The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

[Bloopy]

I'm glad I stuck to my typical 3 beer limit on Tues night. Kinda like practising some Utilitarianism nerd shit to maximise fun over the longer time frame. Less glad I had those fries afterwards though. Had a bit of reflux while trying to get off to sleep and had to wait for my post-nasal drip to stop being horrendous!

I haven't had a drop of alcohol since 2019. Feels good.

 

[MasterpieceMesias]

I don't drink anymore myself, but I may or may not participate in some Mary Jane products on the occasion.

I don't miss the booze...that's for sure

i've never got a big kick out of alcohol tbh. i get drunk socially every now and then (like 2-4 times a year these days) and have fun and all, but i never think to myself wow that was great can't wait to do it again. i do love malt whisky however, as well as that cinnamon jack daniels variant lol, i will sometimes have either/or as a night-cap if i'm in the mood. realistically it's never had enough of an impact on my life for me to put any thought toward quitting, i'll sometimes go months without a drop without it being a conscious decision.

that said, i was hungover as fuck christmas day and that part i could always fucking do without lol

Starting to find less and less enjoyment out of drinking, myself.

Did ya have fun at least?

 

[Slammed]

I haven't been drunk, or even tipsy in about 20 years. Best thing I ever did was give up drinking beer and mixing spirits, coke fucks whiskey. In Oz we have to spend more than $50 before we get to something reasonable in the bourbon/whisky range, but even shit like JD and Beam are creeping up over $50 a bottle in some places now making drinking a really expensive habit.

yeah my whisky stores tend to slowly get depleted over the year and then get slightly restocked by gifts on birthdays/christmas lol

I've never had a drinking problem, I just stopped because it was a waste of money and unhealthy as fuck.

 

[Slammed]

I used to have a drinking problem, I couldn't get enough. But driving the truck fixed me, having to be 00 BAC pretty much 24/7 killed any real drinking I did.

Looking back now at when we used to go through 30+ cans a night or several bottles of Beam and coke, I consider that a waste of money, but back then a carton of 30 only cost us about $25, as did a bottle of Beam. Back then I was single and had a huge disposable income too. These days I don't consider the way I drink to be a waste of money even though prices are more than double what they used to be because I drink what I like when I like and I enjoy it and there is more health risks leaving the house than there is from the amount of alcohol I drink.

Having my whole indigenous side of the family be alcoholics was enough to deter me lmao.

 

[Slammed]

Both my wife and I have had alcoholics in the family, (although she wins with the highest number, must be a WA thing ), but we both decided long ago that moderation is better than absence. When a bottle of whiskey can last 3 months I figure I'm going to die from eating red meat and allowing cows to fart than I am alcohol.

Damn. Yeah funny guy for sure. Great taste in obscure metal. Pretty sure he was the first person I saw mention Dark Tribe.

this is somehow not surprising at all.

yeah i would never have heard perennial faves like heidentum and raise the banners without him, he found a lot of cool BM outside of the usual anus stable. he was also a genuine psychopath who strangled his neighbor’s dog, had a collection of torture porn on vhs and took a fuckload of hardcore drugs, so i’m kinda surprised he lasted this long without either dying or being jailed. actually, i think he’s been dead since about 2017.

the falconsbane thing is funny ‘cause She is as much of an angry militant as before but now she just supports some kind of lefty ‘liberation group’ instead.
