"I have about three drinks a week and get drunk maybe once or twice a year. I'd say I'm the picture of moderation, but I'm not really concerned with how you feel about my drinking habits."

I haven't drunk alcohol in over a year, last time I got drunk was maybe almost a decade ago...
I'm sure that'll convince someone? Though it makes it sound like I used to be one too lol.
I really should reduce my consumption, I've always hang around people that tend to get wasted on a weekly basis. Getting tipsy is enjoyable, but more than that is just fucking stupid. I also find it hard to talk about stuff with them, or to do meaningful activities, they just want to drink a lot and act like dumbasses in night clubs. So boring. I should try and find new friends, but I feel like most people act like this, honestly. It's the same when I hang out with strangers. My hard limit is 3 drinks per night now.
Most people don't do this. You need to find friends somewhere other than bars and clubs.
"What do you mean? I don't even drink"
"I've honestly never really thought about it." And then "I don't know, I don't really keep track of how much I drink."
"Fuck you, I can stop whenever I want."
I honestly don't really see the appeal of alcohol. Water on top. Where my hydro homies at?
I never drank anythinng alcoholic in my life. Does that sound alcoholic?
Yeah, if you need help we're there for you
