    Hangovers. Getting arrested for drink driving. Cost. Dehydration. Having to get out of bed several times in the night to get rid of some more. Shouting on the big white telephone. Acting like an idiot when drunk (c.f. DD later this evening, probably). Should I go on? :laugh:

    You missed having Mrs Wife rip your todger off because you met her at the airport drunk. Again.

      To be fair, we both missed one: taste. Though, that depends on the beer and also on how much beer you've already had. :)

        Ouch! But you do have an excuse - it is Luton, and it takes a lot of alcohol to make that tolerable. If DD moved away, he would possibly be teetotal. And United Distillers bankrupt.

            I'm being well behaved and only having the one. Oops, make that two. But Guinness is practically eating so it doesn't count. :laugh: :laugh:

              Not true though. Its an acquired taste, like coffee. I use to hate it. It grew on me. Now the best picture one can draw where a person drewls over a beer is this. Floating slowly down the river. 105 degrees. The sound of slightly rustle in the trees. Oh is it a breeze? I could really use a breeze right now. Pole in hand. Nothing biting. Sun directly over head. I really am thinking we should get into the shade. Sploosh. Did you hear that? Maybe they will start biting soon. Man its freaking hot out today. Sip. Oh man. Its gone. "Hey bro. I am grabbing the last beer." Over my dead body will he.

                    "It depends on the amount of beer you've already had." That has two scopes. For one, it depends on the amount of beer you've had that night. For two, it depends on the amount of that flavor beer you've had in your lifetime. If you've drank PBR all your life ( :(( ), you might not like Guinness.

                            According to some scientists, nothing. In fact it is beneficial and can double your life-span. It's not just beer either, any alcoholic beverage will do. Hooray for scientists[^]

                              I get your point, but I think it shows even more that it is an acquired taste. Regarding beers that night, well thats mostly because its an intoxicant. If I inject you full of morphine I can probablly feed you a cholcolate coated tird and you would be non the wiser. And PBR all your life ( :(( :(( :(( ), correct you probablly wouldn't like Guinnes. But PBR 'technically' still is beer. And you odly are drinking it because dare I say, like the taste. Although it may have taken a lot longer to grow on you:)

                                Anything that takes away your ability to reason and act for yourself is bad. Plus, nothing but health issues from it. Hard to believe some people have convinced themselves that there is nothing wrong with it.

                                  You have to drink like a horse after a long run in order to get soaked or at least to remove the work out of your melon after the working hours. Why I have to pour in my sorry throat half a gallon of some bitter strangely tasting muddy substance when the same effect comes with a two glasses of vodka and tonic. It’s good if it’s a hot summer day, but then I very rarely drink during the day…so I use the beer only for cooking.
