How many drinks do you have per week?

[DickieKnee]

That still isn't any better.

I'd say the whole night would cost them 300-400. Uber,drinks, feed, more drinks and Uber home

 

[Foxx]

Used to be too many. Now I prefer healthier outlet methods.

 

[FRUMPY]

I had a few yesterdee. I think my liver will be OK if I only have a few this year when Hawks win

I see Frumpy has been suspended again? Have to be careful not to get TKO-ed on points Procrastinator style?

I went to the footy on Saturday night and was lamenting not bringing any tea, oh how things have changed.

I dunno pretty much just whatever, all types. Only really started to drink it maybe 5 years ago, prefer coffee but its also good for a switch.

Every couple of years I'll ask my wife to make me a cup of tea, then take a sip and go "mmm.. nope still don't like tea" and then go make a coffee instead

Need to get a taste for it almost like booze, I think I was staying somewhere on for a bit and there was no coffee so was forced to drink instead and got used to it.

I'm a very rare drinker now days.

I generally only drink when I'm out or at the footy now days. I just don't really have an interest in drinking anymore.

Unless it's a special occasion the hangover just isn't worth it as you get older.

 

[Cuzz09]

I pretty much go for a bottle of red over beer these days.

Feels more relaxing.

it has to be Yorkshire Tea.

doesnt really work with our water but still bangs/slaps/claps.

I drink beers every day anyway.

 

[Deleted member 219144]

or you're permanently hung over and don't realise it because you never have a long enough break to tell the difference

this isnt how alcohol works.

reality is Australia's drinking culture is pretty ****ed. a friend of mine is from Manchester and was shocked by how normalised a six pack or bottle of wine is.

somehow we have a high life expectancy and our medical system is performing better than the NHS (despite the 'our hospitals r overflowing!!!!' reddit rhetoric of covid).

Australians generally have Anglo-Saxon or Anglo-Celtic or southern European genes.

I couldn't imagine my life without alcohol and don't want to ever give it up. it'll probably be the thing that kills me but at least you meet chicks drinking beers. you don't meet chicks with a butter chicken and stuffed wings off of Uber Eats.

 

[Kram]

Yeah I've gone back but only beers and only on weekends.

Keep the work and fitness stuff during the week clean.

 

[Deleted member 219144]

Georgie Best wore out his second liver.

Paul Gascoigne didnt get pissed off of two bottles of Gordons and a crate of cans (15 500ml cans).

Think I've done that maybe twice solo. a bottle of spirits kicks my arse. 12 cans gets me feeling very very good.

it's all about your genes really.

once you stop eating to drink more youre ****ed. you need to eat.

 

[BomberManU]

Used to drink a lot, in my twenties, then dropped off once married and having our son. My dad died in 2010 and it was a slow, very painful process for him that knocked us all around. Without realising it, I started drinking 2 - 3 stubbies every night, for about 18 months. Became a habit that was surprisingly hard to break. I live a quiet life now and have no problem moderating drinking alcohol (I only drink beer), on average I'd say 4 beers per week, which I thoroughly enjoy.

I didn't mean literally a permanent hang over.

I meant if you drink 7 days a week how you feel in the mornings would be normalised.

 

[Cuzz09]

I'm cutting right back as of this weekend.

Not finding any benefits from drinking anymore.

Don't really get a nice buzz anymore and it's all a bit samey and meh.

Gonna just go alc free til Xmas (minimum) and try n feel a bit better in general.

Is anyone on here an alcoholic?

I can't tell if my six beers 2-3 nights a week and 10+bottleofwine/going out is completely ****ed or not that weird for an unmarried, childless 30 year old.

Nah it's fine.

Think alco is like daily bottles of scotch n shit

It's definitely excessive.

 

[Gough]

It's definitely excessive.

Depends on what booze does to you. If it makes you shouty or argumentative and you wake up feeling like shit the next morning it's best avoided. If it doesn't do that and you get up fine the next day then it's doable,

Makes me completely fine. no fights, no scraps, no dramas. just find it very relaxing. most likely due to being a highly strung / stressed person.

I'll have a few nights where I only have two or three but I'll also have a six pack a couple of times a week and three nights where I'm having 15-20 standards.

Most of that is after 5pm but sometimes I'll start at 2-3pm if I'm wfh/weekends.

 

[gaskin]

As someone that has never been much of a drinker it does seem pretty excessive. But, if it is not hampering your day to day life, your relationships, or hamstringing you financially then I don't really see too much of an issue unless you start using it as a crutch.
