You're right - it does sound stuck up, but please remember that I'm also being honest. I dislike the company of intoxicated people, and I feel genuine disgust when I see people who are drunk.Originally Posted by withered
When I drive downtown and night and catch a glimpse of a young girl sitting in the gutter with a bottle in her hand, I feel sick to my stomach, and it sometimes makes me feel very depressed - so depressed that I'm ashamed to be part of the same race as the drunkard. It is a great shame that a lot of people cannot enjoy their alcohol in a responsible manner.
If a person can be responsible with drink, then I'm happy for them, and I wish them a good time. If a person cannot be responsible, then I choose to have nothing to do with them. Why? For my own safety ... and theirs.
On a personal note, I choose not to drink any alcohol, and I have been drink-free for nearly two years now. Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against people who do drink, but I wouldn't want to drink any spirits myself. I don't think I'm "better" than anyone else, either. It's simply my choice of life, and it works for me.
Enjoy your Jack Daniels reponsibly, everyone.
