<p>These posts are hilarious...
I am by no means a partier or heavy drinker. A bunch of y'all need to lighten up.</p>
<p>On average? 3 ish. But during something like Mardi Gras, around a 6 (but Mardi Gras and the major festivals are exceptions...).</p>
<p>WUSTL</p>
<p>This all changes so easily. I went from a 1 to a 6 in my first year at college.</p>

<p>First of all - I never said I was intelligent.
Second of all - I'm saying not only idiots drink. </p>
<p>Thats it. Some smart people drink and others don't. Some idiots drink. Others don't. PERIOD.</p>

Because of the snowball effect. Once you get in a car and start ****ing with other people's lives it's OD.

<p>Another false assumption. Not everyone who drinks is dumb enough to drink AND drive. You need to get your facts straight.</p>

People drink because they have found a person who has beaten them in something they were good at. I.E. school, sports, etc. </p>
<p>Nobody on this earth wants to be stupid or feel stupid... thus they drown themselves in this filth of fermented sugar to live in their own buzzed world where they can F-up their lives and claim they are better than everyone...

<p>No.</p>
<p>lol @ some people in this thread who act all self-righteous and all superior because they're too high and mighty to drink</p>
<p>drinking isn't some evil thing like DARE taught you to believe. It's just something to do with your friends--you know, something "fun", the opposite of studying your SAT or whatever you guys do on your free time.</p>
<p>^lol @ you thinking that the only way to have "fun" is by drinking</p>

Come back to me the day drunk driving accidents and DUI's are gone for good.</p>

<p>Yet still, drinking AND driving do not go hand in hand. Only an idiot would do that. Just because someone drinks does not mean they will drive. It's why you declare an official designated driver if you're going out.</p>
<p>Drunk driving involves drinking first, or did I get that wrong...?</p>
<p>Stealing involves living first. OMG living results in stealing!</p>
<p>Anyway, I respect your choice not to drink, piccolo. It is great that you understand that alcohol is not necessary to have fun. However, it does help, and many of us choose to partake in it.</p>
<p>Assuming the drinking is in moderation and not done stupidly (e.g., drunk driving), one could replace drinking with any other activity in which people partake to have fun.</p>
<p>For instance, if you like bowling and I like sailing and bowling, would you "lol" at me thinking that the only way to have "fun" is by sailing?</p>
<p>It's just an activity. Get off your high horse.</p>
<p>^ Your logic is impeccable.</p>
<p>Is piccolojunior seriously at Harvard?</p>
<p>Heh.</p>
<p>friedrice, why is it wrong to just think of drinking as an "activity"?</p>
<p>You certainly don't need to drink to have fun.</p>
<p>So long as you don't make a fool out of yourself, (and you don't get behind the wheel of a car) I really don't see what harm can come of it.</p>
<p>lol picoolojunior sounds like my 5th grade DARE instructor</p>
<p>picoolo? engrish FTW</p>
<p>It's funny how a few words can make so many people get all homotional on the net. Also...*** are you talking about a "high horse." This is the internet, you take anything too seriously that's your problem, not mine lol</p>
<p>It's true what they say:</p>
<p>Internet arguments are like the Special Olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded.</p>
<p>This argument is just pointless.</p>
<p>I don't even know how it got started.</p>
<p>Drinking is illegal in the US. If you break the law, you should be arrested and fined. The end!</p>
<p>Seriously, I stand by that statement completely. I don't care how fun it is, whether it is legal in other countries (in which I lived, by the way), or how harmless it could theoretically be (assuming that you DON'T do anything drunk people usually do). It's still illegal, and I will not hesitate to report people who drink. Fortunately, I have never been in that situation.</p>
<p>We're not even talking about the moral right to drink here. If it's illegal, you have to fight the law, not break it.</p>
<p>I don't believe that legality precedes ethics. That's the kind of mentality that leads to Nazi Germany. All that was was a bunch of yous putting the law ahead of their own feelings about how they should have been treating Jews.</p>
