Man, are we a bunch of drinkers?
 
I was looking in our OT forum just now and 7 of the 14 threads I could see on screen were about drinking (including the one espresso thread).

At least we're trying to quit smoking.

DerHoggz 01-04-2013 04:35 AM

I'm drinking coffee as I type this.

This.

But we also have good taste apparently.

Are you drunk-posting Matt?

I think it makes sense, most gigs are in bars, and what do most people do in bars? drink. So naturally we're bound to drink eventually.

I think it's because *someone* just necro'ed every scotch thread there ever was on TB :ninja:

68Goldfish 01-04-2013 08:00 AM

Necro'ed......that's messed up. But funny.
I've never heard that before.

I was actually thinking about starting a "are you trying to quit drinking this year" thread, but figured I'd be the only one in it. :(

Not quitting, but I am drinking less. And by less, I mean every other day, and a two beer limit at gigs.

Today's my day off.
you're damn right i'm having a glass of whiskey at noon.

boynamedsuse 01-04-2013 10:03 AM

Just finished off a Mochachino and it's barely 10:00 a.m. here. Another hard core drinker. :) :p

Sipping tons of espresso, but I haven't had a drink since Clinton was in office.

Why wait till noon? On my days off, since I still get up at 5 am and am asleep by 9, I might have a beer at 10 am....

I think most of us drink things...some of us even drink water! :eek:

Btw I'm drinking a Vietnamese coffee as I type this :D

I just finished a 3-week hiatus, and am trying to get it down to maybe twice/wk. I was drinking a beer or two every other day for a while and it felt like too much. I definitely noticed the difference in my body once I cut it down...no longer feel like "bleh" all the time.

Good to hear! I've been needing to cut back, myself. Unfortunately, this probably will mean I'll need to stop hanging out with certain friends of mine :hmm:

Try rum at 11:00a. I've done it on vacation.

Not for me. I never drink alcohol.
