To be fair it's viral.
Quote: "Well, I've tried several different wines and beers at different stages of my life, and my reaction has always been the same. Once you get to my age, you stop giving a crap about certain things. Especially the things you didn't give much of a crap about earlier in your life. I've never given much of a crap about alcohol...

Growing up, I always thought I wasn't an alcohol drinker (yes, I was encouraged to drink from a younger age, but my parents believed it's better to teach responsible drinking over no drinking), every beer and every wine I tried were disgusting and I still find wine and beer disgusting. Instead I drink ciders are spirits - though for Cider I can only drink the good quality stuff and some of the pear ciders too like Kopperburg and I'll go as low as Bulmers, stuff like Brothers and Strongbow are disgusting in my opinion. I entered spirits through girls' drinks like Smirmnoff Ice and later, mixers, like Rum with coke, Jack Daniels with Coke and Jagerbombs/Jagermeister with Red Bull. Recent drinks I've fallen for are Mead and Drambuie.

Because it's enjoyable.
It's a good social thing, it helps you relax with a group of people and you do get a high off of it, if you're partying, it can add to the experience and it does make you feel good. Being drunk is actually enjoyable and it helps you talk to new people more easily - though of course, you need to still be sober enough to make yourself look like an idiot. But people who can't control themselves are either binge drinkers or just can't handle their drink. I'm a responsible drinker, thus I drink, have fun but don't get so out of my head that I collapse in front of traffic.
I enjoy drinking, and I can do it with no consequence, I'm responsible and I don't get hangovers
So I'm what some may refer to as the spawn of Satan. But drinking isn't for everyone, I know people who go to a bar and order a Coke.
Also, for any underage people reading this, don't think I'm condoning underage drinking, I only did in a controlled environment with my parents and I was a teen (15/16), which is legal in the UK...I believe, but typically alcohol + youngsters is a bad idea.
