You'll get a beer belly Dx and itll kinda mess up your health. Even if you do have a good time with it most likely you wont be able to remember anywaysss soooo:P
I drink. I drank two nights ago.
I mean there are plenty of reasons not to: if you are an irresponsible drunk and decide to drive you can kill other people or yourselves, hangovers suck and make people slack on productivity, it causes long-term brain damage (unlike weed interestingly), it is hard on your liver, it is an easy way to gain unwanted, unhealthy weight, lots of types of alcohol tastes awful...the list goes on.
But there are definite benefits. It boils down to how much you drink, and how often you drink. I went to a concert on sunday night and drank four beers. Problem? Not in my opinion. But I wasn't blacked out, I wasn't acting a fool, and I woke up the next morning without a hangover ready for school.
If you aren't in control of yourself, real control, alcohol can be very bad, even disastrous. But it isn't explicitly bad. Very few things are.
--Edit--
Ashely stated that that it is stupid to drink, yet had a humorous amount of gramatical errors. Other people said it will kill you. Don't not drink because you think it will kill you; that is an irrational belief. It will only kill you if you drink constantly. Anti-depressants can kill people, but they are still prescribed everyday. Drinking != Stupid. Yes, people are stupid while drinking, but that doesn't make drinking stupid.
Don't drink because its not productive, and too many people view it as the only way to have fun.
If somebody has a great time drinking, then dies five years earlier than they would have, is that really all too bad? Quality>Quantity when it comes to life.
Well Lets see:
1) Cirrosis
2) Detox
3) Having to go to AA meetings
4) Loss of money
5) Embarrassment in front of people who used to respect you
6) Saying stupid things and getting into fights
7) Not having control of yourself and having to apologize for things you dont remember
8) Its a depressant and gradually will make you sad after the euphoria of being in a stupor wears off.
9) Hangover
10) Wine stains your teeth
11) It is very fattening
12) Its a poison you are putting into your body with all the effects on the brain
13) If you get drunk and pass out you can choke on your own vomit
I do drink but not to the point of being drunk. Just have a couple usually in the summer at the cottage or late if at a sports game or a party. Its all about moderation there are reasons to drink to its just something you have to be really careful with and its all about maturity and responsibility.
because marijuana is a better alternative.
you don't puke after getting high, you can use the munchies as an oportunity to eat your vegatables because everything tastes awsome, your tv looks like a movie theater, and music makes you higher.
it also doesn't mess up your liver, and contrary to popular belief doesn't kill brain cells.
There's no point to drink. It's nasty and hello? It can kill you! Or even if it just shortens your life it's stupid why would anyone wanna drink it just to have fun? There plenty of fun things in the world that IS healthy. Life is better if your healthy and drinking alcohol is bullcrap I'm tired of this careless world people not giving a crap about there health it's ridiculous. Lol sorry just explaining my opinion ;P
Drinking, where can I even start. I drink almost everyday, its part of life, I feel no negative side effects and my mood improves when I do. Everything and anything will kill you, you only live once so you might as well live it up.
I'm from Wisconsin; out drinking your state since 1848
These other people are stupid and shouldn't be allowed to reproduce. People like them are the reason why there is so much ignorance in the world. Everything is bad if you do it to much. But if you do it in moderation its fine, and can only make your life better. Tell me how many beer drinkers you know who are screw ups? Probably a small amount of the total you know.
it dosent make you smarter or happier or skinier or prettier it dosent make people like you,it dosent make guys like you more, it dosent earn you any more money than you already make,and it dosent make your life longer
It has a bad affect on moods and worsens depression. i find if i get very drunk, i'll feel really sad at the end of the night and down for a few days later
If u drink to much u can get achool poison or u can drink it and get adduced to it and become and acholic
im dont drink acohal nd nevr wil but unless u want to die earlyier than u want to i suggest u shouldnt ok NEVER EVER EVEN THINK ABOUT DRINKING ACOHAL u WILL DIE!!!
In the US if you ever went to school, or watched tv, or read newspapers, there is no purpose in asking this question.
It can kill you, damageing your brain cells and liver.
People tend to do stupid things when their drunk.
For example cheating on their bf/gf.
No
It can kill u or others and that's plenty for me
