The last iteration of the moderation discussion thread was a complete disaster. Numerous attempts to keep it on topic fa
Id rather drink 8 beers than smoke a pack of cigs
Hate to break it to you bud, but your destiny is to end up in the ground as worm food just like the rest of us. All that heaven stuff is a fairy tale made up by the elites so you toe the line like a good little sheeple.
I got to where I am through pragmaticism. It starts with overcoming unwanted habits. What I said works, which is what matters.
Pearls. Swine.
On the contrary, I am very much enjoying your word salad of wisdom.
Heaven stuff is separate from power structures that are centered around places of worship in organised religions, which is where the problem lies.
No mention of cathedrals or mosques in their holy books yet still they flock to them.

Or... you find eternity in your bloodline you know. If you have one. Like the elites do.

And these places of worship, they got any particular books they like to use?
Right. I'm saying it's perfectly possible for people to practice their religions and pray privately but boy do they like to make a big show of their piety, with no tangible benefit conferred by their ostentatious public displays in their holy books. Hypocrites and suckers, generally.
Why are you guys comparing 8 beers to 8 cups of coffee? No alcoholic is stopping after beer #8.
Lots of misconceptions about alcoholics posted here, some spread by alcoholics themselves.
dear mods, can we consider anyone posting a robbie williams song going forward to be a hate crime?

Orly? I assume you know this because the government told you what the recommended daily intake is? Check you out, just eating up all that propaganda and asking for more like an obedient little sheeple.
Sounds like you're eminently qualified to characterise others' posts as "misinformation" then.
Also, let me know when you need your taxes done or you need someone to represent you in court, I've been around some accountants and lawyers.

I'm not claiming that because I've been around alcoholics that I know how to drink a lot
I don’t think anyone has mentioned that alcohol is a known carcinogen yet. Any amount is a negative for health, although of course in moderation it won’t be a meaningful uptick in cancer risk. I’m pretty sure moderation in this context is something like two drinks a week max though. Coffee on the other hand is chock full of antioxidants and there’s some evidence that it has protective qualities for the liver and against cardiovascular disease.
Speaking personally as a former partier and now a salads and exercise person, my mood is better on a day to day basis. That has been a a pretty big positive in my life. Drinking and everything else I did was a kind of monotonous drudgery in comparison to the varied ways that I’m active nowadays. To each their own of course but a healthier lifestyle isn’t inherently less fulfilling or more boring.
Don't think so but also not sure in what quantity it does become bad. I think like 400+ mg a day is considered ''too much'' which is 10 cups? maybe more? Not sure I don't drink coffee. Can we just agree that 8 beers a day is bad for you? That 8 Red Bulls a day is also bad for you and that 8 cans of Pepsi is also bad for you? Like the great philosopher Ronaldo once said. Just dr
It’s actually about 3-4 regular sized cups.

The "any amount is a negative" for alcohol thing is a very recent, ultra controversial take with no scientifical consensus which is being pushed by the same people who push all healthy lifestyle extremism, almost none of which come from countries with a healthy consumption of alcohol as a part of culture (Italy, France, Spain).
If you guys want to keep pushing stuff that clearly goes into the face of reality feel free to do so but when France gets one of the highest life expectancy in the world with a diet of meat cheese and red wine in the last decades, you know for a fact "science" telling you that diet is cancerogenic and terrible is just fraudulent science.

Good to hear you’re happy now, but to be honest if your drinking career was monotonous drudgery you were drinking with the wrong people.
