We are not trucks. We do not have to go on the scale and be weighed. We drink because we can, and because we like it.
That thing! That slithering blob coming toward us!

What is it?

One of my former girlfriends asked me 'why do you need to drink that much?' I replied 'I don't need to, I do it voluntarily.' End of story, we both moved on to the next stage in our lives. Those girls want to be in control, and if you stop drinking for them, they might as well cut your balls off. After the drinking, it will be something else that annoys them - believe me, they have to be protected against themselves, just tell them 'I drink, therefore I am' and stop them from turning into overpowering and controlling bitches. You're a man, and you're entitled to your vodka highballs and your BJ's. That's just the way things are.

oh silly, why do you have to drag sexism into this? I'm a woman, and I am entitled to my bourbon and my champagne and my freedom from an annoying boy nattering at me.

Sexism? Me? Dear Savage, I just wrote the truth as I see it. After all, this is The Pub, right, where you can't hold a grudge against a guy expressing his honest opinion?

But I agree with you that not all women are like this. Mi esposa, she loves to drink and she can hold her liquor too.

If it wasn't drinking, it would be something else.
Case in point: I had a girlfriend, when I was bartending, was dating just before I started bartending, never cheated on her or flirted with the female patrons, etc. Every now and again she would get into this "It's either you quit this job or we break up" mode. I don't know what would bring this about; it even happened a few times WHILE I was working and she was hanging out there. I never really got that.

I work for a whole gaggle of the species, and though you think you have an insight through your Mom, Wife, and Daughter,
they can still come out of the left field bleachers like a half-full bottle of Rolling Rock smashed upside your head.

They are without doubt the main cause of drunkeness, so we have that to thank them for, but also cause the depression that leads you to the depressant.

I don't know if there's enough booze planetwide to cure my despondancy tonight. It'd be a shotgun at zero paces on the lawn save for my respect for ES personnel.

Heh, trying to understand women is probably not entirely possible. Safe to say that booze will always sort you out :-) What was that WC fields quote? Something about being grateful to the woman who drove him to drink?

Aaah, women, you can't live with them and you can't kill them all.

Get a bigger glass. Then you can have less than 8 and she'll be happy.
