Why do people try alcohol in the first place?

[Anonymous]

Not smart

Peer pressure

conditioned to believe it isn't that bad

because it's not that bad

Because it's a get out of jail free card.

Say you want to ask a girl our but you don't want to be rejected. We'll beer is you wingman coming to the rescue all you have to do is drink a little bit of that magic elixir and not only will it relax you. But it's your shield against rejection. After you're a little buzzed you go up and talk to her. If you're getting on well you ask her out. If she rejects you then you say OK, we'll how bout just a blow job then.😆 I mean she's rejected you at this point does it really matter what her response is?😆 So how is it a shield against rejection you ask? Because if you don't know her and never will see her again who cares if she rejected you. But if you do know her and have to see her again you play it off as though you had drank to much. You can say, "date you? Are you kidding me? I was hammered (you asked her for a blow job remember, what guy in his right mind trying to get a date does that. You see how this aides your claim that you were drunk). Tell her I would have NEVER asked you out sober. See! Your friend beer just turned a rejection of you around into actually a rejection of her.

And that my friend is why people drink beer. No it doesn't taste good. But it gives you plausible deniability.

because as with pretty much any drug, a responsible and limited consumption can be very beneficial for recreative activities. tho arguably not for health.

Because life is short and trying new things is one of the few joys we are allowed in the short time we spend alive.


I tried it and did not like it, but at least I tried it.

Wanna try heroin? I assure you you'll love it.

[NotTacocaT6969]

No, I’m smart enough to know that trying heroin and trying alcohol are not the same.

You should be too.

Everyone I hang out with and live with drink but we drink very little, around two beers a month, we aren't addicted.

If you equate drinking alcohol with using heroin, you are the one who is not very smart.

Same reason people try anal sex...:)

[Christoff92]

They want to try it out

They are curious about the taste.
