Beign home with family on New Year's Eve
Oh God there's nothing worse, especially if it's just immediate family.
I spent new years with the family last year, and I was in bed by 1. Luckily this year we are going into the city
It's awesome how the hate thread has almost double the replies in half the time of the love thread.
The one thing worse than unemployment, is having lots of job offers coming at once.
Snow.
Shoveling snow.
Scraping the car.
Cold weather.
Runny noses.
Dry skin.
WINTER.
exactly, it is just immediate family, and I'll be in bed on about 1. Ah, going to the city. That's what I wanted to do, but all of my friends are on some holidays, or working.
^ if I'm prying ignore me . . . but why force yourself to eat something you really don't like?
I'm a bona fide meat eater but have a stack of friends who don't eat meat at all and we always manage to come up with a more than a few tasty vegie morsels to satisfy all at celebrations . . . but if you are going to hitch yourself back to the meat eating carnivorous wagon ease in there . . . i wouldn't be rushing for a wagyu steak straight up
I disagree strongly, I would rather have teenage girls be more sure that their drink hasn't been tampered with than have them cracking open a bottle of cheap vodka and passing it around to god know who.Okay, I just want to say straight out that I hate alcopops/pre-mixed drinks. Cruisers, breezers, Jack and cokes, etc. They should be illegal or something. They basically encourage adolescents and teenagers to drink, and excessively. If you want to drink, you should be able to appreciate the natural tastes rather than drinking idiot's cordial. The world would be a damn sight better off without them. Not that it'd stop people from mixing drinks themselves, but that's their problem - at least then it's personal, rather than in-your-face advertising.

I saw a bunch of youths with the nastiest jug of sherry over new years, if our moralistic leaders hadn't cracked down on alcopops that stupidity could have been avoided.
The fact that clubs can serve this ABC shots (Absinthe, Bacardi and something else, all mixed around like 70% or something) continually despite patrons being blind amazes me... a friend blew .295 i think on the breath tester, and then proceeded to down more of these shots.
There is no reward, it is an exceptionally pointless drug, I think that you are asking the wrong rhetorical questions for dealing with a cultural attitude towards drinking which swings from parents with a puritanical disdain for drinking when it is on the news to being the ones who buy a case of bacardi for their kids.I'm going to assume that your drink has never been spiked with a daterape drug.
Granted, I've seen people younger than me get trashed on just about everything, whether cheap goon, beer or absinthe - but considerably more often than anything, it's premixed drinks. I'm not trying to get conservative here, they should be having fun - but why give them drinks that taste like soft drinks, feel like soft drinks, but get you fucked up? How is there anything good about it? What is the reward? There's nothing to savour, they're drinks aimed at younger people with the intention of getting them wasted. That's it.
Really, you're going to be seeing teens drink unthinkable things like muddy sherry regardless of what happens.
Well, now it's over, how was it?? Because in the end my night was kinda sucky. We went to this club just past the city, pain in the ass to get to and from, the club was like 20 feet underground, the club was pretty shit, drinks were ridiculously overpriced, there was no midnight romance or any romance from then on in fact.
Maybe new year's eve really is overrated.

Binge drinking isn't reducible to the availability of premixed drinks, I am very contemptuous towards the current governments prohibitionist approach of higher taxation and restrictions. Kids get wasted on premixes because they are cheap, when that tart-fuel becomes more expensive they get wasted on Stones Original Green Ginger Wine.
