by politely telling them you don't drink over and over and over and over again

if you can't handle that, you can pose as/actually be a designated driver, you won't have to drive them all home b/c uber exists now

Maybe just have a drink you enormous faggot or don't go, or go and just have water. No matter your decision you are still a gigantic faggot and everyone you work with thinks so too.

>>9044927
tell them you have to go to the mosque

even bars have non alcoholic stuff around, hell half the shit in most of the drinks people order contains no alcohol. Just keep ordering coke or juice and if thats really so embarrassing only order drinks when nobody else is in earshot and pretend you're drinking too.

>>9044927
Tell them you don't drink it's not that hard. No one cares Also tell the bar sometimes places do free soft drinks for DDs.

If for whatever stupid and convoluted reason you have concocted in your head that you need to appear to be drinking but not actually drinking like it's some stupid sitcom get a club soda and lime wedge in it looks like gin/vodka tonic and you're fine.

I work in an environment where if you don't drink, you shouldn't be in the job. But we try to be respectable of those who don't, if, like, billing is out with us. Everyone should have fun. Just be firm but polite, and say you don't drink.

But most importantly, DON'T be the person that sits in the corner and has no fun, or judges someone for drinking. The reason people peer pressure others to drink is because they sit in the corner quietly, don't engage in conversation, and make everyone feel uncomfortable because they're mentally tallying any mistake anyone made.

If you're not cool hanging around with a bunch of drinkers, just make an appearance, be cool about it, and leave when you're ready to leave.

Cranberry juice, and nurse it all night. There, you'll only have to explain you don't drink once, and can move on an enjoy your night with your co-workers. Just be social.

Just order a beer and hold it you stupid faggot. Bring it to your lips occasionally but don't swallow, just like what you do irl with other cylinders.

I've got news for you: If your boss drinks and thinks you don't drink, you're fucked. Drinkers don't trust pussfags that don't drink.

>My department is going to a bar as a group, but I don't drink.. How to handle?
Why is the reason that you don't drink? No one asked.

Dieting is a good excuse for not drinking. Driving is as well. Pick either one.

Order a diet Coke with lime. Lime is a common kill-the-artificial-sweetener add-in, so the waitress shouldn't blink. "I need caffeine" will suffice if anyone asks as you order it. Anyone that didn't see you order it will assume it has rum in it.

>>9045493
Drinking impairs your judgement and makes you loosen up your lips. You talk about a lot of random shit you wouldn't normally, and open up to people.

In the context of war that Churchill comes from, if someone chooses not to drink that means he's either hiding something from the rest of the group, doesn't trust them, or plain doesn't accept the people around him as friends/equals.

Never underestimate the literalism of a fundamental baptist.

>>9046604
No, just realistic. If you're competing with another person for promotion and you both are relatively equal in capabilities, who will the boss promote? You, a non-drinker or the other guy who the boss can have a few drinks with and unwind a bit on Friday evenings after work? It's even worse if the job involves travelling with the boss, because he probably doesn't want to have to sit at the hotel bar having a few drinks by himself, although that would be infinitely better than having to sit there with some evangelical retard who is drinking coke. Enjoy getting passed over, faggot.

Nah, that's what you'll be doing as you feel the effects in the next couple of years.

1. Don't go. I'm pretty sure it's illegal to fire you for not going to the bar with coworkers.
At least in America, they can probably roast your ass for that in Japan.

2. Fake drinking.

3. Have a fucking drink. Unless you have the Irish Curse, you're not going to die for sipping on a whiskey and coke. Do you not have any control over yourself and will wake up three days later in Mexico with a wedding band and a tattoo you don't remember getting if you have any alcohol?

Fuck, just tell them you're in AA or something.

>>9047173
So you draw the line at cigarettes for drugs you're advising people to use out of peer pressure?

>>9044998

Why assume it's some sort of moral thing? Some of us just don't like to drink. No real reason. That's a point of pride because drinking is technically a vice. If anyone ever seriously judged you for not drinking, they're completely immature or insecure. Or both. No well-grounded adult gives a shit if you don't drink.

>>9045506

this is so stupid. your just hating on people that don't drink in the same way that people in civics hate on people driving corvettes. it's an insecurity/jealousy because you have a bad habit that they don't.

>>9044927
You could just tell them you don't drink and have an overpriced soda. Hell, you could probably just get water without any awkwardness. Bars are filled with people trying to sober up.

If you're trying to blend in, just get a generic bottle of beer and carry it around with you. If someone tries to buy you a drink, just tell them you're still working on the one you have.

Stop moving goalposts and accept the fact you'll be passed over for promotion because you're incapable of adapting to your professional/social environment. No one is arguing for you to get drunk. We're arguing that if you want to be perceived as a fully participating member of a professional/social group, at least hold a fucking drink. Save your holier than thou prohibition arguments for your Pentocostal poisonous snake handling and venom drinking rituals.

>>9045558

Illogical paranoia. The correct tactic to avoid the problem is to just not drink around them. But your addictions are too strong to allow that, so you blame the other party for NOT drinking like they did something wrong. You're the actual problem.

If your church sect tells you not to drink, you are not a christain

>>9047026

if your boss bases employee promotions on whether or not they drink, it's probably time to find a new job. because soon, you'll be passed over for a promotion because he doesn't like your cologne, or because you don't have tits, or you didn't laugh at his joke during the thanksgiving party.

>>9048009
Regardless of whether your company intentionally bases promotions and stuff on whether you drink, people will subconsciously judge you for your weird ass decisions and crazy religions and will likely trust you less if you cannot even trust yourself with alcohol

Not drinking is a "weird ass decision"? Are fucking insane? That's like saying not smoking, not having a library card, or not wearing your seatbelt is a "weird ass decision" ... you need to recognize that drinking is accepted as a vice and a bad habit and stop trying to deflect your guilt onto people that don't drink. They're literally doing nothing wrong, and no reasonable adult will judge them for it. That's some a fucking teenager would do.

>>9048009

>you need to recognize that drinking is accepted as a vice
No its not, its a normal and more or less expected part of American and European society (and much of the rest of the world too). Its certainly not "wrong" to choose not to drink, but if you tell someone you do not drink they are sure as fuck going to be wondering whether its is for some weird ass religious reasons or some unfortunate health conditions, you will very certainly be judged for this decisions by almost everyone

>>9048045
Moderate drinking is good for human health, its not a vice to anyone but the most insanely religious

>>9044927

Fucking this. No one cares if you don't drink, some might egg you one for like 5 whole minutes but not give a shit. The problem is when fuckers go and get all preachy about shit. "Hey guys I don't drink, also have I told you I don't drink? BTW I don't drink!" So many times I've hated going out with people or inviting non drinkers over just to have them be the most anti-social/I don't drink guys;^) fun killers.

Don't drink and own up to your decisions. Not that hard

Getting shitfaced is a vice. Having a drink isn't. Being proud of abstaining from something that others can do responsibly is silly, unless you're a confessed alcoholic. You're better off just saying you don't drink, and leaving it at that.

Well, also he didn't like the new Queen's husband, Prince Philip, since the very beginning.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1559502/Churchill-doubted-Prince-Philip-could-rule.html
And, after she ascended? Philip announced the new reign of the Montbatten family at a loud country house party. It got back to the Queen's mother and Churchill, of course, who were mortified at the dangerousness of the comment. He sealed his fate by countering Elizabeth and her desire and love for her husband. He was outta there.

>>Moderate drinking is good for human health
>Ethanol is a known carcinogen, though
No, it's not. It's a poor usage of the word carcinogen and it's part of the nanny state government political policies to have deemed it that definition. The correct definition of carcinogen has ALWAYS been that the chemical damages DNA, and when you damage DNA enough, it replicates in a damaged fashion, ie cancer cells.
Ethanol doesn't actually damage DNA. Now abuse of alcohol can increase risks of issues, keyword being risks not causal, from gastic juices, vitamin deficiencies, dehydration state problems, forced metabolizing beyond the normal rate that a liver can handle in a timely period, that can lead to risk of health problems, but it doesn't CAUSE CANCER exactly. That's a big stretch. Use your brain when you throw out your "facts."

There are more articles about cardioprotective nature and health benefits of moderate usage. You won't be getting cancer from alcohol if you don't abuse it. Moderate is pretty damn small amount too. It's always under 2 drinks, and for most, it's only 1 drink a day. That's proven in animal research. When it comes to human research, long term studies have so many factors, you still need to use your brain.

I used to have an intoxilyzer on my car. Ive had to go places and tell friends and family that KNOW I had a DWI and that I have a blow-and-go in my car that I cannot drink over and over and over. So be prepared for that. Id say every 4.5 minutes youll have to tell at least one person you arent drinking and they will also ask "why??????" every single time as well. Get a Sprite or anything clear and bubbly with a lime. This is probably the easiest most non autistic thing you can do. People will stop asking you why you dont have a drink with you until they ask what youre drinking, just say its soda because you dont wanna be tired from alcohol. They will of course ask you to have a different drink but itll be easier to say no if you already have something.

just don't fucking go since you aren't willing to participate. do you hang around smokers while they're smoking on their break?

y'know I don't like people who push anything on anyone, but you getting irrationally angry at the guy you're quoting isn't too keen either.
someone asked a question, and he gave an impartial, informative, well-thought-out answer to the question, properly illuminating the context of the quote as well as its author's intent.

Nothing he said even implies he agrees with the quote. Get mad a pushers, get mad at autists, get mad at judgy people, but directing that anger towards that guy specifically is purely irrational.

I just order soft drinks and tip the bartender well since I usually end up spending less than my friends who do drink.

order a redbull vodka, hold the vodka. you'll be fucking wired and ready to socialize without the hangover.

Donald Trump doesn't drink

Whenever I go to a bar with other people I always order a red bull. I never drink red bull normally, I don't even like it all that much, but that's what I did in the Navy when I was the DD for all the drinkers and it's become a small tradition of mine.

It's funny because they always think I'm gonna go for some kind of mixed drink with the energy drink, but nope. Just the energy drink.

Just order a couple light drinkable lagers and sit on them for and hour or so each , your body should process the 1 standard drink in that time and you won't feel much/ anything.

Poisoning the brain is not revealing, it's changing.

wrong

Can anyone explain why it feels so culty sometimes to be at parties? I've only been to a few, because of friends, but everyone acts the same if they haven't seen me with a cup or a glass in my hand. They try to push a drink onto me, or otherwise berate me. I socialize and talk with people, and loosen up, but even if my behavior is otherwise fine, the fact that I'm not drinking, and my language, while loose, isn't impaired at all, makes people say I need some drinks in me.

Heart condition here, shouldn't drink or have caffeine, but fuck it's so weird how desperate some people seem to have everyone drunk. Why is this?

Sober people tend to observe and remember and tell tales out of school the next day, in my experience.

They're often the neurotics who want to stay in control at all times and take joy in humiliating the drunks later on.

Of course that's not the case for someone with a medical reason like you, but a lot of sober people are sneaky fucks who want to keep the upper hand at all times.

Anyone who takes delight in telling you what you did while blacked out is someone you'll never want to drink around again. They violate some sort of unspoken rule of drunken revelry.

If you're drinking together there really is something culty about it though. You have this ritual, you toast, you start to enter a different state of mind and go on a sort of journey together. There's something deeply bonding about communally getting fucked up, people have been doing it forever and intoxication of some form is a central shared ritual in most cultures. If there is someone standing around who doesn't want to come along on the journey it feels alienating, like he doesn't want to be part of the tribe. That's why it feels insulting if someone won't drink with you, or that's my theory at least.
