Hey /fit/, let me ask you something. Should I drink? I mean, I don't abstain from it because I'm afraid I'm going to get fat. I understand that a little bit of drinking won't kill my gains or anything like that. It's more of a mental thing, like, I can't really get down with feeling foggy in the head. Am I just being stupid? Should I quit thinking and just have a drink, or am I right to stay away from it?
Alcohol is the worst part of western culture and should be detested like the heroin it is.

Then why drink in the first place?

I decided a while back to just get black out drunk every new years, so much so that you can pass another year without wanting the liquid jew.
I love gin and tonic, like this guy said >>39746788
I usually drop by the bar near my office to just straight up down 5 shots straight, leave, then sleep.
What other drinks should I try? I've been avoiding beer.

Vodka in pineapple juice isn't bad
Despite it being mid-way between H.S teen and tropical tourist tier

You have to go back shitskin.
As someone who is trying desperately to kick their alcoholism, just stay away from it, maybe at parties or social gatherings, or if you're a genuine connoisseur, maybe a nice glass of whatever the hell you like, but overall just stay away. It's literally ruined my life and my physique, as well as sent me into a depression like no other, just stay the fuck away.

Stop trying to shove your religion down everyone elses' throats, Islamist

OP there's nothing morally wrong with having the occasional drink with friends, but if you don't like the way it makes you feel then by all means don't do it, and by the way it's uncool for your friends to try to pressure you into doing it anyway, real friends should respect your personal choices in such matters.

Caffeine and alcohol are miles apart in toxicity. Drink in moderation and with moderation I mean no more than 2 glasses a WEEK

If you don't like how it feels then don't do it. That's easy.
If you do like how it feels then consider it a treat, like sugary desserts. You're better off without it but can have some on special occasions. Don't eat cake or drink beer by yourself, you sad fuck, but maybe at a social event or your friend's birthday party you might have a piece of cake or a couple of beers/shots/whatever.
