Entry 3 - Alchohol Insanity

Mar 17, 2003 23:48

My roomate comes home today, as it is St. Patrick's Day, in a drunken state of which one can hardly describe. I saw him coming home, as we live 14 floors up, and in the two seconds I was watching him, he fell over five times into the snow. I ran downstairs, across the street, and down the path, to basically drag him home, while deflecting two ( Read more... )

I'm going to side with you on this mega.

*thumbs up*

Not because I ever drink a heck of a lot, but because I do on occasion with people, and I seem to have a good time. You points seen to make a tonne of sense. Mostly the 'loss of social anxiety' part. It's true. I have the problem as well. Not so much anymore. But in Montreal, Soph and I went out one night and proceeded to become intoxicated together, and I was able to ask her certain things and say things that I would not normally have asked. Now, when I'm not intoxicated, I can ask even bigger and better things. Express other things. I just had to get started. That's where I will give alcohol 1 point.

alcohol 1
other 0

I'm not feeling the other shite. But yeah. ...what I ment was, I agree

ha ha megadan, I am the populist candidate, it seems! unfortunately though populist policies are usually successful in creating agitation, they typically lack the focus to sustain a credible political movement
Interesting series of points, megadan. I might contend, though, that.. wait. crud, I'm going to bed. The beginning of this comment is too good to waste, so I will return

"No one who's high has ever started a bar fight, no one's ever started a riot at a concert,"

Theres something about saying stuff like this that I don't understand, how do you know that this is true, is there a written record of every bar fight in the history of humanity? Maybe it's just that I know people here go out and smoke up everynight only to come back and just do stupid shit which has on occasion included picking a fight. I'm not looking forward to having to pay for some of the damage they've caused along with the drunks. My house alone had $5000 dollars in damages in the first couple weeks of school, and it's been going up. Hell I'll just write a response to the thread.

I think it's very reasonable to say that those people don't do those things, at least in comparison with alcohol. I have never met a single person under the influence of marijuana who's tendancys have incuded violence.

zeegs March 18 2003, 12:13:24 UTC

but then again I don't think you have to throw the first punch to start a fight.

Re: jigsaw666 March 18 2003, 12:55:01 UTC

well... i suppose not, you could start a fight with words.
But, no offense meant, i don't think you appriciate the sutuation fully, i mean, believe me, people who are stoned do not fight. they might do odd things, but they don't start fights. and they don't finish them either, or end up in the middle of them. You can't fight when you're high.

zeegs March 18 2003, 13:59:25 UTC

maybe i can't fight when i'm high, but the football player who lives two doors down can

Re: jigsaw666 March 18 2003, 16:32:56 UTC

I'm sure he can. But consider a) he's a football player, so he fights when he's sober too, b) he was probably drinking at least some too.

As stated, "you can't fight when you're high".
This is part of the point which I'm trying to prove. If you can't fight when you're high, then how can you defend yourself? You could be raped, robbed, killed, beat, all because you're high. And it may not have happened if you were not, because you could have defended yourself.

From what has been said, I'm lead to assume that a ten year old could kill you if you're high, and thus defenseless.

Um... well in my opinion, fighting is bad. I'm not too worryed about the aliens.

Re: Points of Persuasion sgoodspeed March 19 2003, 21:10:18 UTC

But of course you're not worried about the aliens Dan. But, nor was anyone worried that planes flew into the twin towers on Sept. 11, 2002.

Get my drift?

If you spend your whole life worrying when you ARE sober, what's the point? Life is ment to be lived.
