*The tee-totallers have their own celebration*

*no booze, just tea and biscuits*

...

Yeah. It's really jumping over here at the forge.

So. This alcohol. *pokes at her palm pilot* Says it's a colorless, volatie liquid formed by the fermentation of sugar and has an intoxicating effect on certain carbon-based life forms.

Are we carbon based?

And can you define "intoxicating"? I'm not getting a satisfactory answer here.

. . .

Spin round and round really fast, giggle at inane things, find completely unsuitable people attractive, get moody, go to sleep, don't have anything to drink for hours on end then bang your head against a wall a few times.

That'll give you a pretty good idea of the sensations you experience when drunk and afterwards. Clear? >:|

Why on earth would anyone want to waste their time doing that?

Because it stops them from facing other things.

((AND IT'S FUN!))

SHUT UP!

Okay. Odd child.

Well, you're young, there's a lot of things you haven't experienced yet and some things can only be fully understood with direct experience.

*takes your palm pilot off you, runs it on to the entry on "Phenomenology" and hands it back to you* :\

*reads*

Oh. So, when I feel like I need to hide from something I can drink this "alcohol" and then I'll understand?

Thank you. You've been most helpful.

BUT! Just because you can do something, that doesn't mean you should.

Is this about self-control? I know all about self-control. I don't have very good self-control. Aule thinks I need to work on it.

*nods* Appetite vs. intellect. Desire vs. judgement.

I was told recently that I am lacking in good judgement. How does one obtain that?

Uhm...ooh, that's a tough one, there's lots of things you can do. Ask for advice, think about the consquences that are likely to result from your actions...

Uh...look up normative ethics. *nod* That should help.

:) *opens the to-do list file on her palm pilot and makes a note to study "normative ethics"*

Thank you. :)

*hops off to play (read: study)*
