    Nice to see racist stereotypes alive and well. Le sigh.

    You mean people assume that the Irish drink a lot? YouDon'tSay.gif

    I think that when it's no longer fun (or worth it) to have a drink then it's time to stop.

    Because someone who is Irish asked the OP if they were Irish. Evidently, that's offensive.

    .. it was a total waste of time and calories.

    That's exactly what I tell my cousins and niblings about alcohol when they're about to go off to college: waste of time and calories.

    You could just pop some pills instead.

    I've been dieting for 7 months straight now with daily calories between 1000-1550 per day and the occasional 2000 calorie day. I've cut way back on my drinking because of the calories. But the few times I've drank heavily, Super Bowl Sunday and last night in particular, I allocated for the calories but couldn't even catch a buzz. At Super Bowl I was drinking vodka and Crystal Light, last night I drank an entire bottle of red wine. There have been at least a half dozen other times since the diet that I've felt like it was a total waste of time and calories. Any thoughts? Any medical reasons why dieting deters drunkeness?

    That bolded part is maybe the most concerning post I have read recently.
    hmm. People say that on here all the time about the things they eat and drink. I've seen many folks say what they ate/drank was a waste of calories. I've seen it recently for store-bought cake, for a restaurant appetizer, for a slice of someone else's entree... is it the "time" part that makes it more concerning? Or simply because it involves alcohol. Perhaps it's an issue. Perhaps it's just an indication of a shift in priorities. I dunno. I'm not a doctor, or a specialist in alcohol or alcohol issues.

    It sounds like the OP thinks they are a waste because she didn't get drunk. If you are drinking to get drunk and disappointed about your lack of drunkenness -- you might want to consider help.

    Difference between "I didn't enjoy the smoky sweet flavor" and "I didn't wear a lampshade"

    Though I think that catching a buzz or relaxing is a valid reason for drinking.

    Lots of folks drink to get drunk to some extent. I don't think they all need "help" because they want to get drunk. But, okay.
