Is it my duty as a bum to get drunk on a sunday night?

I want to die so badly.

I can't get over a woman that ill never be able to be with. I literally can't even stop dreaming about her

>not already being drunk since the morning

Am I the only one who gets wicked hangovers from steel reserve? I have never had a worse headache than the morning after drinking a couple of those 40s.

Took me 12 years but I stopped caring to the point that it was no longer constant pain.

And Oz/Kiwi fags ITT?

I found a folder of Veeky Forums pictures on a random HDD from 8 years ago. It's a goldmine.

Friends always say they can smell alcohol on me, even when I haven't had a drink in a day. What gives?

Haven't properly cleaned your clothes, or sweating out alcohol maybe? Might just be some mental bias if they expect you to smell like that because of some reputation you've developed.

I got MacArthur's blended scotch, instead of what I originally ordered but I am not going to complain because this is pretty good stuff

First drink of day at 1 pm

I think liver damage has finally set in after 9 years of daily drinking. It's taking less and less to get me drunk, An my side is hurting more and more.

I did pretty good this month don't ya think?

All I see is 7 days worth of drinking.

>7 days
Missing quite a few wine bottles and beer cans there, chap.

I only drink on weekends, ever since I've come down on my meds that block dopamine I've been able to feel the dopamine rush from booze again. Today I'm going to start drinking in an hour when the rugby is on, will this turn into a bad habit?

Getting rid of those was my personal walk of shame.
So i switched to boxed wine.

Problem solved.

I take my recycling to the curb late at night. I've been caught twice by my neighbors wife bringing months of handles to the curb, The look of concern on a complete strangers face about your well-being is truly a shameful experience.

I think by now she knows I'm ashamed of it and that I drop them off at night because I'm sure she sees the boxes of liquor bottles at the curb every month

Recycling plastic is a scam anyway, it's cheaper to make new plastic.

>inb4 but muh landfills

I don't do it because I give a shit about the environment or I get money, I do it because I only get 1 trash can to use bi weekly and if i filled it with handles I would have no room to put actual trash. I fill it with anything plastic, Even non recyclable shit.

>drink 18 beers
>wake up crisp and refreshed
>drink half a glass of wine
>throbbing headache

What is this shit.

2 days ago I had one 500ml beer, and yesterday I was sober. Tonight, drinking again, not that much, but idk what'll happen tomorrow. Everytime I drink alone I miss the fuck out of my ex. I was supposed to marry her.

Probably a mixture of lack of hydration and fusel alcohols.

>UV, Pinnacle, Burnett's

Quitting for real this time guys, no takesy backsies

are you sure though

>month

The fuck? That's about a week's worth.

Yes i really mean it this time, obviously my brain does not understand the notion of moderation.

I really meant it a lot of times.

>leave fetish porn up on my big screen
>passed out drunk
>mom knocks on my door
>don't realize what's on the tv
>let her in and try to compose myself
>she obviously saw it before I could shut the tv off
>doesn't say anything

The silence is almost as awkward as if she called me out on it

Who cares you're an adult

GF of 3 years broke up with me today

I've been sober for 6 months, just bought a fifth of vodka. Ambivalent about being back, but I'm here bros

Your mom has done worse with your dad.

My ex is fucking my best friend and they're really happy together. A toast to being single and bitter.

I would probably kill them both.

Pretty much impossible to avoid drinking as soon as a crisis hits, no matter how long I've been sober. Doomed i tell ya

When people ask me to explain alcoholism i tell them it's like walking on a tightrope in the sense that it doesn't take much to lose your balance. The kicker is you secretly enjoy it when you do

Yep. With me, I'm extreme with everything though. "Why do you chug down your drinks and blackout?!" "You're an alcoholic!"

Yeah, but then I tell them to watch me drink a glass of water, or a can of soda. SAME CHUGGING

Why do I drink though? Uh, well, same reason I surf, or mountain bike, or snowboard... It's FUN.

>accidentally pour the remaining beer into my half full glass of vodka

I know this feel all too well

I see no problem here

it's the only thing i know guarantees a hangover for me regardless of how little or how much i have

this happened to me, i would have two beers an hour before work and be too drunk to function

Polished off a bottle of jameson last night and not too pleased with the hangover i got

SOunds good 2 me

went to Aldi today. they have an italian chianti for $4.99 so i got 2 kek. it's pretty good

now it just tastes like flat beer

Alcohol tastes like shit anyway, if I could be drunk without having to drink anything I'd be delighted

if you drink more than a fifth a day, you will always smell like alcohol

Idk whats happening but it takes me more and more to get drunk, fuck you.

How are you doing now? Same symptoms when you drink?

Just three more house until my sister leaves and I can get drunk, God damn time hurry up

So I fell off the wagon again, everything has gone to shit. My girlfriend was killed an a car crash a month or so ago and I just can't deal with it sober. So I'm back.

How are you all doing? Are smirnoffbro and simpsonbro still here?

No they're gone.

>My girlfriend was killed an a car crash a month or so ago and I just can't deal with it sober. So I'm back.
Fuck man, sucks to hear that. Hope you can find a way to make it through that shit

smirnoffbro is around, but mostly sober seems like. simpsonbro kicked the bucket seems like. rip. I'm still here, sober for today, but I'm sure I'll be hearing music from my motherboard again soon enough.

I'm really sorry man, I really am.
I'll pray for you man

I thinks simpson killed himself finally. Thank god

I'm more of a bourbon guy but this scotch is pretty good.

Now I usually just get tired and fall asleep after a couple

Bitches don't know about my Dutch gin.

Jenever.

The recipe is supposed to be older than gin.

...

>prayers

Appreciate the thoughts lads. It has been really shit, felt for a while like my life was actually going somewhere good for a change but I suppose even that can't happen for me. I get the pit in the stomach thing all the time, but it turns out drink makes that go away a bit so here I am. I just feel empty all the time and can't see any sort of future. Work have been great about it, but I can't help feeling their sympathy will run out soon
Glad he seems to have his shit together. Shame about simpsonbo, he was nice. Hope you are well mate, how are the efforts to get sober?

>haven't drank daily in almost a year
>never had bad withdrawals

Now
>go on a binge on Friday
>get high heart rate and other bad shit when I'm hungover

Why is this the case? Doesn't make any sense, I'm only 21

kindling

So no matter what I'm at a fixed level of sensitivity to alcohol? Pretty shit

Oh no no it’s not fixed. It’ll get much worse.

How quickly will it get worse?

Never know, it amplifies for me at different times. Fucked up shit, man.

Honestly how bad is it to drink alone? When does it become a problem?

it becomes a problem when it becomes a problem, man. there's nothing wrong with having a few drinks and playing vidya or something to unwind on a thursday evening. when your desire to drink causes you to neglect your responsibilities, you have a problem. also, when you find that you can't enjoy your own company unless you're drunk, that's a pretty good indicator.

Who do you argue with when you drink alone?

It's horrible. Honestly feels like I'm going to have a heart attack.

How do you guys afford drinking multiple handles per week, or even day? Are you somehow full blast alcoholics but also holding down decent enough jobs to pay for all that?

>tfw student that can't afford more than the swilliest of swill

I work for my families company and they would never fire me.

I also don't spend a ton of money on booze, I buy 3 handles a week @ 10.99 a handle. I spend more than that on gas

i got the homemade tonight, not very alcoholic. I found your suppose to let it ferment for 4 weeks and treat it with bentonite and all this stuff. I will try that some time.

My wife is a doctor and I'm a stay at home dad. I only drink about a pint/day, and only after she gets home from work. I really can't imagine drinking a handle in a day. You're basically dead at that point.

Steele reserve is literally the skunkiest, most lowlife beer available. It's probably got a mercury content warning on it. Why wouldn't you get wicked hangovers from it?

I started buying booze only in plastic bottles, so I can just burn them when I'm done because I was tired of the clink of shame dragging this shit out to the curb.

That's a idea. You need a burn permit where I live to burn shit...year round. I'd rather save that money and buy vodka with it...

Plus burning 16handles a month would be extremely time consuming. like half my yard would be plastic by the end of one year

what? how do you burn them?

I am a meme farmer.

I....make fire, and put it close to them, and they burn

I've been sober for like two years, and I can't remember exactly how I afforded to stay drunk, but it was something like I worked a little and paid for some of it myself, and when I could I just hit up my standard enablers and they bought it for me, or I just flat out stole booze or money from people.

>not eat anything all day
>that first drink
Hits you like a truck. Weeew

>one drink "hitting you like a truck"

kek

Nigga, I didn't say that I was incapacitated, just the amount of impact it has compared to the next couple of drinks.
It's not about the speed by the acceleration

I have 5 or 6 in the morning before I even feed my dog, An that is far from feeling like "hitting you like a truck". It just gets you moving nigga

Not being a dick or dicksizing, But I do idolize you for feeling 1 shot. I haven't felt that in a literal decade....Those were better/cheaper times

Whatever man, I'll continue to enjoy my sauce after you're in the ground due to your abuse.
Delayed gratification makes everything better

>My wife is a doctor and I'm a stay at home dad

Are you living the good life?

I wasn't being a dick man. Or at least I didn't intend to sound like it


Have a good night tonight brosis

Sorry for being so defensive. I'm just a bundle of hatred sometimes, not that excuses anything.
I hope your night goes well too.

It's cool man, I get like that sometimes too.

No hard feelings!

What are you doing tonight? Anything fun?

I'm just drinking some gin and water and replacing a water pump on my sisters car. Nice and relaxing night

Drinking rum and coke, and watching a TV show that fucks with my emotions. Rectified. About a guy that went to death for 19 years before being let go on a technicality. He's all fucked up and his family's all fucked up.
It's good but a little pretentious.

I spent most of the day with my 4 year old nephew. Feels pretty good.But it also reminds me how much of a failure I am. It's a mixed bag.

I don't have a car, but really want to get some whisky. How do I go about doing this without walking 8-9 miles to get it? I thought about asking family to drive me, but I don't want the judgemental and awkward stares, and I don't have any friends.

I live in Florida and even though it's legal to ship alcohol here, I've only found 1 website that does it and the shipping rates are insane (18.99$ for the cheapest just for a single bottle, so literally paying double for a fifth) and every other website doesn't ship here for whatever reason.

Look up friends from elementary school and call them, asking for a ride. Bonus points if it's 3 am.

Put an ad up on your local ad website saying "Go buy me whiskey and deliver it here. Will pay X amount"

Probably not going to get a lot of interesting in offering people like $5 to do it.

how do you live that far from booze

I'm sure getting an uber or a cab is going to cost way more than just getting it shipped.

So....walk, or beg a ride from your judgemental family.
