Fuck you straight-edged faggots.

The only reason to not get drunk every so often is that it's somewhat expensive.

There's nothing like trying to find the keys of your keyboard and make sense of the letters on your screen because you're too hammered to read or coordinate your body.

Or not giving half a fuck about any of your problems because of the pleasant, warm dizziness after a few shots or cocktails.

Or relaxing after a shit day, and feeling your muscles relax, and your aches and pains fade away and be replaced with a sense of comfort.

Oh god, I want some gin right now.

I remember waking up to find that I'd typed a load of jibberish at my friend. It was amusing.

Then again, I also remember vomiting all over, having to sit in a barely warm bath trying to get vomit out of my hair, having to cut bits of hair off and having my room smell like sick for days.

Not having had a haircut in 7+ years I thought it wouldn't make a difference, it was noticeable.

Used to. Can't say it did my health any good either, but was a fun activity to do with friends.
>It'll help you forget about your crippling depression, and might even fix your anxiety problems!
I don't think I have depression, let's see what the definition says:
>Severe despondency and dejection, accompanied by feelings of hopelessness and inadequacy.
Nope.
> A condition of mental disturbance, typically with lack of energy and difficulty in maintaining concentration or interest in life.
There are many things I've lost interest in and many things that anger me about the general state of intelligent life on this planet, but I still have interest in many things and I don't have feelings of hopelessness either. I have enough (compatibilist) "free will" in the sense that I can see many choices of what I can do an if I so choose, exercise my directly open options.
Either way, I'm not sure what I have can be called depression, it's just the usual analytical mindset I've had since forever, but it's also one I can turn off at any time if I so wish.
>anxiety problems!
While alcohol does indeed help 'losen' one up, I can't say I have anxiety problems.

Nowadays, I wouldn't ever think about drinking alone for 3 reasons: I like having a clear mind and being able to think rationally; drinking alone isn't as much fun; hangovers tend to suck, even if they can be managed and they mess with my already messed up sleep schedule.

As a home brewer; the suggestions in this thread for homebrewing are fucking disgusting.

They're a recipe for undistilled grape flavoured rum.

Even doing dextrose / malt would be better.

Also you need to use brewers yeast, for either wine or beer. And at the right temperature and alcohol content target. And measure your densities.

And if you're making beer (ie: any malt based) use hops, use lots of hops... towards the end (ie: in primary but not breeding fermentation). And Bittering Agent during the boil.

And FOR FUCKS SAKE: CLEAN, STERILE, CLEAN. Brewing takes at least 10 times the water volume in cleaning than the final alcohol output.

The ideal homebrewer can replicate an exact brew. That means ultimate control, replication. Once you can replicate, you can get anything right.

But seriously: bitters, hops flavour (strong), high gravities, and high end gravities. Triple bitter ales with so much hops you can feel your sinus clear. "Small" ales that are so tasty you'll swear off soft drinks forever.

And I haven't even touched wine.

or home distilling.

I come from Australia. We value "thick" mouthfeel beyond merely bulking, and into actual retained sugars. Bittering ought to make the resultant brew slightly to highly bitter. It is more about getting a pint meal in than girl-pop.

Also, a 40 is technically a tripel... but the taste difference is as astounding as the difference between light "beer" and small ale.
