Do you drink?

[Darrin Drader]

I used to drink a lot on college, but the last big bender I went on was Gen Con 2003 (I was there for 5 nights and I don't think I went to bed sober once). Anyway, I might drink 2 or 3 hard lemonades once a month now, but not more than that. I'm just not that into it anymore and I hate waking up feeling like I'm about to die. I like wine, but I don't much like beer. Tequilla is the most evil substance on the face of the Earth and I will probably never touch it again.

Old One: You've set off my cheese-head-ometer:

Used to have a drinking age of 18...check
Eats bratwurst...check
Knows what "hammered" means...check

Are you an expatriate Wisconsinite like me?

Nah...did my high school years in MD. I have only been to WI a couple of times...and never for GENCON (boo). I am hoping for more luck in Indy...maybe next year...

I like drinking, and I love well-crafted beer. I enjoy that first buzz from a cold one after a hard day at work. I enjoy the sublime feeling I get just chillin' with a brewski and some homies and some good music or conversation. I down about six to twelve beers a week. I don't drink when I DM, however. Beer and DMing don't mix.

In germany beer counts as food, not as alcoholic drink. It's legal at age 16 - which actually lessens the "coolness" of being drunk IME.

I don't drink when I DM, however. Beer and DMing don't mix.

I rarely DM without beer. DMing and being sober don't mix. Plus it makes it easier for the players - so i set up TPKs and thanx to my beers the players survive.

The same goes for computer strategy games. Playing them when drunk is plain fun

I *only* drink socially. That's not that uncommon a choice, methinks.

Never at mealtime, rarely with roleplaying.

That's me+drinking summed up, with the odd 'once in a blue moon' kinda thing to vary it.

Oh wait, frequency of drinking. Hm. Every week or so (on average), I guess.

I'm sort of in a catch 22 when it comes to drinking. I enjoy beer, wine, and alcohol on a social level (and maybe get drunk 2-3 times a year), but I also suffer from migraine headaches, and one usually leads to the other (alcohol -> migraine), so I don't drink a lot.

are you Tom Jefferson reincarnated?

1000 bottles of wine later... and he still had a migraine...

I drink socially. Sometimes, a lot. But I don't drink at mealtimes, and I don't drink alone.

I used to drink (sometimes quite heavily) but I haven't touched the stuff in 3 years and never will again. Major life changes caused this (no not alcoholism) but even before them my drinking had tapered off to the occasional beer.

Well, I do live in Charlottesville...
