I don't buy alcohol, and I don't get out much, so I'm as sober as a pug most of the time. When I go to a pub I like to drink beer, but it only takes a whiff of the barmaid's apron to set me off. The last time I was shitfaced was at Pappa and Rachel's, but before that... ah yes, Pappa and Rachel's, and the time before that as well.
Seems to be a pattern emerging there. Must be something to do with crossing the Severn.

I'm sober most of the time. I don't see what all the hoopla's about. 
I was given a year of free milkshakes once. The year passed and I hadn’t bothered to get even one.

I think it depends a lot on the company you keep. Getting 'ripped' is a lot more fun with friends who are getting ripped.Sean Hayden wrote:I'm sober most of the time. I don't see what all the hoopla's about.

And if you're permanently sober, then you want to get away from people who are drinking to any great degree.Făkünamę wrote:I think it depends a lot on the company you keep.

That was me on Friday evening, at a going-away gig for a colleague who was moving to another office in the University. The pizzas and chips (fries
) were nom, but once they were polished off, I made my excuses and left the others to imbibe to their heart's content.
