Not to me, I’ve never understood that sentiment. I can act as silly as I want without being drunk, and I hate how it turns other people into almost different people. If I wanted to be friends with their drunken selves, I wouldn’t be friends with their sober selves.
Yeah I’ve noticed there’s a divide in the population in which half the people “know what it’s like” to get drunk, and it really isn’t for them. And they’re baffled by people who love to get drunk. It’s a different experience. People don’t get drunk just “to act as silly as they want”, that should be obvious.
People are so weird in their obsession with alcohol and getting drunk…
some people prefer therapy,
The rest of us just drink until we can’t remember why we’re stressed.
Don’t knock it till you’ve tried it.
I think what you’re missing is that getting drunk is very fun.

This is it.
Some people drink 1 tequila, do a Hangover, and go, “Drinking is bad” smh
To be fair, alcohol is a poison.
So is caffeine but we love coffee, tea, and chocolate too.
I get where you’re going but how many coffees does it take to kill a person vs how many beers
About 4g of caffeine is lethal, https://www.npr.org/2023/12/07/1217758671/a-lawsuit-says-a-man-died-after-drinking-a-highly-caffeinated-beverage-at-panera
The lethal dose of alcohol is about 5 to 8 grams per kilogram of body weight.
I felt this way at one time when I was younger. Now I don’t give a shit what people want to do with their own bodies.
