    Drinking tomorrow does not make you an alcoholic.

    Being someone who can't live without drink tomorrow does.

    So, are you an alcoholic, or just a drinker?


    Wait...just saw Tipperary....I guess that question is answered.

    Think my mate picked up load of drink for me today, if not at least those Heathens over the border will be open tomorrow. Hell, I don't want to take advantage of lower prices on alcohol, but if the government doesn't want to rape me on the excise on alcohol then I suppose I'll just tip up the road and get some alcohol there.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,587 ✭✭✭Pace2008


    I think people are confusing binge drinking with alcoholism.

    Thanks for reminding me, chaps! If I drink the 3 cans of Bravaria in the fridge tomorrow I'll develop a taste for more and realise it's Good Friday!

    "Nooooooooooooooooo!!" *Shakes fist in the air*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,659 ✭✭✭CrazyRabbit


    I don't have a drinking problem. I can drink just fine until they kick me out of the pub after 10 hours.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,986 ✭✭✭philstar

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,345 ✭✭✭landsleaving

    Got a case of Carlsberg, 20 bottles for 15e, just noticed when I got home they were only 300ml though :(

    This thinking of "Oh you can't go one day without drink, you've a problem" is a load of crap.

    I'm going to have a drink because it's a Friday, finished my working week (I'm having one now in fact).

    If they had a Good Tuesday I wouldn't be drinking on it, because it's a Tuesday.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,986 ✭✭✭philstar

    whats the deal with no selling drink on good friday its actually just a huge inconvenience?

    seriously do the government think they're doing us the world of good by stopping us buying drink for one day of the year? what's their problem? they should all be fired.

    Apparently females are responsible for the existence of beer!
    The blokes might claim now "Well its not our fault!" :D
    Telegraph UK

    One of man's great pleasures might be a pint of beer at the local but an academic has claimed it would never have existed without the entrepreneurial skills of women. Jane Peyton, 48, and author and historian, said women created beer and for thousands of years it was only they who were allowed to operate breweries and drink beer. The drink is now almost exclusively marketed to men - with television characters such as Homer Simpson the epitome of the beer-loving male.

    Yet Miss Peyton said that up until 200 years ago, beer was considered a food and fell into the remit of women's work. It was only then that men began drinking it and it became what is considered a very male drink.
    Miss Peyton has conducted extensive research into the origins of beer for a new book, and discovered to her surprise that a woman's touch was found on beer throughout the ages.
    Nearly 7,000 years ago in Mesopotamia and Sumeria, so important were their skills that they were the only ones allowed to brew the drink or run any taverns.
    And in almost all ancient societies beer was also then considered to be a gift from a goddess, never a male God.
    Between the eighth and tenth centuries AD the Vikings spread terror by rampaging through Europe, fuelled by women-made ale.

    Women were the exclusive brewers in Norse society and all equipment by law remained their property.
    And Ancient Finland also credits the creation of beer to the fairer sex, with three women, a bear's saliva and wild honey the apparent first ingredients.
    In England ale was traditionally made in the home by women. They were known as brewsters or ale-wives and the sale of the drink provided a valuable income for many households.

    It quickly became an essential staple of the diet and even royalty indulged in the tasty beverage.
    Queen Elizabeth I, like most people of the era, consumed it for breakfast and at other times of the day.
    But by the start of the late 18th century and the Industrial Revolution, new methods of making beer meant women's contribution slowly started to decline and be forgotten, until now.
    Miss Peyton said: "I know men will be absolutely stunned to find this out, but they've got women to thank for beer."
