Cliff Clavin on why beer is good....
"Well you see, Norm, it's like this... A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo and when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Now, as we know, excessive drinking of alcohol kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. And that, Norm, is why you always feel smarter after a few beers."

I don't like beer, or much alcohol for that matter. I don't know why, just don't enjoy it.
I get what I like to refer to as a "contact buzz". When others are drinking around me & start to get goofy, I get caught up in it, almost to the point where I walk silly, haha
Other than that, alcohol just makes me sick, in any amount.

Happiness is like peeing your pants. Everyone can see it, but only you can feel the warmth.
I drink very occasionally, and only in small amounts... I'm just not big on that buzz as a rule. Just a touch too much, and I get a pukey feeling. The other stuff? Hell, they use that to treat nausea!Tegamal wrote:I don't like beer, or much alcohol for that matter. I don't know why, just don't enjoy it.

Wow. I guess so. That's quite a curse. I'd seek out a witchdoctor for help.Merge wrote:I don't like beer at all. They all taste like Michelob to me. When
I was around 7 or 8, I would sneak drinks of my grandfather's beer and all he
ever drank was Michelob. I've probably been cursed, lol.
Don't think I've had a Michelob since...1984. Used to pick some up at a friend's
grandparents. His grandmother would yell at him for taking an "Old woman's
beer". She didn't mean that he was TAKING it, but that Michelob was for old
women.
Even then, I knew it was swill. She used to say to me (Actually, kind of seer
it) "You don't like that, do you?". Nope. She'd then give me some Heineken.
