Beer and Pizza?

[Haylie]

I wouldn't drink even if I WERE old enough. I hate alcohol.

Pizza's good, tho.

[Helel]

So much love on this poll, eh Xia?

Regardless, sure.

[Xia]

Its to be expected.

I enjoy seeing the anti-alcohol responses, cause most of them make me chuckle

[Mitera Nikkou]

Alcohol is virtually unneeded, so it's a waste of money for those with low income. Does that make you chuckle? ;p

[Xia]

yup

Its not as bad as cigarettes, which are an even bigger waste of money (and much worse for you :o)

[Garath the Shadowshifter]

I've actually tried many different kinds of Alcohol. And I've hated every single one.

Never drank enough for it to have an effect, and I'm going to keep it that way.

I do like pizza, but don't eat it too often given how it's really not that good for you.

Caffine on the other hand.... I at least limit to the weekends.

[Nylena]

Thin crust pizza(with the works) is the perfect food. Mmm just the right amount of meat and vegetable matter plus bread(not too much) and dairy.

Celebrate! Celebrate!

[Becca]

Keep your beer just hand over some of that yummy pizza. =^_^=

Hey, I have good reasons for hating alchohol. I lost my best friend (and nearly my sanity) to a drunk driver.

To be serious, who hasn't lost a friend they've known to a drunk driver?

But then, there's a slew of things people have died from or been killed by, and yet many people do every day. Like drive in cars. Reckless driving in general is incredibly dangerous, specifically.

As for the alcohol in question, it's a function of moderation and having a designated driver to play it safe. Simple as that.

But anyways, I'm just amused by the overall reaction, it's nothing against the people that don't like alcohol, it's your choice. It's just the 'one-sided'-ness here is amusing.

[Mistress Guendolen]

Hey, it's not alocohol as a whole I'm opposed to, just beer specifically. I have the occasional drink, something that actually tastes good- i.e. that doesn't taste alcoholic. Typically mixed. As you said, moderation is the key. You won't be harmed or harm anyone else so long as you're careful. It's just that there are too many stupid people out there who aren't.

[Xia]

in fact, a glass of wine a day is quite decent for your body :o

and Helel hit the nail on the head

[Mitera Nikkou]

You're not going to say how it's decent for your body? ;p I mean, I once heard that doing it on occasion is good for "rinsing" out the kidneys in such a way as to help prevent stones. I think. Basically, I just find alcoholic beverages to be silly, like I find toothpaste with fluoride to be silly. If they can kill me if I were to consume enough of either, and it could be done in under a few hours, I'd rather not bother with it at all. Somehow it seems like your body just doesn't quite agree with them, so I'd rather have something that I know I don't risk death by consuming too much of in one sitting, like pizza. Sure, moderation and proper use can solve the health issues, more or less (depends on how you look at it, I guess), but it just makes sense that, being that they can have a negative (and even deadly) effect in such a short time, that they're not used.

I'll just stick with chocolate. That's the only drug/poison/addiction/life-giving-substance-of-divinity that I need. ;p

Just as long as you have your priorities straight, knowing that too much of anything is a poison to your body. Look at diabetics and sugar. Poor things.

[Mitera Nikkou]

But sugar is hardly the cause for all diabetes cases. You can get it from being pregnant, being born (I believe), or from a host of other things.

I wouldn't say that everything would be a poison in large amounts, either. Lots of things would probably kill in a lot of non-poison ways, or at least cause problems. Such as drinking too much milk and not emptying your bladder often enough... Stones! @_@ And you may get some bone deformities if you're still growing... I don't know the specifics there. Too much water will either cause your body to retain the amount that it can't work fast enough to put to use or, in other cases, too much water makes you drown. ;p And then there's the lovely mad cow's disease... If you happen to eat enough beef (or other things, really) with prions in it, you will be doomed. I've heard that caffiene can stunt your growth? Cigarettes seem more like a carcinogen than a poison... And most people know not to drink the stuff under the sink. XD But not everyone knows to wash vegetables being eating them, to make sure there're no pesticides and stuff on them.

The world is fraught with peril! Like getting too drunk to have the the mind to limit how much more you drink. As for me, perhaps my poison will be the mercury in the tuna. Who knows?
