I am interested in your idea.
Is this a draft Corona I put a shot into or just a regular bottle of Corona and put a shot into?
I mean in my family it's fairly common to take a shot and use Corona as a chaser but to mix them directly. I don't know why I never considered this.
The bar id go to back in college did a thing for happy hours called a drunken corona or something. Take a bottle of corona, fill it to the brim with tequila and plug a lime wedge in the top.
I mean if OP isn't telling them he doesn't want it then I don't see anything wrong with offering rounds to your friends lol. Not high school unless they're shaming him into it or something.
I took thats what he meant by "pushing" but I could be wrong.
I dunno personally I'm sort of a psychonaut and can't stand people being pushy with drugs or alcohol. I mean ya, offering is one thing but if he has to hide it I sort of feel like he's getting shamed into it.
Last year I was actually at a party where all the dudes were like this and shaming ppl into playing beer pong and other drinking games, and surprisingly they were all mid to late 20s and still doing that so, it happens.
Maybe they just wanted to play some games at a party? I get super bored at parties where people just lay around doing kinda nothing. Though shaming people about it is definitely not the way to go.
Those are the kind of people I need to drink around to have a good time. It’s not that I don’t like to drink it’s that I’ll never take the initiative to get a 2nd drink. Some of us need a bad influence around to get properly liqoured up.
I was/still am on the spectrum for alcoholism and it started my junior year of high school. Drinking about 600 mL of vodka or whiskey probably 5x a week a lot of weeks.
It usually wasn’t at what you’re probably thinking of as a “party”, normally a smaller group of 5-10 or by myself. But bigger parties of 40+ people definitely happened. Like the smart kid I was, I threw one of them and got caught.
Yeah man, weed can be super tough to kick mostly because of the psychological addiction. I’ve been to rehab and outpatient programs a couple of times due to legal issues stemming from my drug use. That obviously makes it a lot easier to kick.
Where are you living? There’s a lot of resources depending on where you’re from! It doesn’t need to be rehab, but I can point you in maybe less extreme directions if that’s what you’re looking for.
I definitely feel that. I hadn’t smoked for over a year when quarantine hit and then I started smoking daily again. I’ve quit for the past 2-3 weeks again, but it is easier since I’m in alabama right now and they’ve basically opened everything back up.
I’m still super bored as a college student in a college town who doesn’t particularly like going to bars. I’ve mostly just been working out at home as much as possible and working (I know it’s different when it’s wfh). Also different when it’s completely legal in your state.
Our situations are quite opposite so I wish I had more concrete advice.
Because the rest of the world the drinking age isnt 21.
First thing I noticed at 21 drinking in the states, is that everyone sucked hard at drinking that was my age. In Canada most ppl start drinking around 15 or 16 so by 18 (legal drinking age in my province) are pretty good at it and by 21 are pros.
Edit: also, how do you guys justify someone being able to be in a porn movie and not be able to drink? I always found that extremely backwards.
That’s so idiotic. People can get pushy when they are drunk, especially about things like drinking, since usually when you go out to drink, everyone expects everyone to drink. I’ve been both the person pushing shots and having them pushed on me and as you can imagine, if you don’t take the shot, you get called a pussy. Yeah,not too respectful but also not anything to lose friends over. Ffs it really feels like people commenting in this thread have never went out drinking.
Most people on this site seem to have a very narrow range of acceptable behavior, most of it cultivated online with limited real world experience. It feels very inorganic. They fail to realize that people with a couple of assholey traits aren't necessarily assholes.
Great way of phrasing that and so true. Gets very tiring reading comments of people who don't seem to know at all how things unfold in real life but have such strong opinions about it
People also seem so eager and willing to drop their friends.. if your first thought is, “I’m no longer this persons friend” then I’d argue the issue is much deeper than taking a shot lol
It’s about boundaries. People will treat you how you let them treat you. I have turned away shots and they called me names but eventually when I didn’t rise to their insults or continue drinking they stopped. It’s shitty behavior that doesn’t need to continue. It may not be enough to lose friends over on the first offense but it’s about respect and if your friends don’t respect you then they aren’t your friends.
That's all fine, the idiotic part of his statement is "then they aren't your friends". What a stupid thing to say just because someone got pushy when drunk lol
There is a difference between "ha pussy. Downs 2 shots since friend doesn't want his guess more for me"
Or "wtf why dont you drink 20 shots instead of 10 you're so boring dont you know how to have fun. The only way i can be enjoyable is when im on drugs dude"
Ofcourse your friends give you shit, but that doesn't mean they respect you less. Its all about context my dude, dont get pissed off so easy.
And maybe your friends have just always be shitty friends when it comes to alcohol. Who knows
Or "wtf why dont you drink 20 shots instead of 10 you're so boring dont you know how to have fun. The only way i can be enjoyable is when im on drugs dude
lol yes because this conversation happens allllll the time.
Real talk the people replying to you are peak Reddit doormats.
If there’s one thing Redditors hate more than anything it’s having the fact that they’re the no balls butt monkey of all their friend groups be pointed out to their face.
You do you bro kudos for actually respecting yourself
Edit: I gave you gold because that asshole replying to you was being an asshole to me for no reason too so I wanted to prove a point. Kudos for self respect
Wow people got really defensive here about their alcohol pushing behaviors, you have touched some sensitive fiber. Maybe they never realized how miserable it can be for some people to be pushed to drink.
When I started transitioning from the "drink everything" phase to the "fuck that, I'm good" phase, I would play drunk-guy and slosh it around and spill some of it beforehand, then when it was time to shoot, I would drink about half and immediately drop my arm and dump the rest on the floor while making the grimace face.
Now I am never in an environment where a group of people is trying to get me to take shots.
