this also is another element of alcahol i dont like, ppl who use it always say, "your a pussy this" and "your a pussy that" ok then, so if i can take 10 pills a night and you can only take 6, that makes you a pussy right?

actually impulsive it makes you a member of the opposite team of the all mighty harm reductioners. dont worry im fighting with you, ten strips and ten packs of pills are good for ONE night.
I drink 4 or 5 times a year. Usually beer and its usually free. Beer does taste very nasty. Drinking in general makes me feel like shit. I don't understand why people drink at all when there is so much better shit to do. If I'm drinking I'm broke and need a cheap ass buzz.

I'm not a big alcohol fan. I think hard liquor tastes like ass, and beer, though I don't *mind* the taste, I find it results in shitty hangovers (plus, all the volume to get me drunk is a strain on my stomach).
If I want to drink for the buzz (which is very rarely, as it takes a LOT of alcohol to get me buzzed), I will do vodka, usually mixed with OJ or energy drinks. Vodka definitely has the least hangover. I don't really like the buzz, but I'll do it if I'm really stressed and need to relax, and am in the right crowd of people and location.
I really like wine, but only for the taste and the addition it makes to a fine dining experience.
Alcohol is definitely terrible for you, much worse than alot of recreational drugs...and it get you a lot more un-recognizably fucked up too.
But you know what the WORST drug is, by far? In terms of effects, cost, side effects, addiction potential, and certainly health?? CIGARETTES. They are so fucking stupid and harmful, and they aren't even fun...

Cigarettes are evil and i don't know anyone with a long term habit who can say they actually enjoy the feeling the get from smoking. Anyway....
Alcohol is one of the most messy drugs out there and here in the UK, the amount of alcohol drunk on a weekend must be incredible. I went through a phase of hating alcohol after i was introduced to E, now realise that any drug in moderation will give you a pleasant effect. I don't really enjoy the alcohol high at all and can't honestly see that many benefits from drinking whereas with Psychedelics, MDMA and to a lesser degree, cocaine and amphetamines all have altered my perspective for the better.
I think one plus for alcohol is that it lessens your inhbitions after a few drinks making conversation and things easier and more fun (i.e. drinking with a meal or with friends), but getting shitfaced just makes people either aggressive, incoherent, overly emotionally sensitive or just a jibbering mess lying in a pile of their own blood and vomit.
..and long periods of overindulging makes you fat, moody and miserable. Actually, i don't really like alcohol.

I think beer is an aquired taste. I have came to really enjoy it at different occasions. Mostly dark beers!
Do to my job (as a Dj and promoter) I find myself in a couple bars or clubs- just about every night of the week - so its not unusual for me to have about 4, 5, or 6 beers a night. Not all in one sitting- but spread out in the course of several hours.
I also find myself stoppin' at the local bar to have lunch- have a beer or two- shoot some pool or just to shoot the shit for a little while.
Theres just something about being social with people, who you don't usually associate with, (such as the neighborhood drunk, your neighbors wife, that hot chick that works down the street, or that 80yr old man that has been going to that bar since almost the turn of the century)
It's kind of enjoyable to be around such a variety of people, that all have the same goal! --TO HAVE A DRINK!

yeah beer is definatly good.
relaxing after a good days surfing sinking a couple and cooking a few sausos or prawns
on ya balcany, mmmm...
but why do people "HATE" a drug? sure some people become arrogant fuckwits but that can happen with abusing any drug.
narrow minded if you ask me.
No one is the best.

Nah, I think people HATE a drug because they HATE the feeling they get when they do it.
I myself haven't been able to drink even moderately ever since I started using illegal drugs. I used to hit the clubs every weekend, and I'd have a few drinks (never went overboard as I was usually driving myself home), enough to get all loopy and dance silly, and since I stayed hydrated I almost never got hung over the next day...but I guess you could say I really enjoyed alcohol.
Now for some reason I just can't enjoy it like I used to. Not because of some social stigma that drug users attach to alcohol, but just because every time I drink more than the equivalent of 2 mixed drinks, when I start to come down off of being intoxicated (whether it's buzzed or shitfaced), I get this horrible sour feeling in my body that feels like an acid body buzz gone wrong. It never used to do that before. That and the feeling of "being drunk" is a lot more decidedly depressive than it used to be. I used to be a silly drunk. Now I just get pensive.
There's a few types of alcohol that don't do this to me, thankfully. I can drink good sake until the sun comes up and it will never be anything but pleasant. And I rarely turn down a glass or two of wine on the rare occasions that I actually sit down to dinner. I'll drink some beers (darker the better) and chick drinks like hard lemonade or pear cider, but the taste usually turns me off long before I get intoxicated (I have a moderately high alcohol tolearance for being a chick and as small as I am). But sadly, my days of drinking to get drunk seem to be over. I wish it hadn't--because alcohol is LEGAL and it's a lot easier for me to obtain since I'm of age, but apparently it wasn't in the cards for me.
But you may be right about the arrogance thing. When my family gets together for the holidays, alcohol is a big thing--and they don't understand why I'm always the sober one. My sister is still trying to figure out why drinking cement mixers (curdled Bailey's irish cream and Mountain Dew) isn't #1 on my fun list.
