Why are things so much better with alcohol?
Yes I know what alcohol does to the brain. But it still amazes me. Jokes are funnier. I am happier. I am more sociable for the most part.
Alcohol. The wonder drug 
The only bad thing, is it is harder to type.

It's not a drug, it's a drink.

I read it as "better than alcohol", in which case I'd agree and list a bunch of things.
The only plus alcohol has it it's legal and cheap.

Not necessarily. Try driving, for example.

Try one of those voice dictation programs. Of course you will reach the point where your speech is so slurred the program can't make sense of it but the results at that stage might give us all a laugh.

driving is better with alcohol as well.
I don't do it because there are other people who could be affected.
But I see nothing wrong with driving drunk in a field by myself.
btw I'm not drunk. I haven't been drunk in many years. But I am enjoying a brew.

Alcohol is not a drug. Period.
This had to be said, I don't want to be a drug addict...

Well I haven't been drunk until last night..
being drunk sucks...when i lay myself on the bed everything goes berzerk in the head, i hate that feeling.. i can also have fun when i'm sober actually, when you're drunk you just laugh because you're drunk, not because something is particularly funny!
Of course, certain chicks do look nicer when you're drunk, but when i'm drunk nothing can turn me on anyway so you won't see be doing bad stuff, hehe

Trajanus - I have a tip for you.
If you lay down on the bed, and the 'room starts spinning around', all you have to do is put your leg on the floor - ZAP - spinning stops immediately. It works every time

If you are going to drink as much as needs to make the room spin, you might as well go the whole way and drink to unconsciousness.

Bodd - sometimes the room spinns only when you lay down on bed, and then this trick helps.

Like all such things, it's great in moderation.

We have a saying about the usage of alcohol:
"Too much is too much, but moderate is too short"

I have an alcohol problem!!
I don't have anything to mix with my alcohol!
The last drops of coke wouldn't have covered the ice in my glass, let alone make a significant quantity of bourbon and coke. The OJ is all used up, so no screwdriver. I don't have any wine at the moment.
In desperation, I was forced to make a baileys and milk.

Why is not being able to dilute your alcohol a problem?
Just drink it!

Most of my whiny posts are done drunk...in fact, my latest one was
What have we learned? Drinking makes you type about your personal problems and post them on a chatboard where you have only met 2 of the hundreds of fellow posters, and expect to get great counsel.
Ahh, drunkness

It's not that things go better with alcohol, it's just that with alcohol you're delusional.
