I haven't ever tried those things but recently I have a friend who is on trial for homicide over one of those drinks. She gave an 18 year old the money to buy one and somehow he ended up going into a comma and eventually went brain dead so they had to pull the plug. Crazy drink. Wth is in it?

how the fuck is she in trouble for giving an adult money? now if she bought it for them i can understand... but last i heard it is not illegal to give someone $3

Mustangman2000...Stop being such a child. Turning to alcohol to solve ANY problem is a pussy's way out. Like I said...everyone here has been through some shit. And yes we have all drank. But trying to brag about how much you drink and your deadbeat status is about like listing off STDs to prove you're a player. Anyone who has been through college has drank like you claim to...immaturity and neglect is nothing to brag about.

Real men deal with problems...not drink to forget them. Just stop now. Seriously...next time you're drinking...just stop and stay offline. Unless this is just one call for help. If that's the case...man up and ask.

To his credit he has, but it doesnt appear that he is serious about getting sober.

Ever heard the axiom Don't pass judgment until you walk in another man's shoes?

I'm glad some of you have lives that are so sheltered and pristine. Or haven't watch someone take their last breath. Must be nice to be a sanctimonious asshole who has no skeletons in the closet or have any scars. Be interesting to see if you would have a paradigm shift if you had seen the things I have.

What's funny is that you assume that you are talking to people that could not have ever seen or been through shit you have been through. I hate to burst your holier than thou bubble, but you have probably not been through or seen HALF of the shit as most people on this board. I don't want to hear your crying and whining all while looking down your nose. Most of the people on this board don't deserve to be patronized by your ego. Get over yourself already.

The only reason I even posted that is because you have touted yourself so high and mighty on your medical advise as well as going toe to toe with davbrucas about your knowledge and advise and if it is accurate, etc, and then you come in here posting about how you're intentionally dropping Valium while slamming fourloko. Now tell me people should trust the advise you give, as now we can't be sure if you are typing this advise sober or inebriated. Savvy?

Mustangman up until about six months ago i enjoyed reading your posts, something has drastically changed and the Woe is me party is really kinda sad. I hope you find something else to consume your time. I know you probably don't care my opinion, but I've never heard of anyone finding the answer to anything at the bottom of any bottles.

Well said.

I believe the entire point has blown over your head and missed you entirely. I don't for a second disbelieve the evil that this world has thrown at you nor the pain that your facing. I just believe that there is a more productive way for you to voice your anger/frustration with it all rather than, parading your alcohol abuse for everyone to see. I don't think at all you should "internalize" your problem but if I were you I would most certainly find a more receptive voice to listen and interpret it to help your situation. It's obvious your semi-well read and educated enough to have thoughts on lots of current events as well as several different hobbies including the Mustang world. As i stated previously i do not and will not understand the voicing of Woe is me, Followed by bragging about how much you have consumed.. Really contradicting. No big words for me Good luck though seriously.

This is the part about your actions that i do not and will not understand. Telling what you drink.. and how quickly you drink it seems like it's a sense of passing for you, always as if your bragging about the fact that you can out drink anyone because of this or that. Previously you said you were working on kicking your habit, you say you do not wear it as a badge of honor. Either one of three things are happening here.

A) you are way drunk and want to get props for your alcohol intake.
B) you are not drunk and trying to get futurama jealous of you.
C) you are in very immediate need of some help more so than Dr.Dave or anyone on this board will be able to give you.

Letting your past or anything else destroy you is stupid, and selfish but I'm positive you already know this.

Well, believe it or not. I've been accused of being many things, but lying and falsity is not one of them.

This was my dinner tonight as it has been on many a night.



As for Futurama, I don't understand what the big deal is about the guy. In fact, I took the time to PM him when was concerned about a medical problem. I worked in a field where I saw a lot of broken people (not speaking in a physical sense). I think to vilify or label someone a pariah because they aren't status quo is hubris and pomposity beyond description. There are a lot of conceited people on this forum (not accusing you, just generalizing) and a someone cliquish environment within certain circles. That's why I made the effort to actual attend a couple of local GTGs to see what these people are like in person. Everyone I met was very amiable and I had a decent time shooting the bull. I'm not sure what they think about me, but I can't worry about that. There is an incredible book that I read that was written by Peter Jennings not too long before he died. Describing his career in journalism, global travel, personal growth, and interacting with all different kinds of people from different geography and religions. Something very poignant he said in the book that kind of applies to my train of thought. There are no absolute truths in this world. Black and white is an acutely limited view point. Things are mostly in the gray and reside in the abstract.

What's his name above just called me a loser. Maybe I am, but I've made a positive imprint in some people's lives. I've saved a few and lost a few along the way. Life is too short to be myopic and harbor prejudice attitudes against people of whom you've never met. I believe in 2nd chances. Everyone on here rags on Futurama because he verbalizes his problems or issues. Big fucking deal. I rather someone do that than internalize them and get to the point of suicidal ideation. I think it takes more courage to speak your mind. The jokes, laughs, attempts at humiliation are going to come as a result of doing so on a public forum. Oh well, bring it on.

I retract my previous post. You're too hardcore for me!

And I do the same. For allowing you to goad me into making a lengthy response about something that is ultimately ridiculous. And allowing my issues with alcohol to be fodder for everyone's entertainment.
