Summer time is a good excuse for a float.

Vanilla ice cream and a Leinenkugels Creamy Dark or a Kostritzer Schwarzbier with your cheeseburger and brats.

Its mostly because UN/WEF declared war on alcohol a few years ago and whoever pays the most for the study is always right.

[SimpleJack]

Rehab is for quitters.

Looked into Stockwell’s background and he’s looking like a political hack.

In small doses it makes people think they are smarter and more socially engaging than they really are, and in larger amounts turns people into complete brain damaged a-holes.

As opposed to a Dunning-Kruger afflicted a-hole Karens where it comes naturally as a result of their upbringing or genetics.

Not you of course.

[Bobbyvotes]

Yes, for couple of years. Now in my mid-80’s I can eat anything without a problem. It is shocking how much daily exercise benefits us. No doctor told me that.

[BiteYourSelf]

Yup.🤔

[BiteYourSelf]

Hmm,maybe I should take up drinking.😋

Just like the gonefs who ripped off the tobacco industry.

This is not a hill l would die on. If someone wants to drink a bit it’s their choice.

"The lesson here is start drinking when you are older?"

I've been a moderate drinker for all of my adult life. I'm 92 now and still drink 2-3 bottles of beer a day. I told that to my gynecologist that last year and he said, "Keep doing what you're doing, you're doing okay." My wife and close friends and family are gone. I hope to live long enough to vote in the next election; after that I don't give a damn. Age has its advantages.

[MikelTackNailer]

I am now healthy as a thoroughbred but I have to go to these damn meetings,

LOL! I had to go to AA for months over a DUI conviction and couldn't get out of there fast enough. All the depressing stories made me want to drink.

But hey...free coffee!

Give an Irishman lager for a month and he’s a dead man. An Irishman’s stomach is lined with copper, and the beer corrodes it. But whiskey polishes the copper and is the saving of him.

I always take Scotch whiskey at night as a preventive of toothache. I have never had the toothache; and what is more, I never intend to have it.

You cant reach old age by another man’s road, my habits protect my life but they would assassinate you

My guess is global puppeteers want drugs to replace alcohol. Soon, they’ll be handing out pot gummies in elementary school to improve behavior.

Bravo, Johnny Carson.

Everyone is built different. My grandfather drank whisky until he died of a stroke at 90. My dad died of lung cancer at 60. My mom killed herself at 50. My grandmother lived to 95. Who knows when we will die. Enjoy life. Screw the doctors, they will die too.

Trouble with alcoholics(and I'm a sober one) is that if one drink is good for your health , a dozen must be great for one's health.
