May be. In my industry, I have to ‘act’ as if I like being at the studio meeting when I hate the fags around me. But not enough for me to head to the nearest bar or chug down a bottle of Jagermeister afterwards..

Stupid so-called study.

There is no real correlation, they just made it up.

Maybe heavy drinkers are more likely to fake and/or suppress their emotions than other people.

Or maybe there is no link at all.

That show, IMO, was on par with the likes of Seinfeld. The Drew Carey show was just great comedy. Especially when he and that chick with the makeup went at it.
