Booze sucks

I think I've stated several times in this forum that my diet consists mostly of canned food.

Animals simply love to get high too: http://www.australiangeographic.com....-their-fix.htm

None of this demonstrates that the drunk scenes in Animals Are Beautiful People weren't staged, ****.

One scene depicts baboons, elephants, giraffes, warthogs and other animals eating rotten, fermented fruit of the Marula tree. The intoxicated animals then stagger around for comic effect. In the morning, we see one baboon wake up, disheveled, next to a warthog, and quietly exit the burrow, as not to wake her. Some experts have claimed that some scenes were likely staged; elephants would be too large, for example, and drink too much water (diluting the alcohol) to get intoxicated.^[1]

How much sodium do you consume in a day?

Yeah, all the animals pretended to get pissed and were in cahoots with the film makers...

Or was it you and Ben dressed up as a baboon and a warthog instead?

I was merely proving that animals do get wasted in the wild, on purpose, whereas you've merely linked to a wikipedia article where 'some' 'experts' have 'claimed' that 'some' scenes were 'likely' 'staged'...

[Ban Kenobi]

I never claimed animals never get drunk in the wild, so your "proof" is irrelevant.

[MOBIUS]

No, I'd say it's still relevant.

I drink something like five drinks each week, if that even.

Oh Lord, Reg... even MrFun is more interesting than you

[regexcellent]

If you think the amount of alcohol you drink is equivalent to how interesting you are then you're a goddamn moron HTH. Have fun with your cirrhosis.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Someone who has a few drinks is more interesting than those who go "eww, alcohol", in my experience.

[The Mad Monk]

Someone who follows along is more interesting than those who go their own way, in my experience.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Usually that is true too . Those who "go their own way" are usually following someone else anyways, and can't wait to tell you how much better it is or how the thing everyone is doing sucks (ie, vegans, teetotalers)

After the food comment, he is dead to me... *

























* Actually he was already dead to me, so no real loss...

My dinner from last night (and probably for the next week because it's about 6-7 pounds of food). The chicken and rice weren't canned but everything else was.

[MRT144]

You waited until you were 21 to drink? I bet you'd have given up your guns to George III as well. After all, you've got to obey the law.

Forget booze. Smoke weed.

KABOOM!
