Do Y'all Think I Drink Too Much?

[IrishCanadian25]

Be honest?

How much do you all honestly think I drink? Do you think I am a drunk?

 

[klunderbunker]

I think it's hard for us to gauge as we don't see you in your daily life or what you do every night.

prolly a bit more than you should. but not anything alarming

 

[Hyorinmaru]

The fact that you have a steady job, and a fiancee menas you aren't a drunk

I already posted my thoughts on the thread KB made. But I do have some more things to say. I don't like drunk IC, even if he gives rep. I get worried that you might do something that you wouldn't normally do when you aren't drunk. I want to continue seeing IC make awesome posts when he is in a normal state. I know it may sound stupid or silly, but from the time I have been here so far, I am sure there would be some of you I would worry about if I knew you in real life. IC, you would be someone I would worry if I knew in real life.

If IC's a drunk, I shudder to think what you guys would classify me as.

Just because when you drink, you like to drink alot doesn't make you an alcoholic. There's a bit more involved. Trust me, I practically grew up in AA meetings from when I was 4 years old.

Though I don't know IC's actual real life drinking habits or reasons, so I can't really say. But from what I can gather, no IC, you are not an alcoholic.

 

[It's...Baylariat!]

IC isn't a drunk. Having a fiance', a college degree, and a steady job implies that.

That's just not true. There is such a thing as a "functioning alcoholic".

 

[Marquis]

I mostly voted yes cause it said "He's a fucking steel-livered Irish lush". If that somehow classifies him as a drunk, then i do not agree. Then again i wouldn't know.

 

[It's...Baylariat!]

Interesting. I figure it would eventually catch up with you.

I take it you don't know very much about alcoholism or drug abuse Lariat.

I know a lot about drug abuse. And as far as that goes, you can be a functional drug addict. But I've seen alcohol abuse cost people dearly, too. I guess you can be a functional alcoholic, but it's rare to see anyone with a degree, a steady GF, and a steady job be an alcoholic to the point of where it's a problem.

Admin me in the next five minutes. If you can do that, you're functioning enough to live as a normal person in a typical society.

For all I know, you only go to a bar once a month. But, you do give off the impression that you are a drunk, seeing as how you post almost nothing but pictures from bars. Anyways, the only person you need to worry about is the woman you're about to marry. If she has even the smallest issue with it, I think you should make some major changes to your social life.

 

[IrishCanadian25]

Ok, so I'll ask this.

In a typical 5-day workweek, Monday - Friday, with no holidays, how many alcoholic beverages would you estimate I consume?

 

[Mighty NorCal]

20. one per eve, 15 combined on Fri and Say.

 

[IrishCanadian25]

20. one per eve, 15 combined on Fri and Say.

No no, ONLY Monday - Friday.

 

[SavageTaker]

No more than 25. 10 at a minimum.

 

[IrishCanadian25]

No more than 25. 10 at a minimum.

So you think I consume 2-5 drinks per weeknight?

I haven't seen much of you in the bar...why?

1 with dinner. I think you even telded me that. Also depends if a sporting event of some sort is on.

I don't know what the official classification of a drunk is, but IC is not what I would say it is. He may drink slightly more than average but if it's not affecting his life in any way I'm sure it's fine. It sounds like he's doing great in life anyway. Really it's in his head. If on the inside he knows it's a problem then ya, he may be an alcoholic. If he doesn't think anything is wrong and his life reflects that then he's fine. Just my opinion on the matter.

BTW, I voted yes on the poll because it was the funnier option.

 

[Murfish]

Moral of the story: an occasional binge doesn't make you an alcoholic.

Then again, this is a wresting forum. If you have actual concerns, you should probably seek an expert's opinion.

Hmm, I'll take a shot in the dark and say 4 a night.

 

[Cena's Little Helper]

I say you consume about 25 alcoholic beverages Monday through Friday. 1 on Monday, 1 on Tuesday, 1 on Wednesday, 1 on Thursday, and 21 on Friday.
