So - I was at a BBQ with friend and family the other night to celebrate the recent successe on the soccer pitch for our beloved Freshman player in the first two college games of the season.
Drinks were flowing at an alarming rate and the mood was - well - what it was - nutty lol
the gang started chatting up about all the dumb things they've done while being drunk. Some of the stories were hilarious - others pretty scary. After about an hour of the tale telling (of course I kept mine to myself lol) someone asked the question ---
Has anything good ever happened due to alcohol?
silence - clearly everyone was trying to think of something......anything......all that was come up with were things to the effect that they were injured less because they were drunk when in some sort of accident (which they likely wouldn't have been in without alcohol involved in the first place)
So - can anyone tell me - in all honesty - if they know of a single time when something good happened because of drinking? (conception of a child excluded lol)
on a global - human history scale - or even regular joe style?
I can't think of any, and neither could anyone at the BBQ - It killed the mood and the BBQ ended shortly after - of course the person that asked the question didn't remember asking it the next day lol - brothers-in-law - what ya gunna do hehe
