"I haven't had a drink in years"
"I have never drank alcohol"
"I just got my 5 year pin!"
"No, daddy, I'm too young to drink vodka"

Annoying, isn't it?

Meh, time for another beer.

right on, always hearing someone say how they dont drink or smoke or dont feel the need to, because it harms their body

My daughter stopped drinking beer when she turned three; said it was time for whiskey.

I grew up on "hot toddies".  Hell, I would fake an earache for another round.

The only thing more annoying is a drunk telling you how sober he is.

Yep, they are as annoying as the people who have to tell you how much they drank last night.

Last night I had FIVE imperial pints of homebrew.  That is 100 OUNCES!  And I don't tend to make low alcohol beer.

There are two kinds of bastards in this world.
A drunk bastard, when you are sober.
And a sober bastard, when you are drunk.

The one I hear all time is:



"I have been sober for a while. I just smoke a little weed here and there, also I may drink on the weekends, also my doctor perscribed me Oxycottin for my back and some Adderol so I dont fall asleep... but that does not count."




Druggies.

+1.

Idiots that think that drinking beer until they can't walk straight is an equivalent accomplishment as banging a supermodel or creating a cold fusion reactor.

I reject the OP's original contention.

I'm completely somer.  Totallly.

Have ben for since I went to bed.

Seriously, I hardly drink every day.

On a truly serious note, why worry about how sober someone claims to be?  Drunks brag about how much they drink all the time like it's some kind of badge of honor.  Let the sober do the same.

I think it's because they want a drink, but are trying to convince themselves not to have one.

Or the ones who start weird threads and then admit that yes, they're drunk.

I quit drinking over 18 years ago because I had a fondness for tequila which was getting the better of me. Nevertheless, I agree with the OP. All of my friends drink and it does not bother me, nor do I rage on them that sobriety is the best thing. It is the best thing for me I am certain, but I am not one to judge the actions of others based upon my personal habits.
