I don't drink. I prefer to remain in total control of all of my faculties at all times. I'm not keen on poison ingestion.
Same here.
Drinking is bad >_>
Especially if you are under the age. Don't drink underage, people.

In terms of beer, Corona is my favourite.

Krillin would be correct, Hercule. Alcohol of any content is a toxin in your system, which is why your liver has to oxidize it. It also interferes with your synaptic responses. The legal drinking age is 21 in this country for a reason: it's around the age your liver (and brain) is fully developed. Drinking underage interferes with said growth. Consumption of alcohol, no matter how much or how little, is bad.
As for me, I prefer green apple Schnapps. The Pucker stuff. Red rum is nice, and JD on occasion. Both are best chased with Coke if you don't drink it straight. 151 (either/or) is when you want to get really fucked up. Although the old saying goes "beer before liquor," I like to start off with the classic bitch beer, Mike's. Corona is excellent for poker nights.

Alcohol is a toxin, but it's not some man-made poison. Wine is made from grapes, it's all natural.
I find it's more of an acquired taste, Herc. I didn't like it for years, but now I quite like it. I still drink pretty rarely, usually just at special occasions or if I've gotten a bottle of something for Christmas or the like.

I hear Red Wine is the healthiest.
There was a study that red wine is healthy for your heart...but the people that underwent the testing was the actual wine companies. It was their idea and them paying the scientists so people would buy it. Some of it is healthy but only a little bit. No more than a glass.

Just to retcon my previous post before someone complains about it: no, not all alcoholic drinks are natural. Drinking alcopops is like drinking pure food colouring. And I do think drinking too much, too often is unhealthy. I don't see a problem with the occasional drink, though.

Hercule, I'll grant you that a little bit of alcohol MIGHT be beneficial to your system, much in the same way that strenuous exercise keeps your body from atrophying. However, that doesn't change the fact that it is poison, and even the smallest drop will interfere with your body's mechanisms, no matter how slight.
And yes, red wine is good for your heart, from what I've heard. My grandfather actually had to drink a glass of red wine each night for awhile. However, I'm fairly certain that there's something else besides the alcohol in red wine that is healthy for you, not the alcohol itself.

It's poison that happens to have an obscure application that might be somewhat considered "advantageous". I'm sure cyanide could have some sort of a medicinal application as well, if it didn't have a nasty habit of killing people.

It's not exactly what it is derived form. Sodium and chlorine by themselves are dangerous for you, but sodium chloride is consumed in vast amount every day. Grapes might be healthy (I don't know), but that does not prove that wine isn't.
I've had wine twice, and I thought it tasted bad, personally.

The Japanese made alcohol out of RICE! Rice people! Obviously we're supposed to get drunk.

Fuzzy speaks the truth. If man/woman weren't meant to get drunk, then the spirits wouldn't have allowed us to stumble on how to make it.

That's desperation right there. Lets not even talk about the lengths people go to in prison to make booze.
Before Ethanol is Ethanol, it's beer! BUHAHAHAHAHAHA!
