I got bored of it real fast and fell back into my soda vices recently. Not to say I don't drink, just not as much. Plus I get really down when I do.

i'm not a frequent drinker but i have been slightly drunk once before (during orientation camp for year 1 newcomers). i think i might have consumed more than 6 cans of beer in a party. firstly, i became more sociable and started talking a lot. then as the alcohol level increased, i remember i had difficulty making out what other people were saying because the background noise and their voices were mixed together and i became withdrawn.

but i was fully aware of the surroundings.

some people dont like certain drugs.

Maybe you should try others, like amphetamines or psychedelics.

Yes, fairly often.

How's it feel for you?
Is it "fun"?

It all depends on the situation, where I'm at, who I'm with, and what we're doing can greatly effect how I'm feeling/how much fun I'm having. Sitting in someones house or in a bar and drinking with a couple of people can be kind of boring for me sometimes, and other times it can be fun. However, I've noticed I tend to always have a good time when drinking outdoors, like at a cookout, on a boat, or sitting around a fire.

I didn't really drink when I was underage, aside from a couple champagnes during New Year's Eve. I also turned 21 recently, and went to a Japanese restaurant with my mom and ordered some sake. I drank the entire container, but also didn't feel much other than slightly light-headed. I felt slightly less inhibition to do whatever I felt like doing, but I still remained composed, and could walk in a straight line no problem.

I love drinking, and I believe my body was made for drinking. I don't get hangovers, the morning after a night of heavy drinking I always feel on top of the world. That being said I've not tried a large selection of alcohol, I just get the cheapest shit when the opportunity arises.

I am socially reclusive by nature, alcohol helps me out immensely. Not that I enjoy needing a social crutch, but shit, it helps, and I've made quite a few friendships thanks to alcohol. I'm a fan of it.

There is a huge difference between buzzed and drunk, though. Try getting drunk a few times with good friends. You'll like it.

Also, I really want to try absinthe some time, with the traditional louche, but I have no idea where I could get some other than paying a lot online.

Get hammered, snort codeine.

Alcohol is bad for the developmental part of your brain apparently and sometimes it makes people feel like shit or do stupid things so I'm not even going to bother until I'm like 21 or 22 or something.

If you're concerned about alcohol hindering brain development, you may want to wait on alcohol consumption until your mid- to late-20s.

Now it makes sense, doesn't it?

It's a depressant high. It's fun. Drinking to excess is not fun, nor is it cool.

I've had some terrible times because I wanted "just one more guys" or mixed this and that.

It's fine and great, and I will drink hundreds more times I'm sure but I far prefer pot.

I agree with this.
To be honest, gettin buzzed don't do it for me, but then again, I quite often take things too far. Drinking to a borderline lethal level is really not a good idea, because your night is wasted if you're involuntarily unconcious. Also, it's usually better if you can remember how epic the night was when you wake up the next day.
That being said, drink a little more at a time, and you may like it. If not, alcohol just ain't your thing, so try some other intoxicant, like maybe weed or salvia. Or, you know, entheogens are pretty amazing, but that could just be me.

I've always known my limits, never got drunk. I just don't feel like being drunk.
I like drinking a couple of beers, but never much more.
