Sarah (7798 KP) created a post in Dear Smashbomb....

This isn't really a Dear Smashbomb advice post, more like an opinion poll...

What are everyone's views on alcohol? Do you drink a lot/too much/not a all?

I'm intrigued to know how everyone views alcohol. For me, whilst I can't say no to a nice glass of wine (or 2) or a cocktail, I don't like to get past tipsy or merry as I don't like the feeling of not being in control of my actions.

I don't care much what other people think. I do now have the reputation of the "non drinker", but it doesn't bother me. Sometimes it is amusing to be the sober one and see others make fools of themselves. Save those photos for when you really need them! ?

I'm not a big drinker at all, I maybe have one a year. The alcohol I like is on the more expensive side, and I don't like the feeling. I'm typically the designated driver in most cases. I do attend happy hours, but always just have a cup of water. I get made fun of a little, but I know it's part of the territory. It also doesn't help to come from a family with alcohol issues (extended, not nuclear).

Movie Favorite

"London. The swinging ’60s. But not for these broke actors, who have just left drama school. To break the monotony of the phone never ringing, they make the fatal error of leaving London for “a charming weekend in the country.” Gay uncles, disgruntled farmers, terrifying poachers, and lots and lots and lots of alcohol ensue. Hang on for the ride. Richard E. Grant has never been better. Paul McGann plays it straight and anchors the whole thing. The soundtrack is wonderful. Must watch with alcohol."

Used to be better...
I used to really love ibotta but then it seemed to evolve more toward a focus on alcohol.

I have nothing against alcohol, we just don't buy hardly any.

My favorite deals were the produce deals. We would often see what ibotta had rebates on for the week and plan our meals accordingly. Unfortunately, the deals also have shifted toward boxed foods, which doesn't work for a family that does a lot of cooking from scratch, like us.

It has the potential to be amazing but it's just not what it used to be and most of the time we don't even bother with it anymore.

Raw, cloying and close
I felt drunk watching this and not just from the excessive amounts of alcohol consumed by the characters. Amy is fantastic as always, what a treat to get her level of screen presence spread across a TV series instead of the short time a film provides.

This is goes with the book Closure. Sylvia Stein really knows how to capture her readers. I got this in audio, and the narrator is amazing as well.

Garrison is Sara's father. He is struggling with addiction of alcohol. After losing his wife to cancer.

Again this is a powerful story and I recommend this story to everyone.

Amazing for a small gathering or larger with some tweeking. Great way to find out just how horrible of friends you have. I wish we would play it more though. And buying expansions give you plenty of options to help keep the game fresh!

The Ozzy part...no please...
I'm sure the book (I shall definitely read it) is going through all the details of the components' life, and it is important to show their experiences in order to understand their music....but which music? It is only about showing the craziness and their drugs and alcohol addiction.
