Parties, peer pressure, Drinking. A short guide on how to not suck at being 'cool'

This is probably a fucking dumb question but I was just thinking of it.
Why does beer taste like shit and how can some people drink it like water? The smell and taste of it alone makes me nearly gag.
Different tastes I guess, same reason some people like one food but others don't
i think it's more of a case of becoming accustomed to it than your taste changing entirely.
that said, taste does seem to change as you age, especially towards more bitter flavours, like coffee and dark chocolate (and beer :v:)

More like a lay that will be able to keep his second member awake long enough to stimulate.

You think that autumn but last night I had my first (albeit weak) cup of coffee. I enjoyed it. Never enjoyed coffee-flavoured things before.
[you're right it does back it up, I misread it. its still the morning right now essentially go easy on me]

I love being high, but I love the effects of alcohol ten times more than that of marijuana. It's all a preference, I guess. Just be careful about smoking after drinking. The first time I tried, the room span around and I vomited my brains out.

The differences are substantial. Smoke before drink, good to go. Drink before smoke, no go.
I don't drink as in drinking to get drunk but I will enjoy a beer or two.
Drinking makes people change into assholes 90% of the time. I've been around it enough, last time one of my friends tried to fight me and steal my bike over something that I had nothing to do with. I know I can't generalize and say EVERYONE turns into a dick but I'd still rather not be around drunk people.
If I go to a party, I will smoke weed. I've always found it more enjoyable.

Grass before glass or you're on your ass
This is dumb. Just drink/get drunk, and learn from experience. If you want to be a noob about it, then use the units/percentage guidelines on the bottle you're drinking from.
Genuinely speaking, smoking dank while shit-faced is a bad idea, though it depends a lot on what plateau you're on.

that is a massive sweeping generalisation you're making there.

In my experiences. Like I said, I know I can't really generalize like that, but say I go to town, either one of my friends will try and fight someone, or guaranteed people will be aggressive towards me or my friends over absolutely nothing.

Yuengling's pretty tasty, anything else gives me that face.
The mixing thing is mostly a myth. You can have two different alcoholic drinks (In my case several) on a single night and nothing will happen as long as you take it on moderation and know what you're drinking. You can smoke and drink too, again, in moderation.
The trick is to drink up to the point where you feel like you shouldn't drink anymore. If you're feeling sick or very dizzy you probably shouldn't have more. You'll be shitfaced enough to pass for drunk but not enough to throw up everywhere.
The only alcohol I like to drink is wine and beer. I drink for the taste, I don't want to get drunk.
when I drink beer I tend to be a dickhead fratboy and shotgun it. Everything else I drink regularly. I've never been for drinking to get drunk, I just like numb myself a bit really

Your friends and the people you meet are dicks. I don't know anyone who has ever started a fight while drunk, and I only know one person who's been in a fight while drunk.
Yeah I know not everyone has the same problem or otherwise a lot more people wouldn't drink.
I've never needed alcohol to socialize anyway.

Nailed it.
[QUOTE=Pretiacruento;32331299]The worst thing about being a non-drinker is having ball-busting friends repeating constantly "COME ON MAN, JUST ONE BEER! DON'T BE SUCH A PUSSY!!1!ONE"
They pretty much offered me to pay me all the drinks I need to get drunk, but I always say no.
I learned to deal with that...[/QUOTE]

It's too funny seeing them fall flat on their face while trying to walk, for me to start drinking.

DRINKING MAKES YOU SLOPPY HAHHA
Moved into university on wednesday, been drinking every day since thursday, I NEED A NIGHT OFF.
All this did was just teach how to drink. I want my time back.

Well, it depends on your social skills/ anxiety talking to girls, really.
When I'm sober or drunk I can talk to girls exactly the same.
If you're sober or drunk and you don't talk to girls, you'll just be wall-flowering and not get a chance to even be 'attractive'.
Thanks to your thread I now have swag equivalent to Don Draper's.

I don't drink unless I'm at parties though, even then it's only like a tiny glass and nothing else. I'd rather not get drunk as hell and make a fool out of myself.

Fun is subjective.
Tequila shots are fun, probably my favorite alcoholic drink
