Why don't people let me drink alone?

What the hell do they care if I just want to get drunk and watch cartoons? I will continue to drink alone and they can maybe come over and watch but I am not going out tonight. There are just some things you have to put your foot down about.

good man. you should of been here a month or so ago when most of our threads were on the subject of drinking alone.

Last night after leaving the bar and waiting for my cab I layed down on the sidewalk and stared straight up at the night sky. It was magical. Even though there were plenty of people around me, I was alone in the universe at that point.

I hear ya. When I was stationed in Okinawa in the USMC, following a long night at the bar, me and several of my friends sat by the sea wall and watched the tide roll in from the East China Sea. We passed around a bottle and never spoke a word. Like you said above UnkleLemmy, I was definetly in my own universe. Good times.

Ah, Okinawa. I spent 8 years there with a Marine. Orion, the beer of beers... And we used to be able to get real Red Horse on base.

When I drink alone I prefer to be by myself.

And my bathroom is all the way upstairs while the kitchen is just around the corner so you know what that means.

Orion, the beer of beers

Orion was a mighty tasty beverage. When I could get out to Naha there was a store that sold huge cans of Orion. I still have an empty one somewhere I kept as a souvenir. I think they were 40oz but it's a little foggy. We affectionetly named them "gas cans" because of the plastic handle and straw that came with each can.
Remember a wonderful little drink called Mojo?

God, Okinawa. I remember getting shitfaced with Mr. Miagi.

"Daniel-san, paint the fence. Daniel-san, pour more Saki!"

I would just like to say that this was my first posting. Listening to you quality drunkards. I am home.

i understand completely. all of my friends claim to be lovers of the booze, but it is only on rare occasion when i can get them to drink with me, well more than a beer anyways. but i don't mind, they don't mind if i'm constantly working on a good buzz. a friend told me at his forst wedding anniversary how he looks at sex after marriage. he said that you always have to be ready to go, because she rarely is, and when she is and your not, its going to be a very long time before you get some again. i apply the same philosophy to my friends. and when they are ready to drink, its worth it, because we all know how to have a good time.

Drinking alone. Its good. I split it up. Half the time I drink I go to the bar, the other half I drink alone. Its cheaper to drink alone. And you don't have to make anybody else comfortable. I can sit in the best chair in my house whn I drink alone.

Why is it that every time you lie down on the sidewalk you have to go to the tank? And why is it that whenever the policeman "helps" you up yoiu have to throw a swing?

I like to drink with me too. I think everyone does. I never get no shit about it except in the morning after they open the door to let me go home. Ah, whatever.

I agree 100%! I love lieing down on the sidewalk after a good drinking binge. Everybody is all, "You OK" or "Can I help you, whats wrong?". Nothings worng, its great! Come down and join me, you'll see how great it is!

I drink alone Monday - Thursday then the GF shows up on Friday. I totally dig it. I get home from work and watch back to back episodes of the Simpsons and have bourbons. It is damn relaxing.

I love drinking alone-that's when I break out the *good stuff* Plus I get to pick the tunes.
