The trick is to collect the AA chips and exchange them for drinks. Try the Copper Monkey. They know the routine. Or seek out Paul Gustings (he's at Broussard's now). Slide the chip and request your poison. Don't break eye contact.Thompson wrote: ↑Fri May 05, 2023 9:45 pmDid you go to AA for that year? I went ninety days, got my 90 day chip. It was three fingers of Maker’s Mark left by a guest and turned into the front desk where I was working the front desk and all I did was uncork it and sniff if, and that put an end to the ninety days. What happened, you see, was I got an erection from sniffing the Maker’s Mark. I clocked out and made it home, but it was one more wagon I fell off of.

AA means well, it’s the people that are in it (like everything) that fuck it up. Too many alphas, too many want to be bosses. The worst part is the sponsor part. You have to get a sponsor to help you work the steps and tell you what to do and then they turn on you when the meetings start. You feel small enough as it is. But AA is really a BONDING thing. You are supposed to bond with the people you hold hands with and talk to at the meetings. If the girl is pretty that you’re holding hands with you can pretend that you are bonding, she most likely is not thinking the same thing.

So, it’s 2:08am on Saturday May 5? and I don’t feel any pain. That frightens me a bit. DB, the chip routine is not worth it. I guess you could go claim your 24 hour chip at several meetings but you have to GO to them. Is one chip worth one drink? No. If one chip was worth a tall six-pack or a bottle then maybe. Those meetings are grueling.

Oh, I forgot to mention... You can skip the meetings. Just buy AA chips in bulk. They are cheap. Take a look at the token shop's website.

Ya lose a lot of posts when somebody knocks on the door in the middle of posting and it’s always a pain-in-the ass knock on the door, and now you have to start over on your post and . . .
The last time I was in Hospital the nurse stuck some kind of sphincter tester tube up my butt, and was not gentle about it, and told me, “You’ve got a real gnarly hemorrhoid up there.” I told her, “What does that have to do with the matter at hand here? I’d like to find out why I passed out on Magazine Street, stone undrunk, not if I have a gnarly hemorrhoid.”

Welcome, svosin. New guy buys, but I'll settle for a big swig of that Johnnie Walker Red Label in your avatar.
Don't worry. We're in no hurry.
Re: New to The Board? Then introduce yourself here...
Welcome, don't hack board members, post often, post drunk, post drunk often.
I'll have some of the JW Red as well.

You can take the drink away from the drunk, but you can’t take the the drunk away from the drink. Bottoms up, Svosin
