do you drink?

[Uptight 534]

to be honest, i think people actually drink alcohol because of the effect and not because of the taste. because it does (for the most part) taste like garbage.
for example; drinking can help you forget, or it can just help make a good time a better time.

I disagree. It may seem like that when you just view the younger audience (i.e. stereotypical college), but for older adults, they drink because of the taste (tastes good, pairs well with certain food, etc.). As for the tasting terrible claim, alcohol is an acquired taste that I think people enjoy more as they age.
