Alcohol is for people who have shit lives. Face it if your life was good then you wouldn't be drinking any alcohol at all.

Cigarrettes, well lets face it, if you need cigarrettes then you probably need nicotine gum. Kick the habit you rancid peon. I don't want to sit next to someone who smells like smoldering paper and dried leaves.

Drugs, your life must be either crap or shallow. It is possible to enjoy yourself without being stoned you know.

And why is lindsey back? :confused:

In English please?

Oh and she's back because she realised she hadn't corrupted our minds for about 5 minutes. Curse you lindsey!

I don't think Lindsey is back... the way you treat her it isn't surprising :rolleyes: I simply came across this thread and had to have my say as some of the advice was...well... I disagreed with it.

Sorry if I did anything wrong... I didn't did I?

I don't drink regularly. Hate the tastes. Blech. But... it does warm you on the inside, like some kind of liquid stomach hug. *wraps self in happiness* I've never drunk so much to lose control or anything like that. I don't want to do that.

Getting other people drunk to take advantage of their less impared self, now that's an entirely different kettle of trout.

Smoking and drugs... not for me, thanks. Dad smokes, and it's revolting, just revolting. The smell does actually get everywhere, and no amount of Fabreezing gets rid of the retch. My fingertips get yellowed, so naturally I'm a source of amusement at school.

Why do you keep jumping to the conclusion that you're always wrong?

And although I don't really have a problem with her, apprantly lindsey is a bit of an idiot. But then again, I was a bit of an idiot when I was 12.

Bloomin 'eck Max! What have you been drinking... whiskey!?!? Hard spirits neat?

Believe me lager and beer don't give you that warm feeling!!!

Probably some kind of spirit like you said.

Sloe gin and a white wine of some sort. Sheesh, get off my back.

Lager and beer? I'm not that way inclined, thank you very much. ;)

I'm not on your back! Just nosey! ;)

My boyfriend drinks gin and tonic... I have his life about it being a woman's drink... much to his annoyance!

Gin doesn't agree with me... it depresses me... and it all ends in tears. Its not known as "Mother's Ruin" for nothing you know...

And there's nowt wrong with lager and beer... lager and lime is very refreshing as is a shandy... and a nice stout is quite comforting in the winter with the added bonus that you don'y usually get absolutely palatic after a couple of pints!

That's a great joke you have right there max. The problem is, it isn't funny. :D

Was he trying to make a joke concerning his sexuality or something?

Totally over my head I'm afraid!!!

Sorry!

Sometimes with Max, it's hard to tell if even he knows what his jokes really mean. :p

'Alcohol is for people who have shit lives. Face it if your life was good then you wouldn't be drinking any alcohol at all.'

What exactly classifies as a "good life"? And i think it's that generalisation that the people in Zimbabwe don't need, thankyou.

Dunno if this was said here, I'm never to clear on where I receive my useless facts buuuut,
Did you know that if alchohol was discovered/invented now instead of by the Greeks etc many thousands of years ago, it would actually be classed as a class A drug.

'Did you know that if alchohol was discovered/invented now instead of by the Greeks etc many thousands of years ago, it would actually be classed as a class A drug.'

Yes. I believe i said that over a year ago.

Jacob, people in Zimbabwe have no idea I made any kind of generalization. Alcohol is bad, period. If you think you need it for whatever reason, then there is clearly something you aren't getting.

A good life is one in which you enjoy yourself in a healthy manner. I don't drink, smoke, or take drugs, and I still have plenty of fun.

C'mon mate, you have to drink at least once.

Death, while I don't support excessive drinking or the use of drugs for non-medicinal purposes, are you really sure it's fair to judge people the way you did yesterday? I mean, of course no one needs alcohol or drugs or cigarettes, but the truth is that most of the people who consume these things can't help themselves. Alcoholism can't be detected, so people have no way of knowing if they're going to have a single drink and be hooked for life. People can be pressured to do things, or make bad decisions. I'd say most people probably had good lives until they started taking these things, and now they can't stop, so don't you think you should be a little more sympathetic towards them?

'If you think you need'

Ahh, but you see, that's different. You said "anybody who drinks alcohol" or something. But now you say "anybody who needs alcohol" which is true. If they need it then there is something wrong with their life.

I do believe nobody has yet mentioned that small doses of alcohol are good for blood circulation. And what's all this about jokes? It wasn't so much a joke as something ever so slightly amusing. Taking a set phrase and using it in a different situation seems to lead to more confusion than entertainment, sadly.

To be honest Max... I interpreted your reference to gin and white wine... and some one being on your back... a leeetle bit differently!!!

*Nudge nudge... wink wink*

I aplogise to any gay posters reading this... I mean no offence!

No offence taken.

well as for R rated movies, ive only seen horror movies (like Freddy vs. Jason). their bassically like pg 13 movies with nudity and gore... and some parts that might make you wet yourself. as for the other things you mentioned, i havent done those things.... yet.

'I aplogise to any gay posters reading this... I mean no offence!'

I can't stand it when people apologise for things that aren't offensive...

Better than not appologizing for things that are.

Offensiveness is in the eye of the beholder...

Hmm, that's quite true. But there are some things, which are generally considered offensive, no matter who you are. (I don't care to list them here)

Indeed, anyway, i just didn't see how CB's statement was offensive. People are too Politically Correct these days, things such as hinting at Homosexuality as a joke can be considered offensive to some people. T'is wacky.

Jacob, I love you.

Offensive wasn't my intention... simply cracking a joke... or attempting too!

I was aware that some people (especially, perhaps some posters from across the pond... British humour and all!) hense my pre-emptive apology!

Sorry guys!

And DI... LOL! Nice!

Is that the kind of love between a man and a woman or the love of a fine cuban cigar?

Come on DI, spill the beans on the tatty, worn rug that is Oddworld Forums. Tell us all why you love Jacob! :lol:

Because next to you and I, he's one of the biggest assholes around here.

Whoa, here comes another joke about my sexuality, right? "He said he loves big assholes!"

Although I like to joke around, I'm totally straight. Hell, I was even engaged not too long ago.

Haha, no don't worry dave, no sexuality jokes here, none whatsoever you big gay asshole. :)

Now THAT was funny.

Marry me Death?

Oh yes definately. ;)

You two are so cute.

You know, I'm legally ordained. I can perform your wedding for you.

Well apparantly, so is Mac. :|

Word.

Is it me or has Death been trying to insert his head up DI's anus without the Butter?

No offense...but it just...seems that way, as in...an overly friendly way. What do you want, Death? What do you want from him? Aside from the obvious...

Jacob, don't become jealous. You know you're the only one for me.
