Dudes/Sweater Puppy and OSF


Feb 3, 2021, 12:50 PM

Please be careful during this pandemic. We all give each other crap and argue and dumbshit like that, but this is serious. I have a friend that lost his job and he just sits on couch all day and drinks. The guy is going to drink himself to death. We are trying to pull him out of the gutter, but it’s hard.

Just take care of yourself and make sure you are keeping yourself in check. This was an article I found. Scary, but real.

Was partying like I was 19 again.

McLovin and you have kept me in check. Ofc, McLovin failed miserably this week.

stones on this one for sure. I have cut it back by a ton, probably should do more, but watching my bud is crazy.

Like today, he is at the casino all hammered and its 1pm. I fully expect him to call me and tell me that he needs a ride home.

hungover almost every day. Cut that way back at this point. Have a couple drinks at night to unwind but never buzzed and never hungover. These are crazy times.

Wife's best friend owns a real pinky out wine shop.


Feb 3, 2021, 1:08 PM

Her income has easily doubled this year and she's a killer person so it's been awesome to see the effect such a drastic change has had on her life. So I mean, there's a good side to corona boozing too.

I have seen stats though saying alcohol sales in general were up 75% in 2020 over 2019. That's just crazy.

You're the one accusing me of virtue signaling?


Feb 3, 2021, 1:10 PM

Just teasing.

Depression, domestic abuse, and alcoholism are probably peaking because of Covid and lockdowns unfortunately. Your friend may not appreciate it right now, but if he pulls through and to clearer mind, he most certainly will, good on you and your other friends helping.

But for serious - that article is scary.

dude, 4 freaking bottles of wine a day


Feb 3, 2021, 1:17 PM

4!

I have a friend who married a gal and she drank a half gallon of vodka everyday. I cannot understand how your body even manages to process that. She is still alive too, somewhat sober now and a good relationship with their son.

Yea - thats insane. Also the first lady


Feb 3, 2021, 1:20 PM [ in reply to dude, 4 freaking bottles of wine a day ]

"I bought six bottles of wine, a bottle of vodka and a bottle of brandy. I just wanted to die. I really wanted to kill myself, I felt like I was a complete failure and there was no way forward."

Thats just depression and drinking to deal with it.

1 bottle of wine on mondays and wednesdays


Feb 3, 2021, 1:21 PM

Sip moonshine on Tuesdays while watching moonshiners.

Beer Thursday

Liquor Friday and saturday

Beer Sunday

Nothing once a week every now and then. Got to stop sometimes to make sure you still can.

I like your funny words magic man


I go in spurts. 3-4 days in a row, then 3-4 days dry


Feb 3, 2021, 1:34 PM

When I drink it's usually bourbon, on the rocks, about 2-3oz in a glass. X2 usually. Sometimes x1, rarely x3. Sometimes 2-3 beers (6.0abv). 4 for Clemson football games because one per quarter.

Never get plowed. Well, rarely. Like once every 6 months will I get drunk.

To Coke Zero and Mega Bud.

Feb 3, 2021, 2:26 PM

but I've noticed a much more drastic intake of the pots than the booze. It's died down after the first few months of the q-tine, but man I was back on college level blazing there for a hot minute.
