I feel bad, I somehow completely forgot you stopped drinking decades ago. 

Don't feel bad and certainly don't drink over it! ?

The only time I really deal with alcohol is cooking or taking a sip of what my older sisters get the one or two times a year we eat out.

We played a soccer game one night, 10 PM start time. Raining and windy the whole time. Turned to snow at the end of the game. When I got home, all i wanted was a cold beer and a warm shower. So it ends up feeling like when you drink a beer in a hot tub. Your body is warm, and the refreshing cold beer just makes everything okay. 

As for not drinking, don't ever feel bad about it. I took a six month sabbatical after a friend died. Do what makes you happy.

Sober since 2003! Though I wish I had kept track of the date like John did.

Speaking of which, I kinda wish Walton Goggins had a role in this somewhere. 

Even though Walt's had a few Tarantino roles, I think it'd be greedy to want Boyd in a movie where we get Raylan and Dewey Crowe. 

But hey, if Tarantino wants to do another western with half the cast of Justified, I'm there.

Last time I tasted alcohol would be 1988 or 89. I was 14 years old at the time. Not that I was any kind of drinker before that. But where most teenagers get their first taste and go "This is fantastic let's do it all the time!", I got slightly tipsy once and thought it sucked and to not do it again. Most people who stopped drinking early have a "Woke up in a pool of vomit and urine" story. I don't.

I just dislike the taste. Took one sip and thought it was crap. So far that seems to continue with my constantly thinking this might taste ok if there was actually no alcohol in it. I should probably try virgin drinks at some point.

I drink maybe 1 time a year. And then it is just one shot of vanilla Crown Royal.

Drank heavy from 16 until I hit 22. Haven't drank much since then.

I used to manage a bar so I was a heavy drinker from about 2001-2013. Nowadays, I’ll try to have some drinks and they just don’t taste the same to me or maybe, it’s just lost it’s fun for me. I guess there’s a lot better things I could spend my money on.

I like it. This place totally feels like Cheers, even if I'm just a perpetual extra in the background and not Norm or Cliff. 

Most of the main characters retired from DVDVR or they pop in occasionally.  You're posting in a spin off.

I went about 4 years without a drink at one point.  I drink occasionally but it's rare.   

Edit: I should mention in my college years I was drinking pretty heavily,  I see no reason to get back to it.

Alcohol is yummy. I went to Paris and had this amazing brandy with a beef bourguignon that was amazing. It changed my life, it was so good. Beer is delicious, the darker, the better. 

I also cook regularly with it. I don't drink red wine, but I have a bottle in my kitchen perpetually for sautees and soups. I also keep a cheap bottle of brandy and whiskey for baking and making sweet desserts. 

I drink only about once a week because I want a flat stomach. My vanity outweighs my gluttony, I suppose. 

I totally understand why someone wouldn't like the taste of alcohol, though. I know people who don't drink for that reason. But if you're cooking, man, you have to at least have some wine in the kitchen. French onion soup with a hit of Spanish wine or a burger cooked in bacon fat and a nice porter is just too good.

Do we now have to fantasy cast the DVDVR crew as cheers characters? 

If I don't fit in Cheers anywhere, I'll gladly volunteer for the DVDVR presents: Seinfeld.

The funny thing about all the alcohol talk is that just yesterday I discovered that my wife's cousin - whom I've known the 7+ years we've been together - is a fan of the pro wrestling.

The way it came up was due to drinking talk. It was a cookout/1st birthday party for my littlest one and people were drinking summer beers. Somebody had some Narragansett shandy and I said how those go down TOO easy, and when I go see wrestling in Massachusetts I always double fist.

I thought it was gonna be a throwaway comment and he says how he's gone to a bunch of NXT and ROH in Lowell (I usually hit up Evolve or Beyond in Melrose or Worcester), and how he's been enjoying the G1. All this damn time and I had no idea he was even a fan. No idea how much longer it would've gone on without me mentioning my penchant for crushing shandies at shows.
