Everyone who enjoys alcohol is dumb. And has a failing liver. And kills people. Especially those that choose to ride bikes! That is, when they're not raping their friends.
Oh, the bliss of ignorance!
Now let's all dress up like punks and fight it. On the internet! That'll do a whole lot of good!
it wasnt an easy answer to teenage angst. it came from dissatifaction from working in the dare program and with MADD. that and compounded by more and more personal experiences, i didnt want to sit idly by and watch my friends and family die off from others bad choices. ill be the first to admit i wont jump at you and slap a beer out of your hands or put out a cig if your smoking near me. that does nothing, except piss people off. **** most of my friends drink, my roomate drinks. i let people do what they want to do, but i want to make sure people can stay within their safety zone and if they do happen to get a little tipsy id rather see them home my self then let them endanger their lives and potentially others. yeah i sound snotty and arragant, but when so many ****ty things have happened to the people that are closest to you you cant but help and get a little pissed off and point fingers. i am for education and compassion before militant actions. if you ask any of my friends when i am at the bars with them, who is the person driving everyone home, whos holding hair when they puke.
the only reason i snapped like i did was because it seemed like some people were glorifing being drunk and riding and thinking of them selves and indistructable people. i dont want the little kids(if there are any) in here to think that bike culture is all about bar hopping and riding the night away without consiquence.
oh and you will get one of the most resilant livers out there if you happen to get mine. chances are high that you could get it. i dont plan on living anylonger than 40, anything after that age is a waste to me. seniority and senality dont seem to appealing to me.
