    I appreciate the sentiment, very truly.

    Hah, my entire patriarchal lineage is massive alcoholics, so I actually drink alcohol very rarely, maybe a few times a year.

    I have managed to never get addicted to the stuff or become abusive from it, I’m basically just an absurdly lightweight drinker.

    Two whiskeys like in this pic in a row and I’d be stumbling. Two more soon after and I’d be slurring and stumbling.

    Or, the optimistic take on that is I can get a double shot of bourbon and nurse it for 4 to 6 hours and be enjoyable buzzed the whole time haha.

    Maybe someday I’ll find somebody, but right now I’m quite happy single.

    Maybe a few years go by and I’ll try again haha.

    Either way, cheers mate, probst, etc.

      Ah, then I’ll have a La Croix with ya, or a NA bitters and tonic or whatnot. I do not come from a lineage of alcoholics, but since COVID my partner and I have been drinking too much, all of the time. It’s definitely something we need to fix! Two shots of whiskey like in the pic would give me a slight buzz. It’s the exactly opposite of weed for me—one small hit and I’m overthinking all of my flaws for the next couple hours.

      Much love tho.
