Got Totally Drunk, Aren't I Cool!

Got Totally Drunk, Aren't I Cool!

Well, not me but I had to get your attention.

I've been wanting to write about this issue for a while but never got around to it.

What is it with people boasting about being drunk as if it's something to be proud of?

It's freaking annoying and plain stupid. There's nothing good about filling yourself up with toxic chemicals that wreck your body and mind.

And if people really want to drink, why is it so hard to control themselves? Is everyone getting so weak that they have no will power? Or is it something that they think is 'fun'? It is totally possible to have just as much (if not more) fun without getting drunk.

And if someone doesn't drink, people who do might not accept them as much as they would if they did get drunk.

How did it get to be so much part of the culture that people brag about getting drunk to sound cool. And this isn't just teenagers. It's everyone (well, way more than necessary).

Is there any hope for change?
