it's not boring
It means you can make your life exciting without going into dodgy pubs and slipping £30 to a dodgy man.

I've known all my dealers well and they have on the whole been thoroughly nice people

Case in point
I don't like drinking, or being around drunk people. I find them tedious.

You've met my dad on more than one occasion, so you should understand this sentiment...

Wait til you meet mine.
He's exactly the same as yours, but smaller and less racist.
I've even considered a dry wedding, but then that's not fair on those of us who like a few drinks and DON'T get sent to bed, only to re-emerge three hours later, toplesss, wearing bermuda shorts, and playing a harmonica.

I'm really going off booze and drunk people. I'm losing my temper with them a lot more.

*re-thinks wedding outfit*
by contrast, mr b3th can drink the best part of a bottle of single malt, and not appear even the slightest bit tipsy.

I start giggling and falling over after two drinks. I am a really cheap date.

I get plastered I do. Then either get really loud and dancy, or try to start cooking, which scares the bejesus out of djtp.

He will never bring you here

well, she went and got herself knocked up
so he probably doesn't want her anymore. Now, if he had an Alex Jones can....

There were lots of clips of her in a bikini when she was very young
on Almost Famous on BBC3. I recorded it and offered to let him see.
Altruism right here.

Does he still have a thing for the Charlotte Church?

( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Thu 13 Jan 2011, 12:56, Reply)

He doesn't go on about her so much
But now she's not married to that sad puffin, he might bump her up the list a bit.

I really don't like drunks eaither.
That's not nesserarly someone who's an alcholic, but someone who's attitude totally changes when they're drunk, eg, they get all soppy or angry or whatever.

I have seen drunk me on film, and I think she's a mong.
Friendly enough and not aggressive, but I avoid being like that more than I used to.
I bloody love the taste of wine though.

I have known a surprising number of functioning alcoholics
it's ordinary drunk people who annoy the bejesus out of me.

I often pretend to go to the toilet and then sneak away from a night out.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Thu 13 Jan 2011, 12:51, Reply)

Hah
I have become legendary for my ability to disappear from nights out. So much so that on the recent stag do in Riga, I was assigned a minder to stop me from going home.

I don't know if they thought I was going to flag down a passing 727 or what.

I just get bored of being drunk, I think.
Bed starts calling.

It's rare that I get proper drunk, I usually just stop drinking alcohol a shade past tipsy. This is also the time I start craving bed.

I thought you people started fights
when drunk and bored. Simply going home is a much softer, more Southern thing to do.

one of my friends went on a lad's holiday to the Canaries for 10 days
and came home after 5. He is just as boring as me, which is one of the reasons I love him.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Thu 13 Jan 2011, 12:53, Reply)

I left a two-week family holiday after one week.
Had to pay for a flight home and all that jazz.
A week in Liverpool loafing about was better than their idea of a holiday. I couldn't keep up, and my grandparents are included in this bunch of hedonists!

of dj with the parents on holiday somewhere. He was about 14, and looks bored out of his mind, as well as mightily pissed off.

our parents' idea of holiday photos
is ramrod-straight in front of something to prove you've been there.

The only thing missing is a newspaper to show they were definitely alive on this date...

For my family
It usually involves my mum with a glass of something in her hand looking squiffy. My sis and I compiled an album of such shots for her as a laugh. Thailand, Cambodia, Greece... all with a cocktail or glass of wine in her hand, bless 'er!
