Sometimes, just sometimes, old people say something worth listening to. Ok, so it's like picking the needle out of a whole haystack of mis-remembered war stories, but those gems should be celebrated.
Tell us something worthwhile an old-type person has told you.
Note, we're leaving the definition of old up to you, you smooth-skinned youngsters.

was from my mum about 3 hours ago...
Never call your parents at 5am unless it's a real emergency.
In my defence I've been puking my gut up since around half past two and had rather ost track of time, so wanted to call and get reassurance that I wasn't going to die as it came out black. After she reminded me of the last time that happened I hung up and have vowed to drink far less coca cola.

about half a bottle a day, but I haven't been sick in a few years so I guess it's built up in my stomach lining and then all come out. My puke is clear now if that helps ,)
@Sex face, we're talking regular coca cola here, nothing alcoholic involved :(

Irresponsible young lady... I thought better of you than that. :D
So, did you call in sick at the old job, or is this the new one?

2 1/2 months ago and just started the new one last week. I know it doesn't look good, but I don't know why I'm puking, could be a food thing or a virus, so I'd rather not risk passing it on to anyone - aside from my flatmate - or spend the day there being ill.

Your five-a-day.
So you could have cider and black, with gin as 3.
Then wine with potato vodka, as 2.
Then bask in a healthy glow.

five glasses of red wine count?
Grapes are fruits, aren't they? And red wine uses the skins too, for extra goodness.
Edit - the 'breaking confidences' thing is a bugger. I have numerous pieces of information I'd like to talk to people about but can't because they were told in confidence. So much as I'd like to hear the gossip, I respect you all more for not saying.

as ancrenne says, they're different grapes. But Rioja, for example, is a region, where the wine is usually made from Tempranillo grapes.
And Shiraz and Syrah are the same thing. The difference is where in the world they're grown.
I like my red wine...

I worked in an off license too long so have seen first hand the ill effects it can have long term. That and the fact that alcoholism runs in my family.

Then it'll be tempting to carry it in when you're at home, once you're done with work.
Then you'll be into "smoking at home mode".
