Can't quite believe it That's terrible. I think everyone knows someone who has had cancer before. It's just a horrible, horrible disease. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really is horrible. He's only 21. It's been caught early enough, so hopefully he pulls through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrowhillclyde Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Why, when you've decided that you are giving the drink a miss for a while (e.g. January for me) do those who are with you almost seem to want to make it their mission to get you to drink. Thats twice recently its really pissed me off. The old Chewin the fat "Huv a drink" sketch is so true. What difference does it make to them that I'm on a coke? I got it bad last week at an after work short gathering on Friday and a bit lesser after the football today (i didnt even want to go to the pub but those getting a lift from me were already there) General jist of each conversation (repeatedly); Workmate : Whit ye having? me :Just a Coke, I'm giving it a miss for a month - loosing some weight, working on fitness, etc Workmate : Aye right, yer getting a lager. me :No, seriously, Ive not drank for a few weeks now, so dont want to break my run. Anyway based on the fact I'm not drinking Ive got other stuff planned out with the kids tonight. Workmate : Here!, barman - get him a lager Everyone else there : oh come on tae f**k and loosen up - get a beer in me : geez peace, eh? I just want a coke. Dont buy me a lager yer just wasting your money cos I aint drinking it. workmate : Barman - make it a stella - this fannys taking a bit of persuading me : dont bother. Get me a coke. workmate : I'm buying and its a stella (to now pissed of looking barman) me (now getting pissed off) : look, gie it a fucking rest will ye - I dont want a beer. everyone else : f**k sake, no need to get shitty about it and drink your beer (as lager arrives) me : f**k this im off home (leaves) Monday morning : everyone - Jesus whit was your problem on Friday? me : aaaaaarrrrrrgggggggghhhhhhhhh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats twice recently its really pissed me off. The old Chewin the fat "Huv a drink" sketch is so true. A couple of my pals don't drink. They never have and just don't want to. It makes absolutely no difference to me or the rest of the group and we have brilliant nights out. But like you say, a couple of times when we've met certain people on nights out, there's actually nearly been fights because some drunk arsehole won't accept that they dont want a "proper drink". It's pathetic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats twice recently its really pissed me off. The old Chewin the fat "Huv a drink" sketch is so true. I know what you mean, and the sad thing is, I know I used to do that as well! I don't do that now, and I respect other people's choice of drink, but I was more of an arsehole when I was younger, so I recognise that conversation, and you're right, it is far too common. :: cringe :: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 (edited) I used to get a fair bit of the old "aw, what you daen?" or "hae a proper drink" if I had a bottle of water towards the end of the night. It was only to rehydrate me, or sober a bit and I couldn't really understand what was wrong with that. I got my own back earlier last year when one of the guys who'd previously slated me for having a bottle of water was sitting with one after I returned from the bar. He was absolutely wasted and was trying to sober up. I'd have done the same in that position, but I thought I'd reciprocate what he said to me in that situation, and told him he was a pussy. He took the slagging quite well, in fairness. Edit: It's only been 2010 for nearly a month. Oops.

GypsyTillIDie Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I don't remember feeling as bad I do now for years. I won't go into details or anything vulgar like that but I'm really, really unwell - totally un-alcohol related as well. Urgh, doctors tomorrow - ya dancer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
