Welcome to humanity, where assholes expect you to love up to their idea of how life should be. My best advice, realize your value and worth does not rely on the approval of others.

I feel that. I never understood the desire to consume alcohol. That stuff tastes nasty and does a lot of damage to the body over one's lifetime. Getting smashed at events and not being able to remember anything fun you did doesn't make sense to me either. But I don't individually rake others over the coals about their choices, so why should they do that to you or me?

I always try to ignore people but it is very difficult to do here when surrounded by "cool" guys

Kyliroth2307yArgh, hope you can ignore them... absolutely piss boiling.
The UK, especially Newcastle, has a bad drinking culture; where it's to drink to get pissed on anything, irregardless of taste.
As a kid, it was mandatory to drink until you were upside down in a taxi heading to Diggerland.
Definitely love alcohol though -- just not getting blotto'd. A good Rioja, or a fresh Guinness, or a smoked whiskey definitely goes well with some music and good mates. Even whilst coding:

Subjective of course though, and that's why I hate these poeple who mock you. Fuck 'em. Enjoy what you like as they'll most likely 'live for the weekend' and be boring bastards themselves. -
@Kyliroth ++ for the balmer peak reference. Automated schnapss IV ftw.
Eat whatever you want, drink whatever, or not. Who cares? as long as you don't try to push your views on anyone else... -
How it works:
95% of people belong to groups
Half of them are ok with people who are not in their groups.
The other half thinks their groups are better than other groups. This applies to any belief and idea which applies to billion people -
bondman2447yummm why laptop if its lone island.. i would go empty handed.. i mean arent we all working towards that?
-
Well, if.it makes you feel better, I wont judge you for not drinking and not being a vegetarian :/

Activated27yI also don't drink. And yes, often times I'm referred to as "the one that doesn't drink". You shouldn't care! I have exactly the same opinion as you. Alcohol is a drug. It releases you from the real world and for a lot of people it is a way to escape. It is not something that should be so common in our society. One day people will realise how bad it is. In the past, smoking was very common and totally ok. Nowadays, everyone hates it when you are smoking (in Belgium, where I live) because of the bad publicity. I hope the same will happen to alcohol.

mundo0349797yWtf! You don't drink ? Not even craft beer? No meat?
Shit, you must be a person that makes decisions.
I fucking hate people who mock me for not drinking and being vegetarian. Why everyone tries to get on my nerves when I do no wrong to them. I fucking hate my life. I want to go to lone island with my laptop.
