    I hate how intoxicated (pun intended) drinking culture is within our world. It’s literal posion for the human body and yet it’s at every adult social event and I just don’t want to drink poision. Pro tip, if someone asks you why you aren’t drinking, just say you’re driving even if you’re not. Shuts them up.

    I have no problem with this. It’s entertaining seeing people who were never going to go anyways cry about it.
