I'm 27 and I never had alcohol. The #1 reaction I get from people is usually, "Oh...is it a religious thing?" Then I say no, the say, "Well, good for you. You don't mind if I do, do you?"For me, it's just a personal choice. No real desire to look like a jackass when I'm drunk...I do that just fine sober, thank you. No worries dude! Scott, no worries.

There's alcohol in the world, there's people in the world, eventually they come together.I don't drink much, my parents don't drink at all now, were never big drinkers when they were young. Even at that there was a time when Dad said "hey let's try some microbeers" when I was about 12, and they let me have a taste and it was all gross.The surest way to keep your kids off alcohol is to give them a drink when they are young.

You're like 1.5 years older than me so you probably had tasted alcohol whether you knew it or not. Because of that, alcohol reminds me of bad-tasting medicine (that would make me choke rather than stop coughing). Nasty stuff. No <em>buzz</em> could be worth that. ... Or is that a Utah thing where cough meds even back when kids like us were riding dinosaurs did not have alcohol? Re: Twitter: Surely you have had cough medicine as a kid.
