Drinking/Drugs

[Shiny]

Seized on the NZ Border. I already do own one, however this was a gift for a friend. Not much I can do, at least there are no further repercussions.

[Furah]

Are bongs even illegal in NZ?

Q, How often do you people drink alone ?

When you do how much do you drink

What are you doing whilst drinking

The only time I have even come close to drinking alone is if I'm drinking while playing Xbox Live before going out. But, I'll be playing against my roommates who are in their rooms on the floor above me.

[Furah]

When I drink alone I drink lightly, and I always play games.

I don't drink at home often anymore, and I only have one or two. Did go through a period of having some whiskey every night while watching TV, but I didn't keep that up for long. :thumbup:

 

I'll drink at home before I'm heading out for the night, as most people do.

[mcneilp]

I'll drink occasionally at home, normally watching films/listening to music or playing video games. Only a beer or two though, nothing hangover inducing. I'll have the odd beer with meals and whatever as well.

[fastortoise]

If I'm drinking alone at home its because other people on the other end of the Skype call are drinking, too.

 

Also, I got wrecked at beer pong by 2 drunk dudes last night. But since winner stays, a girl smacked one of the drunk guys really hard in the face because she wanted to play me next so it was worth it.

[Furah]

I've never played beer pong. Although, knowing my friends, we'd probably put shots in the cups instead of beers.

[i_love_burritos]

christ you guys make me seem like an alcoholic. granted back home I don't drink nearly as frequently, but recently I've been hitting the piss quite hard

[Nomrombom]

Never been drunk, never drank in an attempt to get drunk. Taste of alcohol is absolutely disgusting to me. Bleehhhh

[Range_This11]

There is no such thing as the taste of alcohol. There are different types that all taste distinctly different, you just have to find one you enjoy.

 

I drank by myself quite a bit this summer. Usually it was 4 or 5 or 6 beers sitting out in the sun after work, but I had enough friends around where we would all end up getting together and playing lawn games.

[Furah]

The fact that alcohol has no flavour makes for easy hiding of it.

[Nomrombom]

Okay, well, I've tried wine (reds and whites), beer, anise, and vodka. They all tasted bitter and terrible.

[Furah]

Have you mixed the vodka with anything? Plus aren't you 15? Your sense of taste will change as you get older.

[Tim]

Dont be so concerned to drink at 15 anyway. From personal experience and seeing it (especially with my "party-going" sister), it turns some of the nicest people I've met into absolute scum that I want to hit.

 

Hell, I didnt develop a taste for certain spirits until 19.

[Furah]

Yeah, and I've met drunk 15yos that I can actually converse with. Your experiences may vary.

[Randox]

From personal experience, if drinking at 15 turned you into an [wagon], then drinking that same drink years later will still turn you into an [wagon].

[Furah]

Been dreaming about drug use more and more. Annoying that doing them is a bit difficult for me, since police newly have powers to set up road-side drug screenings.

Yup.

[Nomrombom]

Wow. That's even worse policy than the US, jesus.

Hah, don't sweat it. In and around Sydney I've only seen it a couple of times and (I'll get to this part later), but unless you're a crackhead/ or a meth-head you really ought not to worry. Friend lives very close to newie uni and the reasons why they're doing this is because there's a growing meth problem there. So yeah if you are stopped and haven't hit the methpipe in the past 3 days or smoked a blunt 40 minutes ago you're A-OK. You'd be stupid to drive given you're high and that comes down to your own sensibilities. But yeah, if you haven't had the ganja for the past 2-3 hours (afaik), there's very very very slim chance that your saliva will test positive. TBH wherever I've seen it in Sydney was south, southwest of the [bleep]ing shire. So I'm way off there. :thumbup:

Annoying I have no way of gaining resources and even trying them to begin with :|
