Drinking on the weekend is a necessity for some people; without alcohol there is no fun, it would be just a normal, boring Saturday or Friday night. Your mates decide it would be fun to get a straight bottle and a shot bucket that should be enough for pre drinks. Everyone knows that your friends are the worst influences especially when it involves alcohol, the usual responses are “come on bro, skoal this otherwise you’re a pussy”. 10 shots later and you’re rolling on the floor in your own vomit with your mates laughing their asses off. Great friends you have!
What are the negatives of drinking you ask? There’s a lot more to worry about than a silly hangover that will ruin your whole day.
The dreadful hangover: Well of course you’ll be getting a hangover, you are that dehydrated and your liver despises you. You’ll never learn, it has become a weekend tradition to drink as much as you can and wake up in the morning on another planet.
Your health, liver to be more specific: Your liver can cope with moderate drinking, however, if you binge every weekend you may as well accept that liver disease will be your new best friend.
Who’s bed am I in?: Another negative effect of alcohol, your memory decreases dramatically, leaving you wondering what last nights activities involved and who’s about to crawl back into bed with you.
New enemy: Don’t remember much of last night? You’ve got busted knuckles? Don’t be surprised if someone randomly swings at you because they have unfinished business to retain.
Zero $: Yeah, it’s inevitable! You drink, spend money, and then urinate it all out. What a waste of money! All week you slaved at work just to spend it on something that doesn’t have an ever-lasting effect. Saddening!
I suppose depending on the individual, it all comes down to what you’re like on the weekend; whether you are a happy party animal, a violent shit starter or just a social butterfly.
Just remember you can save a lot of money, dignity, and maintain your health by not binging every weekend to get a good time out of it. There are many other ways you can get a good time! I’ll just let you make your own mind up about that.
Happy drinking alcos!
