I do enjoy drinking to a certain extent. I go out to drink from time to time to socialize, and I will admit that I really like beer, at least good ones. I've always joked that Bud Light is to Beer as Depends are to Diapers (I'm spoiled by good German Beer). Wine is hit and miss for me, Vodka is good for mixing in with stuff and experimenting, not a big fan of Whisky or Tequila (though I won't turn down a Jake & Coke), and Moonshine, I just flat out hate it. Tastes like fire and activates my gag reel.
I can certainly understand why someone wouldn't like alcohol. It is an acquired taste (I didn't like it until I spent 3 weeks in Europe), I have family members that hate alcohol, and it really doesn't matter. You can drink/like and not drink/not like whatever you want. I know there are several other popular drinks that people like that I hate. Like...

But you know what really tastes bad, Coffee.
Yep. Can't stand coffee, at least when it's plain and black. I can order drinks from Starbucks fine. Except coffee snobs will say that that's not real coffee, and that real coffee is black, bitter, gross, and...ugh. No thank you.
If I really want to have an unpopular opinion, I hate milk. I'm not sure what it is, but it just has this super gross taste to it.
But yeah. I enjoy consuming alcohol, though I'm definitely not a drinker. I know others have shared stories about family members being alcoholics and how that effects their drinking habits. I know 2 years ago, I was at a party getting completely wasted. Blackout, regain consciousness 3 hours later. When your friends tell you that they were *this close* to calling 911 for alcohol poisoning (had I been unconscious for a few more minutes, they would've), yeah. One of the most terrifying moments of my life. I couldn't even look at booze or even have a sip of beer for over 6 months. Wasn't until over a year later that I felt comfortable being buzzed, and I'm still terrified of going beyond buzzed (don't think I'll ever get fully drunk or wasted again thanks to that night) or drinking often. Sorry if I brought this thread down, just please be responsible and don't be stupid if you do decide to drink alcohol.
