So.... You quit drinking right about the time I was getting ready to go to kindergarten. Hope that doesn't make you feel old or anything. :D


On a serious note, I've watched friends struggle with it for years, and its just about ruined a couple of their lives. I'm proud that you've been able to stay sober all this time, and hope that you can stick around to celebrate it again in another 30 years.

should we be impressed? Bragging about getting laid and sleeping around is almost as cool as bragging about being sober or drunk for that matter

Um... Dunno about you, but it didn't seem like a "brag" to me. More like a STFU. I applaud Eric on his achievement.

well, however you want to put it. Congrats on his accomplishment of not drinking alcohol for 30 years, I haven't eaten liver in 30 years, can I have a cookie too?

If after eating too much liver you woke up in fountain outside a Howard Johnson's with a pant-load of **** that wasn't yours.

let the neg rep barrage begin!
:stupid:

Is it really necessary to be such a douche bag? Overcoming an addiction is something most people consider a pretty damn big accomplishment, and will remain a life long struggle for the person in question. Hell, I can’t even kick my caffeine habit, thank the FSM I’ve never had an addiction to something that can kill me or destroy my family. :think:
