It is true what they say: the mean drunks drink hard liquor

I'm more inclined to feel melancholy when drinking whiskey, but that could partially be the music I generally listen to when sipping whisky on the porch. Drinking any kind of alcohol has never left me feeling aggressive. Stupid, yes. Aggressive, no.

I'd be more interested in the mood data on men who properly sip whiskey versus those who shoot it down their throats. :)

I become a mean drunk driver when I drink Scotch and play GTA V.  Does that count?

Dunno, if the goal is to get drunk or drink a lot I prefer bourbon or rum. And I am a happy drunk. Matter of fact, I have taken a really hostile view of late to angry drunks and won't be around them when they are sober. We saw your true nature and it wasn't pretty.

When you start slurring your reading comprehension, it's time to cut you off.

I like how they lay blame on the drink, not the mood or predisposition of the drinker being a root cause.

I am NOT a mean Irish drunk when I drink the hard stuff, and I'll fight any of you MF'ers that say otherwise.

I think one's mood may affect the choice of alcohol, not so much the other way around.

Whenever I want my heart to grow fonder I drink absinthe.

Yeah, carts before horses and all that there.

Yeah, AFFECT / EFFECT. ✔

I'm suspecting there's a new Prohibition movement growing in the U.S.  I wonder if this "study" is part of an upcoming Temperance drive.  Apart from MADD's constant nibbling down the blood alcohol limits, there've been some fresh ads on TV pressing for "safe drinking."  If I can remember what outfit that is, I'll post it.

Lol, Canadian Club is what usually causes me to grab a machete and head to the Vespucci Pier. You on PC?

I don't often drink, but when i do, my choice is typically dark rum or bourbon. Don't give me Irish Whiskey. Every time I've had it, I wanted to fight everyone I saw.
