If only it was that easy. We come from what they call Generation Y, which among some good qualities, we are also known as the binge drinkers. Different sites have different age groups for this generation but the majority says its the eighties babies.
On Health culture society they have put up the video by ‘LMFAO’. The song is titled ‘Shots’ and features vocals from rapper Lil’ Jon. The video shows LMFAO and Lil’ Jon pouring shots while at a pool party. They then go on to say: "This artefact demonstrates how prevalent binge drinking is in society and how the epidemic is fuelled by generation Y. Binge drinking, or deliberate drinking to intoxication is most common among young people, and is associated with an increased risk of chronic disease, injury and premature mortality."
Yoh, and all we want is to have a good time. Suze Original, Buttnutt and myself decided to stay in and have a couple drinks at home the one night, let's call it "three-man night", but after a bottle of champagne, a bottle of caramel vodka, bottle of potency, a cane train punch and some other things lying around, we decided the best idea in the whole world was to walk to the pub up the road and have a couple more. Logic tells us we should have stopped at home, said goodnight and gone to bed, but we weren't done having fun.
Tell you what, it was one hellofa fun party and I have no regrets (except that I didn't get enough of those delicious chips at the pub). Should we have stayed at home that night, probably. Would we have missed out on more fun, of course.
Yes, you should stay at home when you drunk, but if you not home, you might as well have a fun night and get a taxi home when you done having a good time. Else you going to miss out on dancing on speakers, eating amazing burgers at 2 in the morning, watching the sunrise, meeting new people and laughing till your cheeks hurt. Let's just try doing the drinking in moderation.
