Also, could you supply us with a picture?

I just had someone comment on one of my decks saying they made an account JUST to upvote my stuff. And now he's making the deck himself.
I love this community. <3

Don't think of it as getting a carrot.
Think of it as not getting hit by a stick.

Lololololol
I'm just holding out for 21. Tobacco doesn't really interest me and I already hit 16 (thank goodness)

The day I turn 21, I'm gonna have some scotch. I want to experience the liquid magic :P

Honestly, alcohol was way more fun for me when it was still illegal. Part of that was because the atmosphere was different; it was part of the college party experience going out, getting trashed, and avoiding cops on the way back to some girl's dorm. Part of it was also that the alcohol was never my responsibility.
Even when I turned 21, I was still drinking with friends who were 20 or 19, so we were still holding room parties.
Now that everyone's 21, we're typically going to the bar if anything, which means dealing with huge crowds of annoying people, expensive booze, and shitty music.
Of course, I can just drink in the comfort of my own home. But that much hasn't changed. It's just that I now get to personally pick my liquor.
Pretty sure I'm up to three bottles of scotch and a few bottles of various other whiskeys.

Mmmmmm.... scotch.
Yeah, it's still scotch thirty. I should fix this empty glass next to me.

lol you should see my dad's liquor cabinet. He likes to buy in bulk when it's on sale, we've got at least two bottles of Dewars, one Laphroaig, and we miiiight have some Macellan but I'm not sure.

I don't really miss the shitty college beer and RAs knocking on the door, the rest holds true though.

My family doesnt drink alcohal. I can't even spell it. My mom drank a bit after her mom died, though.
May 25, 2015 9:41 p.m.
fluffybunnypants says... #23
Mmmmmm.... Laphroaig. Can't really go wrong with Macallan either.
May 25, 2015 9:42 p.m.
Epochalyptik says... #24
The last time I had Macallan, it was a Macallan 12 at a J.B. Dawsons and some cougar at the bar was eying me. Incidentally, I was waiting for my best friend/FWB, who was so late that I was half drunk when she finally arrived.
Alcohol and fun times are closely connected in my life.
May 25, 2015 9:44 p.m.
Room parties? Pleb. Gotta go build a bonfire in the quad and say "fuck it"
May 25, 2015 9:45 p.m.
Epochalyptik says... #26
@fluffybunnypants: The RAs never bothered me. The shit beer was another story, though. Too many nights with Keystone, Natty, and Bud (which tastes like distilled wood, by the way).
I always liked mixed drinks better for getting drunk because I could down a bunch and not hate myself.
@kyuuri117: If only. Campus police were very acutely attuned to the sound of criminal scum vandalizing school property.
Spent quite a few nights going for walks with cigars and whisky, though.

It's a tradition in our house that somebody always buys my dad Laphroaig for his birthday.

fluffybunnypants says... #28
It was really only mostly my Sophomore year. The rest of the time they all knew me pretty well. Having to appear before the housing counsel still counts as no fun.
I can usually count on a bottle of Macallan or a bottle of Laphroaig on my birthday. No complaints whatsoever.

Haha yea we never got to have a bonfire on the quad either. We WERE right next woods owned by the state, so we could hike a mile in, get off school property, and have a bonfire right next to the water on a lake. Set up a spit with some sticks over it and roast hams, brautwursts, etc. while drinking. Was awesome.

The last bonfire i attended resulted in my getting high and walking into the fire

...you don't have campus police? I thought that was a requirement.

And with that I'm going to bed. Good night y'all.

kyuuri117, campus police have been proven to be far more detrimental than any good here, like arresting massive amounts of students who weren't violent or aggressive at all, and in general spurring up riots so that they CAN arrest them.
May 25, 2015 9:54 p.m.
fluffybunnypants says... #37
My campus police were actually the town's police that had a separate station on campus. I passed them on patrol many times whilst meandering drunkenly across the quad, though I was never stopped.

You're one of those people who would stand in the fire back when I used to play WoW, weren't you?

@Femme_Fatale, is there a campus within two hours of where you live? If so, become part of the campus police. XD

Epochalyptik says... #40
My university actually has its own police force, but they don't do much. They're mostly there for obligatory patrols, riot control, amnesty escorts, and checkpointing for egregiously drunk or belligerent frat bros. Oh, and enforcing parking regulations. Because having a Parking Services department isn't enough.

Indeed. I also accidently hit someone with a mortar at 4th of july. Massivew burns for everyone!
May 25, 2015 9:59 p.m.
Epochalyptik says... #43
Mortars are a lot of fun. According to YouTube (and you, now), they're also a massive source of pain for drunk people.
Roman candle dueling is also hilarious.

NoviceMagician, the campus size of UBC is that of equivalent to a town. It's massive and it takes about an hour to walk from the north part to the southern part of the campus.
May 25, 2015 10:02 p.m.
I've been way too close to mortars too many times..I'm referring to the military grade mortars that have a 50m kill radius and not something from a local firework shop
May 25, 2015 10:06 p.m.
Beer tastes pretty good honestly, but my older brother hates the stuff. I've always hated wines though...
And once when I was really young I drank like 2 or 3 wine glasses of raspberry beer thinking it was juice. I even got a bit tipsy.
