Just a question. Why do people like alcohol so much? It's rather bitter, dizzying etc etc. So what do you think?

I have an extremely weird palette. I'm 12, yet I like bitter things like red wine (which isn't bitter if you let it breathe) and beer, i like onion on my burgers, and I like stuff that most kids would hate. ;D

The flavor is very intricate in some cases. Lol, I'm a connoisseur in all things edible

as far as I know children are very sensitive to bitter tasted because poison is bitter. (Which is why kids don;t like there vegetables). I have drank wine since a young age like they do in France and stuff so I have grown up with a good palette and a respect for alcohol (which unfortuneatley doesn't stop me getting smashed at parties)

I like bitter things. They have an infectious quality to them. My palette is precocious

You think everything is funny when you are high.

LOOOL

Yeah, like me, i act equal if i was drunk. Sometimes when i got drunk, it makes me just a little bit more party animal xD

Anyway, when i was younger i hated beer. It was like "damn, how can people get drunk with this sh!t?". With the passing of the years, beer it's a must to parties, and i use it to start preparing my stomach for the incoming vodkas, safaris, absinthes and whatever the party has

Absynthe, really? I have never had it in larger quantities but it is weird stuff. Nice flavour though.

Everyone gets drunk in different ways and get different traits. The happy drunk, th touchy drunk etc. Some may laugh some may cry we're all different. And some, obviously not me, fall asleep which is very funny at parties.
