Chinese proverb is not Proverbs. That blue ice getting to yo brain?

To the contrary, I am enjoying life very much, just without alcohol. Life is better that way. :winkwink:

Take a trip through Bordeaux and buy up the stuff they don’t send to the dupes in far away countries. That will fix your craving for wine because everything else taste like swill. California, Oregon and Washington Wine is bullshit and so is everything from Australia and many other countries. Some dude in Germany took me on a tour of the wine offerings there, and even that was bunk compared to Bordeaux.

you obviously didn´t read the good things wine or at least a glass of wine daily can do for the body & brain... :upsidedow

we drink a lot of cava here, and only a few years ago, found out, cava is the original champagne. It´s made the same traditional way as Champagne, unlike prosecco from Italy, the bubbles come from the fermentation in the bottle, where as prosecco comes from the bubbles being forced in each bottle like a soda stream.

Anyway, Champagne, the district in France, liked the cava from Spain & simply copyrighted the name to their area, hence why Champagne only comes from the area of France.

Cava´s like 3 quid a bottle & taste just as nice, infact some tastes better...

& of course, we get plenty of Rioja here too :thumbsup

To me it wouldn't matter...since I hate the taste of alcohol in general. :Oh crap

The positive things mentioned are a lot of MAY do this or MAY do that, but on the negative side it says there is an increased risk of cancer, the only question is by how much. So to me it makes as much sense to drink alcohol as to smoke, its just asking for trouble.

I think it comes down to luck.

There was a dude I knew in the 2010's who was a health freak, vegetarian, drank carrot juice, never smoke, never drank, had some super high paid job doing blueprints or something. I'm not 100% sure. He was ripped and did this "peak to peak" hike of Vancouver's north shore mountains that I couldn't even do HALF of which is something like a 50 kilometer mountain trail in like 14 hours or something... multiple times a year! Also played soccer and was basically a goody-two shoes. I only knew him because he was the brother of a bar chick I was friends with.

He got some weird cancer, not sure which, and went from being 100% healthy to dead in 6 months. Absolutely ridiculous luck of the draw. Fucking so sad. Meanwhile his sister was a drunk even worse than me and snorted any line put in front of her. She's still alive as far as I know. RIP Buddy.

Was probably teh Covid’s.

Jesus fucking Christ people next time you get any virus you need to put a half dropper of oil of oregano under your tongue twice a day. Going to get a bunch of vaccines and drugs and spending time in the hospital with a ventilator on. Bunch of fucking drama queens. Bahhaaa ma covid!!!

everything they say is good and bad for you is the may do this and may do that...


i lost my mum to cancer and she didn´t smoke or drink, apart from good times, christmas and vacations...

my partners uncle died from a heart attack in his 40´s, no drinking or smoke, pretty much ever...

others i know drink & smoke 40 a day live until they´re 90...

so what gives :2 cents:

Yes, you can do everything "right" and end up dead within a month. But we can increase or decrease the probability of a long and healthy life, at least. If I do my best and it still won't be enough, at least I will know I did what I could, some things I can control and some I can't.
