I'm in the process of doing the above and would like to hear about your experience. Were there any surprises? What was as you expected?

I’m mostly referring to liquor because it’s the most economical way to get drunk.

Why not bathtub moonshine? That is even more economical.

Hey man, if you have more money than sense that's your problem. You don't have to go around replying to everything I post trying to explain why you like getting ripped off.

The profit margins for the alcohol you buy at bars is significantly higher than alcohol you buy in stores. You're getting ripped off, and in typical useful idiot fashion, you need to figure out some way to avoid acknowledging it.

Did you reply to the wrong comment or something? This doesn't make any sense.

If you don't want to understand something, then you won't understand it.

I don't expect more from you.
