    I stopped drinking 8 or so years ago. I was quite the heavy weekend drinker. The longer i didn’t drink the more i realised just how disgusting it actually is. Pretty sure that’s why people who never drank until they are 25 or older necer bother even starting. I started drinking when i was like 14, like most of my friends and we got used to it.

      Nah. I had my first drink at 25. In my case, I learned I hated the taste of vodka, but love the taste of whiskey… which was too strong at first.

      I liked Jack&Cokes from first try, and moved on to neat whiskey not just getting used to the taste, but as my palette was able to adjust to the harshness of it.
