Been drinking it for about 15 years, after I found out that it's not the alcohol that I like, it's the taste and just the act of drinking. What you stated may be true for you, but I don't mind n/a beer.

I probably am not an alcoholic except by the strictest of definitions. I just decided I didn't like the hangovers. So maybe what you say is more true for true alcoholics who crave the feeling of being drunk.

For me, it's not even friends. I swear, random people just ask. I honestly don't mind telling people why I don't drink, I have nothing to hide.. but it does get tiring.

We cruise a lot on Carnival, and drinking seems to be part of the environment, so it's probably that. I'm too old to bother with bars and clubs unless on vacation. Lol

Ok will give that a try, thanks! We cruise a lot and I always get the "bottomless bubbles" which is unlimited soda and juice. I get my money's worth with cranberry/grapefruit/pineapple-- equal parts. Tastes great AND the cranberry is pretty good for me. :)

A teenage boy is getting ready to take his girlfriend to the prom. First he goes to rent a tux, but there’s a long tux line at the shop and it takes forever.

Next, he has to get some flowers, so he heads over to the florist and there’s a huge flower line there. He waits forever but eventually gets the flowers.

Then he heads out to rent a limo. Unfortunately, there’s a large limo line at the rental office, but he’s patient and gets the job done.

Finally, the day of the prom comes. The two are dancing happily and his girlfriend is having a great time. When the song is over, she asks him to get her some punch, so he heads over to the punch table and there’s no punchline.
