Did you want to grow up to be just like your father?

@SW-User Some people shouldn't drink. Not because what it does to the human body, but what it does to common sense. Some people who ingest liquor at a party or gathering get silly or mean, and then they wonder why former friends are friends no longer.

I went to a class gathering. One person I hadn't seen since first grade had a little too much to drink, stood up and told everybody within hearing distance of an accident I had in that first grade. I heard the details, too - and everybody who heard him just roared. I was so humiliated, I wanted to die on the spot. That was over six decades ago. Jesus on the road on Easter morning!

When I got home, I called the classmate who had organized the get-together and told him I would not go to future such meetings and why. He was angry, but we both realized it was alcohol that fueled that unnecessary story.

@MaryJanine I would agree with you. I'm sorry that happened to you and I don't blame you one bit.

@SW-User Thanks for your support. The co-ordinator investigated after I called him and discovered this idiot mouth did have a problem with liquor. But that is no excuse. The point is, he SAID it. I have seen too many drinkers who make fools out of themselves and other people with them, and then they don't remember later. This is why I say some people shouldn't drink at ALL.

@MaryJanine You're welcome :)
