Definitely no... I really don't like the taste of alcohol.

I drink it because it's the social thing to do, when out with friends.

I grew up in a bar (family business) and as I got older, I found that if you're hanging out with a group of people, and they're all drunk, and you're not.... they feel very uncomfortable around you. Like you're going to judge them, or remember every dumb thing they do and they won't. You know?

However, if you have a drink in your hand, then it helps allow people to relax more around you. You are then "included" into the group.
