A happy heart is synonymous to a good long life... and I am always very happy after a drink... and now, in the process if the worms are happy too, then what more can I ask for...:)

for all the alcohol lovers there...

for a change all women should get drunk, hang out with friends, flirt with all men they see, come home late, should leave all the kids to the men, let men do all the hhouse work, miss all our duties & responsibilities as a family, die young & make another life or many miserable & leave them in the dark for ever through out their lives. so that all those desperate alcoholic lovers would really understand what pain they cause to others.

too bad future comes after the present if not we can show some idiots what damage it causes to the beautiful lives of human.

always remember past cannot be changed at any cost, memories cannot be erased, certain moments cannot be re-lived. so don't blame others once or even be jealous after you have missed your chance to live a good life :)

Too many idiots around hence all those alcohol fueled criminal offences committed around the world daily! And having lost two beloved family members to alcoholism related deaths I can now no longer see any good in these substances. But of course that's IMO, and others will deffo feel contradictory.

Its harm will only surpass the benefits if the drinker is an idiot. And, of course, they need to be protected!

There is no denying alcohol has it's benefits but it is still forbidden for us Muslims only because the harm it's wont to cause can very well surpass it's good.

However for social drinkers, or those who occasionally indulge in alcoholic beverages, this news will bring them joy!
