    May I ask how important it is to look young? Or is it just a proxy for your health?

        You can drink and not look haggard, idk what op thinks is the case, but he’s full of shit. Sunlight on your face is what makes you look old prematurely. Liquor can give you a raspy voice along with tobacco, but that is another story.

            I just for the first time gained weight. I got injured, and gained 20 pounds from my target weight, but 27 from my weight this time the last two years. This has never happened before, I am currently in the process of losing it. Still skinny, but I’m going to turn it into muscle.

            But I am still drinking here and there, mostly homebrew stuff, but some ipa and whiskey or gin here and there, or pbr when it’s hot. And I still look youthful-ish for my age.

            I drank about 12 7% ipa’s a day all 2024. If that’s alot.

        the horrid farts you crop dust on your enemies. as their souls depart from this earthly realm, so to does your soul ascend to greater heights of depravity.

      Look good feel good. Drinking to excess ages you. Most of my coworkers are in one stage or another of alcoholism, two of em have died. It always ends sad too and at least a little pathetic.
