That's because most have the same metabolic effects of alcohol while not giving the hangover or general stupor when drunk in large amounts due to their having high fructose-corn-syrup contents.
Anyway. I have innumerable reasons for not drinking alcohol. For one I don't believe a police officer should ever take drugs recreationally.
The "drug" concept is rather arbitrary, there's no fundamental reason to call beer and wine a drug and Roquefort Cheese not.
I personally would not use that concept as a "step" in a logical argument, when the concept itself is shaky (and thus could unsettle an argument and the attendant conclusion)

Aren't you bored of seeing all your friends having a good time on the strip? You say you can have fun without alcohol but when everyone around you is drunk is it not just weird and awkward?
Don't you grow tiresome of the people achieving hedonism by simply engorging in the delicious elixir that is alcohol.
Have you ever let yourself loose and tried it? Being drunk can be really fun if moderated and you can still have a great healthy lifestyle.

that's fair enough, but that's just for you, that doesn't mean it applies for other people
For most people I think my point stands, I can only see a couple of situations where it might not be so bad, the worst thing is when you have to look after them because they're throwing up
You're such a troll. Why did I have the impression from the other time we discussed this that you were studying physics at university? Are you studying it at uni but not at degree level despite your "magnificent a-levels"? What's going on here. Why was I so mislead?
And I've told you, these website articles you link are not very good proof of anything and the scientific studies they link within themselves (even if they do, which they often don't) are not very good either. I explained in the other thread why that was the case, but you seem to misunderstand statistics quite a bit.
To answer your question - it isn't healthy; my grand-father abused it and it put me right off; I don't like the idea of not being 100% me, because I'm awesome; it is too expensive compared to water/milk; I don't succumb to peer pressure at all and dislike most of the environment which are usually why people want to drink anyway.
you're not suddenly a different person if you drink alcohol. Still the same person lol.

Not a troll, I'm just curious as to why people don't drink and spoil the fun

Poor excuse, I don't like the taste of vodka but if you mix it with something it tastes ok and gets you drunk quickly and cheaply
Tbh when I become the ripe old age you are I'll probably stop drinking alcohol completely
Poor excuse? Erm... Why would I drink something I don't enjoy when I can have a perfectly good night without alcohol?

Roquefort cheese is definitely a drug. That **** is like crack.
Have you been to a club before? The prices get freaking extortionate! I don't think my wallet could take it.
Yeah quite a lot, it depends what night you go. Student nights and week days are very cheap for example. Last time I got a double vodka and coke for £2.50
