Why is it that people who hate the taste of alcohol try to conform to today's societal norms by making so called "girlie" drinks? Pisses me off.

I was at this bonfire/party last night, and the most prominent form of alcohol being consumed was drinks mixed so you can't even taste the alcohol or feel the burn while they're going down. Pshh...throw me a cream soda instead of that shit.

By the way, cream soda is the best damn carbonated beverage ever. PERIOD.

Oh, they were also taking shots of tequila or rum while bitching about the burn. Lame. And there was no beer! Saddened I was, but It was ok. Instead I sat happily with my Crown Royal, sipping and savoring the flavor instead. Although it would've been nice if there was some bourbon instead, It has a better flavor in regard to me.

I really don't have a problem with mixed drinks, but it seems stupid and pointless to make them taste like they don't have alcohol in them.

I'd much rather drink vodka straight than in orange/tomato/cranberry juice. I should have been Russian.

I also don't understand why people drive drunk. Irresponsible pricks.

In short, I hate people.

And even though I think they're being dumbasses for drinking something they don't like (alcohol), I somehow accept it.

Any thoughts?
