Re: Puritanism=
On the topic of alcohol on that party, since most of the people are in the water it would seem that they're not going to go on land to throw their beer bottles away, while I generally agree drinking on the beach should be allowed, I don't agree with littering the seas with beer bottles and I think enforcing littering laws would be very hard, you cannot watch everybody all the time.

Anyway, I have more problems with the cigarettes that are everywhere on the beaches than with beer bottles, it's so annoying stepping on cigarettes with bare-feet. They should ban smoking on the beach.

I'm not a big fan of the open sea, or dirty lakes or whatever, ever since I've seen a dutch beach full of jellyfish I lost all interest to swim in the sea...Don't forget Husar, don't swim in the North-Sea

I'll drink it with lime if I just want to drink something light and don't really want to get drunk.

Concur. Corona's not bad, but it's not good either. At least a G&T has a nice bite to it.For God sake man! Have a G&T with a sliver of lime, served over ice.

I've never tasted alcohol. This might as well be a discussion on the most beautiful breed of unicorn to me.
Re: Puritanism=
Corona is devil piss mixed with mexican water.
Those who drink it are beezelbubs minions.
let me sum it up by saying that horetore and i agree. HORETORE and i agree on something. that about sums up the worlds opinion on it.
Re: Puritanism=
Personally I find it pretty rediculous that Americans are allowed to have an opinion on beer. Corona isn't really beer as it was made of corn, but it isn't thad bad. What is bad are typical 'THIS IS MY LIFE' New York types that drink it, yes these people absolutely deserve what Horetore hinted at.
Re: Puritanism=
You aren't missing much. If you want to drink something which tastes bad, makes you feel dehydrated, awful in the morning and be stupidifed for hours on end...
You might ask "Why do people drink it then?", it is because ignorance is bliss, thus they enjoy being stupidified for hours on end.

Re: Puritanism=
Depends on personal taste. I hate most beer and wine, but I like the taste of drinks like rum and whiskey. Occasionally I like to get blind drunk, but what I like more is just having a few and getting that happy buzz. There are a LOT of drinkers however who just get the cheapest horse piss they can and drown their sorrows.

There are quite a few good American beers. Regrettably, most of them are surrounded by a sea of bud, mich, pbr and other such wastes of grain and yeast.

Re: Puritanism=
Considering I think one should be able to light up a joint on the beach ( which will happen after Prop 19 passes in Nov - that's another story) , I have no probably with consuming alcohol. To solve this problem all SD has to do is assign more beach police, and enforce the littering and public drunkenness laws.
