Bill Burr - Becoming A Connoisseur Drunk

[@BillBurrUniversity]

Have you guys ever tried to quit alcohol? How did it go? 👇

[@jenandjuice_]

I quit for 2 months during quarantine.. drank again Father’s Day we had a bbq but I’m gonna quit until end of the year again. The hangovers were killing me

[@jenandjuice_]

Sonny good luck!

[@ZGGordan]

a lot of times, different results, eventually replaced it with weed phah

After I turned 25-ish I preferred drinking alone but it does become a problem fast if you lack self control like me

Same amigo, just gotta find that balance. A medication called campral changed by life in regards to boozing for the better.

Balance with an addictive substance is an oxymoron

[@dowhatiwantc7637]

@@jt7980 it’s possible it’s more funny when you hear rich coke heads who spend 5 grand a month and don’t think they have a problem. Lol but legit money and addictions is way easier and better looking then the homeless crackhead

[@seankelly378]

​@@jt7980no it's not. Most people can control it

[@jt7980]

@@seankelly378 If you have to control it, i would argue its not a balance. Most people have a balanced relationship with drinking water, they drink when they are thirsty and then forget about it. If you actively have to control your water intake, are you really in balance?

[@alphagenisis1]

Bill, you are speaking a lot of wisdom here and I’m here for all of it.

[@afrocoolio25]

I did this for about 2 years, and I had to stop this last January. I was a connoisseur drunk as well, and all of my friends were. Our usual scotch, bourbon, Irish whiskey, etc, tastings would turn into drinking half a bottle of each. It wouldn't be uncommon that in one night, any one of us would down 10+ shots and maybe a few beers. But, it was always justifiable because we were extending our palate. It sounds fucked up now, but I lived that for years and the last 2 years became way out of control, and the pandemic made it way worse. Thankfully, this last January I had a moment of clarity that said I should give it up.

[@terryoconnor5262]

I’m not the only person who read this who wishes you well I’m sure; live long and prosper my friend 🙏👍

[@bofetada6841]

Thanks for your honesty

[@cafenightster4548]

Lol, same boat. The only difference was how expensive the liquor got. Downed half a bottle of $90 whiskey because I'm tasting and expanding as a connoisseur. Noo, that means your an alcoholic, hiding something and enjoying too much.

[@sonny9493]

You know when i drink alone i prefer to be myself.

[@BB-re6nz]

“Our childhoods don’t exist anymore.” That’s powerful. So many parents rationalize and justify their behavior cause they’re parents did it. Like no one ever thought that hitting their child (abuse) cause they aren’t doing what they want them to do was a “form” of discipline. They just had abusive parents and are doing the same abuse.

[@The_Chimera]

As someone who has a verbally abusive parent, this is spot on. Over time I understood why they said and did what they did, but it doesn't at all justify continuing the cycle.

There are definitely pros to normalizing drinking with your kids. After my parents, I was definitely not impressed with my friends, so i didn't try to hard to do it.

[@shusterandy]

That's for damn sure. I drank with my parents when I just got old enough. And when I used to go to parties and my peers would drink too fast and just get shit faced, I would just casually enjoy my drink and have a good time.

[@thedoopa3169]

[@GeneralGuitFiddle]

This is a wake up call (one of many) to get off the sauce, but I gotta say his point about retrospect. If I got really square, never would have gotten out of my comfort zone, had a long term relationship, worked where I worked etc. If I had stayed square, at some point in 2020 I would have offed myself for getting fired re: refusing the clot shot and having nothing to show for it. Life is a wild ride, but yeah lay off the sauce kids, in most situations moderation, self-denial or self control will do wonders.

[@MarleyKeithPlumb]

The only problem with drinking alone is the fear of aspirating on your own vomit...other than that its bliss.

My dad too. Heard my father was a hard-core alcoholic. He drank liquor/beer and would chase it with cough syrup sometimes. He went to counseling/therapy after I was born. He had a small relapse, but hasn't drank in 26 yrs.

Why is frank and Kevin talking about drinking 😂

[@willyjaybobindy3402]

We tell ourselves we love the flavor and the characteristics of the drink, whatever it is… But really we all like that buzz, don’t we? I discovered this when a nice double pour of 100+ proof had absolutely zero effect on me. So I drank more of it. Not because I liked it necessarily… But because I was trying to get back to that buzz. To be fair, I still enjoy whiskey a lot and consider myself a bit of a snob, but I have backed way off and hope to continue to do so until I’m only taking a few sips every now and again, not on the nightly by myself in my home den.

[@AD-im5to]

I used to drink two a night, and before that, it was almost a full wine bottle. I enjoyed it but it’s not worth it. Now I occasionally drink during the week, and I don’t miss the heavy drinking. I enjoy one and that’s good for me.

[@Storm_VII]

I disagree that if you stop drinking before your kid is aware that you wont pass it on to them. The well-known science of epigenetics shows that if an addictive gene is activated in the parent its more likely the trait will be passed on. (Not guaranteed, but more likely).

Its a give and take. Hell yeah they lived fast and hard up to the 1980's, but most died by their early 70's. When I was a kid in the 70's people were f'ing older than shit at 70 and most looked like walking corpses by 60-65. The very rare 80+ year old you simply stared aat in wonder knowing that MF'er was around during WWI. Most people no longer drink a bottle of cheap gin every night after smoking three packs of Lucky's while eating a slab of overcooked steak with au gratin potatoes.
