They say that if you can't handle it then you are weak. No it catches up with everyone at some point and ruins lives at some point. I thought I could have a couple of drinks and next thing I know I was blackout drunk again embarrassing myself with bad anxiety hangovers. I was drinking at work and cheating on my spouse. The first time I was a drinker I went to jail and detox and got in fights, passed out in public. My aunt her husband was an alcoholic and it ruined her marriage yet she still drinks which I don't get. My sister's drink too even though they know what happened to me and the chaos it causes in their life. My bil drinks so bad he doesn't work and his house is a pig sty he can't bother to clean. I am so happy I don't have the spirit in me to drink anymore. After this second time it wiped it out of me. But alcohol was the hardest to quit with immediate effects.

It seems like everyone who is against alcohol has a personal experience with severe alcoholism. Whether it’s raised by alcoholic parents or they became an alcoholic themselves. Yes, alcohol can be bad but most people don’t experience severe alcoholism and most things in moderation are not super harmful. Just because I see obese people doesn’t mean fast food doesn’t have a place in society. If you choose to drink, great more power to you; but if you choose not to drink, also great more power to you.

I drank too much when I was in my early 20s. Luckily my job took be to a dry country when I was 24. After that I lost the urge and habit. I have a beer once in a while. I feel so good being sober. Look at the joy in Vinnie's persona. He looks so happy and healthy. I am incredibly happy for him!

I remember Barney and Fred smoking in cartoon chatting.

[@sueellenwalsh1326]

I remember that too. Fred & Barney smoked Winston cigarettes.

[@rjsantics7156]

Totally agree 👍🏼 Vini, same here. I also stopped drinking for almost 1 year now.... huge positive impact on my health, mind, body, soul and most importantly, my spirit ♥️ 😊

[@Hdhdb-vl5up]

Two drinks a day is crazy. You’re basically an alcoholic

[@tankerd1847]

I turned it WAY down about six months ago and about a month ago shut it off completely. I've lost weight and I feel a lot better, physically and emotionally. I don't just feel good, but I feel good about myself. And it's great that I'm not spending my money on it. I used to feel like I needed it after a hard day, or to celebrate victories but now that I'm not drinking I realize that I don't and I'm better off without. I recommend quitting drinking to anyone. Like don't wait until you're out of control, you don't need that crap.

Im not a drinker but gov trying to be big brother and now big mother, isn't American period. The gov is no different than a foreign invader at this point.

[@Marcie_does_it]

Is it the type of alcohol we drink? Is it bingeing? Are these statistics the same for the French or Italians who smoke cigs and enjoy wine with dinner?

[@potatorigs2155]

who got a booze ad before the video starts lol ? 😆

[@williamcallahan391]

Love hearing you talk about your sobriety journey Vinny, and I appreciate it. Keep it up man

[@danielscott7985]

Maybe make marijuana legal? It's a safer drug

Never met a sad stoner unless he was out of weed or munchies

That’s funny because I listen to you guys while I’m driving in my car

No one cares about federal guidelines

[@rebeccacarter1914]

I drink very, very little and have no problems with alcohol, but I don’t feel comfortable with the government sticking its nose in yet another area. I don’t smoke. One cup of coffee per day, two on the weekends. Congratulations to these two gentlemen who are doing better in life without alcohol! I love audio books and good music, too! We need to be careful what we feed our souls! God bless!

[@dixiegaragecustoms]

AGREED!! Alcohol is poison!!

[@janetpoludniak1938]

Kudos to you guys for eliminating alcohol. I had family members due because of alcohol: 2 from cerosis, but my 30 year old nephew who was killed by a drunk driver while sitting in his own driveway.

Checked your channel out 4 times today waiting for a debate reaction. Love you guys , timing videos after events will help views come on guys 😩

[@jonnycollins0212]

Stupid topic and EVERYONE and their brother claims to be in recovery today. Who cares? Country being ripped apart limb from limb and this is whats important....sure👌

[@chrisweidner4768]

Indeed. Gave up alcohol decades ago. It’s poison. Full stop. Poison. Get your kicks naturally. All the best to everyone. Be kind. Always. Out lies and evil. Always.

[@bethyoung8646]

Not me

[@Plutus612]

One thing that comes to mind, is change the labelling standards. Put warning labels. I know it’s lacklustre on helping the people, but influence people to start walking away from alcohol before considering to take it away. We have an opiate crisis that hasn’t been resolved.

[@cavejohnson4054]

You get bullied if you don't drink

[@CHLNlikaVLN]

Change your friends or hold a decoy drink and don’t tell anyone

[@proudpatriot3491]

I drink all the time but nobody has ever bullied me into drink. Man up say no

[@C2yourself]

Handle it

[@dertythegrower]

sprite or nonalcohol heineken

[@Crinkle.Stilt.Skin.]

Please. Don’t have out with the bullies then!

[@randyrandhawa5347]

There’s something about the personality type that Vinny has that does not mix with alcohol one bit. I know a few.

[@alexolah805]

Who even still drinks lol 😂

[@30Secondzzz]

got drunk last night

[@alexolah805]

I see I made the drunks mad 😂 oh well I go to a bar 3 times a week to play pool and haven’t drank since my 21st just cause it’s every where means nothing, the fact is it’s pointless and there’s much better ways to unwind that don’t poison you in the process 😂 but have at it, seems like daddy government has something to say about it again, bring back prohibition
