I personally despise alcohol and have many reasons to hate it.

Most of you couldn't understand how much alcohol has effected my life to a point of hate. I will never drink. People think I don't mean that, but really, I'd rather not shut down my brain.

No one who has personal contact as family or good friends is allowed to drink around me and they respect it and understand.

I don't have to tell anyone why I hate it. It's really none of your business, so please don't ask. There are some specific people on here that I would tell if they asked but unless you suspect your one of them, don't.
I don't personally think alcohol has any similarity to military, cigarettes, or any other reasons involving the age 18. It's a completely different subject but I do understand your reasoning. I just can't stand what alcohol does, and I don't want it to ever exist in my life again.
