Let's think before we drink

I did visualize on aspects while watching a debate on TV, the topic there being ‘Have the youth been drinking excessively?’

We also had a poll on this topic in PressMart.
The poll results: Yes-74% No-5% Can't say-21%

But the question here is when people decide it’s enough for the day. The following could be signs:

1. Calling for support when you’re neck deep though your stomach can always float.
2. Start admiring an empty glass when nothing can turn you on.
3. When you start saying legs instead of pegs, you need to switch off.
4. When you hear the bouncers tell you to bend, instead of end.

Below are a few situations that today’s people might experience:

#1 You really wouldn’t want to drink and drive. But what are the options. A few could be:
a)Shell out a few bucks for your Chauffeur to take you home. Well, all’s well that ends well.
b)Some can avoid drinks altogether, you can consider the option of being content with the snacks served along with the drinks.
c)One way could be to just walk home; however avoid walking home all alone. You could land up in wrong place at the wrong time or you may even call it a night midway.

#2 An Invitation warmly extended. Given below are few ways of bringing people to such Parties:
a) There is a party in our apartment Sagar* and we’re serving drinks. This according to Sagar* is a typical way of inviting people to an Party in the city of Delhi.
b) You’ve done great; you need to celebrate with a bottle of Champagne. Wonder if this is the only thing on the Party menu.
c) Or maybe use the Kingfisher motto in your invitation. Let’s ‘Live life King size’.

While you have the right to make choices, the bottom line here is if you want more power you need to be responsible.
