Neither of us are fond of the “non-light” individuals and once we start drinking there’s no holding back. Plus, why would we drive 30 min to pay to get into a bar when we can sit our old asses at home and drink. +rep. Put my ass in front of the fire on my patio and get drunk enough to have to crawl into the house with no fucks given. ---
