Who hasn’t indulged in a little liquid courage now and again, especially on a palm sweating first date. Here’s a word of advice, booze is a bummer. One drink is dandy, but anymore and things get randy. But maybe you like ‘em easy and loose. Be nice and remember to hold back her hair while she’s making left hand turns driving the porcelain bus — she’ll love you forever.

Think about the consequences. Overconsumption of booze, and boys get boisterous, aggressive, and generally man-handle anything in sight. Girls aren’t much better; they get sloshy & sloppy, roofy & raped, and generally get the short end of the stick with infectious diseases. Personally, I tend to drink under the cover of night. Mainly because my asian glow blends better with candlelight dinners and long walks on the beach.

If you’re one of those that needs a drink to help loosen the lips pre-date, post-date, or heck, during the main event there are better choices. No need to show off your oral skills with tongue twisting drink names. Simple is sweet. I never trust a boy that orders fruit flavored concoctions. I’ve said this once, and I’ll say it again, beer goes great with bread and boys. I’ve been known to order a cold one in the middle of a sake bar. If you’re worried that beer is too low-brow for your carefully crafted image, then add some class. Drink it…pinkies up.
