Please, good people of SG, stop with the deluded fantasis of betterment and start drinking again!
I was very concerned about the quietness of the pubs in Bristol last night. I know lots of peope are poor, I know the students aren't back until next week, but the excuse of "I'm giving up drinking" is crap and depressing.
Never give up! Everything in this world is killing you, so take the few pleasures you can! Cut down by all means, but a full ban on the intake of something you depended on during the festive period is niave and foolish. Anyone who utters the "I'm giving up, and this time I mean it" line during the month of January must be immediately shot.
My resolution was to keep in touch more, and also to spend one night a week as pub time. So far I've been out every night this week catching up with different groups of friends and getting pissed. I've never exceeded myself with a resolution before, it's fucking ace!
Now I want you to scrap your new year resolutions and come up with guilty pleasures that you want to do more of. None of this "I want to get thin" marlarkey, more of the "I want to eat what I want when I want" variety.
Rant ends. Go forth and accept your bad health and embrace the things you've always loved.
Sincerely
The Duke
