I have friends that drink that say thinks like "wow, I tripped and fell and hit my head...and I was sober...lol can you believe that?!" What they mean is I was not drunk
at the time, so yeah I see where you're coming from I think FT. I don't have an aversion to the word sober. When I use it, I just mean I don't drink. I mainly say "I don't drink", obviously, but I'm not gonna freak and have a Linda Blair moment if I use the word sober. Words don't bother me alot...it interests me to see why people choose the words they do, but I'm not very PC at all. By PC, I mean in
any circle, as each group has it's own stance. Sometimes I think semantics definitely get in front of whatever ideas people may be trying to meaningly conversate about. When people have a strong aversion to a word, then the flow of ideas can be blocked or stopped. That's too bad.
Like the word "meeting" for example...click...LOL nuff said
