But this reminds me of a guy walking into an AA meeting with a fifth of scotch and just wanting to sit and chat a while.
Nothing wrong with that. In my experience someone who is drinking is still capable of taking in the message. I am happy to sit with a drunk who wants to chat though I might take him to a different room so as not to disrupt the meeting. Who knows? Maybe he will come back and give it a try.
