I can't see a single positive point by being sober. It makes you live longer- I don't want that. It makes you experience life longer- I don't want that. Since my cat died, I have nothing left to live for (ooh, poor me!! Haha- seriously, I loved her sooo much and without her I'm lost). On a serious note, I have no dependants, I have no major responsibilities, I'm tired of everything and at least by drinking I don't have to commit myself to yet another ridiculous scheme that won't benefit me in the slightest.
It is so much easier to just drink and not give a f*ck.
