Stop engaging in dialogue with Dave the Chimp.
Incidentally I think you're giving chimps are bad name - the AV is more like a screaming toddler...let it scream itself out and go to sleep, Over time, it will stop screaming.
I think sometimes we can make the fight a little less distant or a little less urgent by anthropomorphising the idea of the AV anyway.
The AV is you. The really important question is - why are you still drinking - what are you getting out of it, whatsgoingon?
