On the one hand, I'm a big fan of Ambrose Bierce. On the other hand, I'm a notorious critic of certain concepts popular in AA circles, including but not limited to the "dry drunk" concept. So, when that line popped into my head one day, I never forgot it. I put it in my signature because it strikes me as quite humorous. But comedy is a picky thing, and what one person finds funny another person may not.
EDIT: My username is also a Bierce reference.
