Had to laugh at his quacking
Friday night my ex-fiance told me he was going to quit heroin (he's primary addiction is alcohol). Then Saturday he had to work so he "had to take just enough so I could do the painting job on the apartment."
Come Sunday he tells me he was seriously considering going to a halfway house except "I don't want to give up my beer."
Then people wonder why he's my ex lol

I must inquire - what is the definition of quacking (new person here)
From context, I am guessing it is information coming out of the mouth of active alcoholic/dry drunk - could be lies, excuses, insults, or anything aimed into deceiving others.
Something like that?

Yes, Nata - that's pretty much it. Or stuff that you KNOW is pure BS - like, "Not sure how that vodka bottle ended up under my seat - someone must have broken into my car and put it there!"
Or my AW threatening to leave for the umpteenth time in the last 5 years... pure quacking

Ooohh shut the front door.
Nata hasn't seen the Quackers thread.
Grab your tissues, for laughing and crying at the same time...

and yeah, M-bob, you are right on- he's doing more than a "little" is my guess as well.
