- CapeKid, on 10/12/2007, -5/+133"Alcoholism is a disease, but it's like the only disease that you can get yelled at for having. "Dammit, Otto, you're an alcoholic." "Dammit, Otto, you have lupus." One of those two doesn't sound right."

I'll continue it, but I thought I'd use a subtle variation.

alcoholism isnt a disease. it is just something alcoholics say because they usually ***** a lot of ***** up. "whoops sorry i wrecked your car while i was drunk, you can't be mad, i have a disease".
...i hate when people say that
....and now i see some people agree with me - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -9/+44You win at the internet, you can now leave and never return

Actually, a disease is an inherited (either genetically or through infection) condition that impairs the normal function of the body, mainly the immune sytem or nervous system at a cellular level. Whilst alcoholism may lead to disease, it is not infact a disease.
Many people in the medical community support alcoholism as a disease, as far as I know they are all American and they probably all get paid lots of cash for "helping" people affected by this vicious "disease".
Alcoholism is not listed by the WHO as a disease, nor is chain smoking, drinking excess coffee, taking smack, religion, gambling, masturbating, couch potatoism, gluttony, or over sleeping. All of which are other common addictions. - CaseyUCF, on 10/12/2007, -7/+36you're so leet.

Wow, sure does feel good to know you've been on the Internet longer than at least one person right?
What self gratification do you get by saying old? You'll just get dugg down, and the people that care, the people that digg this story, don't give a crap that its old. If its worth a digg it gets a digg, I know, a crazy system right?
And before you pat yourself on the back for a "job well done" getting me all riled up, don't worry, I'm not, I'm just bored. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+28http://www.duggmirror.com/offbeat_news/please_tell_me_they_weren_t_full_AA_photo/

Too bad the entire medical community disagrees with you."
Oh, snap. I didn't know it was broad-sweeping-over-generalization day! Man, I always forget this one - just like Boxing Day. - Nerys, on 10/12/2007, -2/+20WOW I never saw it before and WHO GIVES A DAMN how many times its been on the front page.
I REALLY want to try to understand why people GIVE A CRAP if its on the front page more than once ??? - PabloMac, on 10/12/2007, -7/+23On the count of "three" everyone join in.
Ready? One...two...three...
"Ninety-nine bottles of beer on the wall..." - GibZilla, on 10/12/2007, -4/+19Are you ready to perform mouth-to-mouth?
- AriaStar, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14I'm cradling one of the distant relatives right now. While he's slowly drying out from crying (yummy tears), he thanks you for your willingness.
- puntloos, on 10/12/2007, -36/+48@RaistlinMajere:
Alcoholism isn't a disease. Saying it is a disease is turning it into an excuse you use to defend your own mental weakness. With it, you can justify to yourself why you are keeping it up, or you start going into some 12-step program, where the next step is saying that only god can help you now. (welcome to shameless exploitation of people that are in a mentally fragile state!)
No. Alcoholism is something you inflict upon yourself, and while it is very true that once you have done that it is difficult to shake (even for 'strong' people), it is still something purely physical. With obesity, there are some respectable scientists who seem to say that there really is a component in there that you have no control over (so the word is out on that one), but with alcoholism, once you stop drinking, you get better.
Yeah yeah, digg me down if you must, you know it's true. - profOblivion, on 10/12/2007, -4/+16@aposter:
Well, you know what would've happened if it weren't mentioned. "ZOMG FAKE!!! THERE IN BROWN BOTTLES BUT ITS SUPPOSED 2 B GREEN LOLZ!!"
And then it's just hard feelings all around, and nobody wants that. - leighj, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13DCJoeDog "I hate alcoholics, they are so depressing."
I hate alcoholics, they drink my beer. - dasluvaluva, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13That's almost better then the actual article!
- NumberFour, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10@ lilrabbit
oversleeping is nothing like narcolepsy. Narcolepsy is when you fall asleep at random times or after certain triggers. Over sleeping is just being lazy. - Kahnza, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10The road does look wet. Just not freshly wet. And if the bottles were empty, why do all the unbroken ones still have caps on them?
- Namco, on 10/12/2007, -5/+12DCJoeDog, the metabolism thing is a cop-out. Go take up running. If you can't run, walk. If you can't walk cut all carbohydrates out of your diet and stay around 800 calories. Once you're at a running weight run every day, as much as you can, twice a day if you can. After awhile your legs will burn and your shins will feel like they're fractured. You have to run through that ***** and it'll go away in 2-3 weeks.That feeling is your body forming new capilaries to your leg muscles. Eventually you'll build a foundation of muscle and blood circulation that will help you to maintain a higher matabolism for the rest of your life. If you don't you'll end up a pudgy blob your whole life plagued with health problems who's never seen his toes, chin, or waist.
I'm just like you, except one point, I got off my ass and stopped making excuses. - aschmack, on 10/12/2007, -4/+11Alcohol Abuse!
- Rodalli, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Actually, the color of the bottle has less to do with aesthetic style and more to do with how much light the brewer wants to allow inside the bottle. It affects the chemistry of the beer.
- dasluvaluva, on 10/12/2007, -6/+11If only it were someone more deserving, like Bud Ice!
- omnithought, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8Take heart, folks. At least it wasn't Guinness!
- gonzo1773, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Ouch. Someones gonna get fired for that.
- spyd4r, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7this is as old as the internet itself.
- LeggNet, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5"This Account Has Been Suspended"
hmmmmm... bandwidth issue? :) - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -8/+12Do something meaningful and piss off! Sheesh have a laugh or two!
- uberdesigner, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6This has to be one of the oldest photos on the web.
- Halgy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4At least it wasn't whiskey. Then I might go catatonic.
And alcoholism isn't a disease; it's a disorder and an addiction just like gambling, obesity, etc. The person may be genetically predisposed to drinking a lot but, while tragic, it is not a disease. Gout is a disease. - ropers, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Ten thousand bottles of beer on the road, ten thousand bottles of beer.
Break one down, scatter it 'round, ninety-nine-hundred-ninety-nine bottles of beer.
9999 bottles of beer on the road, 9999 bottles of beer... - spazman5656, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5What a horrible picture of alcohol abuse.
- SunDestroyer, on 10/12/2007, -6/+9No accident. It was simply British tourists passing through.
- mandarin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Ah, beer. The cause of and the solution to all of life's problems.
- mobtek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2hmm favourite beer :)
- schurkenstadt, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Just Grolsch, just imagine how tragic that would be if it was beer!
- scotus, on 10/12/2007, -6/+8eh, grolsch is just another gross euro-lager with little character. it got what it deserved. and i agree, oldest internet meme to make it to digg, ever.
- deebeeb, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Well... little character ? It is been brewed since 1615....... And yes they were full.
P.s.: shipped in a BROWN bottle in the Netherlands. - UltimaNut, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3@AClayeJ
Kinda like your statements aye? - grieks, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I cry everyday at work, for the same reason.
I work at a brewery. I see cans and bottles of perfectly good beer (rejects, under fills by mere milliliters, dented cans etc) go right into the crusher. - z0l0pht, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Grolsch. Yuck. The only thing they're good for is bottling your own.
