Explaining alcohol use

BarryNL · October 2nd, 2007, 07:11 PM

I was just looking through the medical statements on the GUE registration forms and they want an explanation if you've ever drunk alcohol. Are these guys serious?

I'm afraid I'm with the Czech's on this one

Heh, agreed. There's computer systems out there now that only got written because of some good lunchtime pub sessions.

What kind of explanation? That could be fun. I would make up something like "When my girlfriend left me for my sister, I hit the bottle pretty hard..." or "When I realized that my member was much larger than average, I celebrated with hookers and booze."
