------------------------------------

"Drinking just to get drunk,
is like having sex just to get pregnant."

It wasn't so much the "irresponsibility" of it that I was commenting on, but 
just simply the wasted experience.

Technically, the "purpose" of sex is procreation, and likewise it can be 
argued that the purpose of drinking alcoholic beverages is to get drunk. 
However, if you simply engage in either of these practices simply in order to 
get to this technical "end-result", then you are missing out on the wonders of 
the experience.

It's not the destination, its the journey. And just as in the case of both sex 
and drinking, the journey is often best when you never reach the destination.
