I’m a recovering alcoholic with close to 30 years sobriety now … and the idea of drinking excessive amounts of any liquid will always be funny to me now … or to want to drink liquids like some sort of ritual.
If you drink 6 litres of beer in a day in front of others and get blind drunk … you’re a party animal
If you drink 6 litres of water in a day in front of people … you’re a weirdo
Or you can sit at a dark dingy bar and sip on scotch or whisky for hours on an afternoon and it’s normal
But if you sit in a dark dingy bar and sip on a glass of orange juice for hours on an afternoon … people think there’s something wrong with you.

I knew a guy that drank so much carrot juice his hands were yellow/orange. He was weird
His wife was probably having an affair
I knew a guy that drank so much hard liquor his liver turned into a prune and he died
Arnold never could kick his Seaweedies habit I guess.
Nah, I think that’s just a writer. Or some sort of Avant Garde artist
