Bottoms up.... up and away

Go hang yourself. It's quick and easy.
Cost of liquor for 10 years :
Lemma 1 : Cost of one bottle of hard drink remains constant for the next 10 years(Irrespective of inflation, that is).
Lemma 2 : 2 bottles per week.
Cost per bottle : Rs. 120
After 10 years(That is, 10 years prior to death) :
Rs.1,24,800(In words : One lakh twenty four thousand eight hundred only).
Now let's get to the other side of the equation:
Cost of acquiring ropes : Rs. 100
Cost of 'nothing else' : Rs.2
Total cost : Rs.102.
Yes. The second one is cheaper, better and works faster.
I have a feeling that non teetotalers are DUMB.
There are two types of drinkers :
1) Tyro : One who drinks because he is with a group of drunkards.
2) Expert : Who forces a tyro saying "Child thara adbeda. C'mon, have a sip".
Both must be shot in the hair. The former for being stupid and fickle minded and the latter... you know why.
I really feel sorry when a person takes his/her first sip just because of the continuous taunting/ridiculing/mocking by the hoi-polloi. I stand witness to 3 such victims. Next time they are among one such group, they don't think twice. Once done is done, they say. Result : Bottoms up. When someone does this to me, "Know thy limits", I say to myself. It works.
Why did I have to post this? Hmmm... Well, last week I had been to a resort from my company $$$. I was walking down a corridor when I saw a very cute child(about 8 years young) sitting opposite a restroom/washroom all alone, staring at something. "Hello, Gooooood morning", I wished her. There was no response. Ah! One more taciturn child, I thought. She had fixed her eye on something to her right . I followed her gaze to find a mug of beer convinently placed next to her on the other side. I was struck with shock. The mug was half full and the girl was left there to look after the smelling substance. I mean, an 8 year child next to a beer mug!? What the.... What is this world coming to? Some demented, weirdo father it must be, I thought.
Two minutes later, the head of my department at $$$ walked out smiling :( Now whenever I see him, I am reminded of the poor little innocent girl. Shame on such people.
If you are one of those types who drinks just for kicks, give it up or get into a rehab. Else, spend Rs.102.
