Why is it called Alcoholics Anonymous when the first thing you do
is stand up and say, 'My name is Joe, and I am an alcoholic'?

Is there a free buffet and a happy hour ?

Sounds like a waste of good drinking time to me otherwise .

Also cannot fathom why any respectable workaholic would want to be enormous .

i stayed at a hotel once & in the room, there was a sign which said 'have you got a drink problem?'.
i thought what the hell, i had been overdoing the juice, so i rang it. . . .

it was the off licence around the corner Very Happy

Me thinks HuaHinR's request would be filled to brimming with alcoholics were everyone honest. Trouble is what the hell would we do all day...?

Thanks for that information HHR, if it helps even one person, then great.
If you are that one person who is thinking about making the move to AA then please don't be put off by these self righteous people, making glib comments, it is only nervous laughter.
They may need to make a big decision one day and you'll be way ahead of them by then.
Good Luck. Very Happy

"If you want to drink, that's your business. But if you want to stop drinking, that's our business." If you're enjoying your drinking, as we did for many years, great. But if it's no longer fun and is making your life worse, then it's a great place to find a solution. My suspicion is that those who go out of their way to mock, poke fun, etc. are whistling in the dark Rolling Eyes
