I found out just now that I'm a "teetotaler" or one who abstains completely from alcohol. I also found this nifty image to remind me about the perils of imbibing the booze. Pretty much a spot on play-by-play of what happens when you drink alcohol. The steps are a bit hard to read, so I transcribed them below.step 1
a glass with a friend
step 2
a glass to keep the cold out
step 3
a glass too much
step 4
drunk and riotus
step 5
the summit attained
jolly companions
a confirmed drunkard
step 6
poverty and disease
step 7
forsaken by friends
step 8
desperation and crime
step 9
death by suicide

You just found out you're a teetotaler? Who broke the news? And if you find this artwork to be "pretty much a spot on play-by-play of what happens when you drink alcohol," I'd argue that you're also a Victorian priest. Then again, I'm sure Mapes has a similar chart to illustrate the dangers of sugar, except "death by suicide" is probably, like, step three.
oh brother
