I know a lot of people who will come home and have a beer or a glass of wine to unwind after their day. That is not unhealthy, and some studies actually say it can be a positive thing. However if you come home and drink a bottle of wine or a whole six pack that is usually a sign there is a problem. Drinking that much on a regular basis is usually because someone is avoiding something.

I don't see it that way.  People who live alone are entitled to have a glass of wine or a drink after work without inviting the neighbors. :)

People that drink along have a greater chance of having a roofie slipped in their drink. No one to cover your six, or watch your drink when you go to the bathroom or dance!  Be careful!

It's not 'unhealthy' to enjoy an alcoholic beverage .. What is "unhealthy' is to drink to excess, on a regular basis...and even more so if you are trying to hide it.

I see it as neither strange nor unhealthy. Some people don't even have a choice.

I didn't know that.

Even such a simple skill requires practice to acquire an appropriate palate memory.
