GUT2407 Posted August 22, 2015 #127 Share Posted August 22, 2015 From a lush to a drunk. I take issue with your post. I don't get drunk every night. There's at least one night I only get buzzed. :cool: Funny. And anyone who can't have 5 or 6 drinks over the course of the day without getting drunk shouldn't drink at all. And that's before adding juice coffee soda and water into the equation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUT2407 Posted August 22, 2015 #129 Share Posted August 22, 2015 I could drink a case of beer and you would think I was as sober as a judge. By the way are you a BLUE DEVILS fan? I dine with Judges pretty much every week. Bing as sober as a judge isn't much of a recommendation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes - for basketball, but I went to Florida so for football I'll have to stick with the gators! And - you're very responsible to save one night for 'only buzzed.' I've yet to conquer that feat. Did you ever notice that the some of the non-drinkers keep being so serious and the drinkers keep trying to keep it fun and light?? Tells you something, doesn't it?

GUT2407 Posted August 22, 2015 #136 Share Posted August 22, 2015 hysterical!:) But true. I was heeding out to our Annual dinner the other night and stopped to fill the car, the girl serving asked where I was going and I said a dinner with Judges and Barristers, she said "that'll be pretty tame I guess". Oh if only she knew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGinBoy Posted August 22, 2015 #139 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Hello, I'd like the anti-judgey I'm-not-a-dick drinks package please. Does that include the holier-than-thou spirits? It does? Excellent... I'll take ten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casinostreer Posted August 22, 2015 #140 Share Posted August 22, 2015 (edited) Hello, I'd like the anti-judgey I'm-not-a-dick drinks package please. Does that include the holier-than-thou spirits? It does? Excellent... I'll take ten. That is included in the package. However that package is not available on the follow ships: The Judgment of the Seas The Shaming of the Seas and especially not on The Rehab of the Seas. DISCLAIMER: These are all jokes, meant to lighten the thread. Please take them with the grain of salt with which they were intended. Or - please cruise on our new ship The Too Serious of the Seas and request the upper "look down on you" balcony cabins.

princess*bride Posted August 22, 2015 #141 Share Posted August 22, 2015 I would like to add that an appeal of cruising is there is no chance people will get behind the wheel and drive after enjoying themselves. We can really unwind to our level of preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattyG12 Posted August 22, 2015 #142 Share Posted August 22, 2015 But i am going on NCL for the first time and am very anxious, BUT we have the drink package thrown in....being D+ this still scares me.:eek: Really i am nervous. I am on a cruise and it will all be o.k.!! Right? your first "non-RCL" ... yeah, we were nervous. I want to hear about NCL. That's next up on my list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summerknight Posted August 22, 2015 #147 Share Posted August 22, 2015 My wife has 1 drink with me when we board then she usually doesnt have another drink until 4:00 or 5:00.Even being D and in a suite i still get her the package for the convenience and the fact that she is a Hugh worrier she worries about everything.So i buy the package on my cruise planner after i book.When we board its all paid off its on her card and she doesnt have to worry about what the costs are and if she should try something new or not.Do i take a loss probably but i dont care its one less thing she worries about so shes happier which in turn makes me happier. You are a wonderful husband! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGinBoy Posted August 22, 2015 #148 Share Posted August 22, 2015 EXACTLY. Even if we didn't spend the daily package amount of $55 for PP (which isn't going to happen by the way - we easily go over that each day) I don't want to spend my cruise keeping up with my bill. On our first cruise we didn't buy a package and spent each day trying to work out how much each drink was, estimate how much our invoice at the end of the cruise was etc etc. SO DULL. I'm on holiday. The booze has been prepaid. Sit back, relax and order another pina colada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valentyna Posted August 22, 2015 #149 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Amen, brother! I don't have to drive anywhere, be anywhere, pick up anyone, make anything. I'm going to relax and NOT worry about and count each drink. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capella Black Posted August 22, 2015 #150 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Eek! Lots of posts about how breaking even on a package (4-5 drinks a day) makes one a drunkard or a lush. So, the 10+ cocktails/glasses of wine I have a day while cruising... oops! Weird thing is that I don't drink more than twice a month a home, and yet onboard I never seem even tipsy (at least so I'm told by the non-drinkers) due to all the bread etc I'm eating. Obviously, my answer to the initial question is that I would always get some kind of package if I can afford it, because I love frozen cocktails.
