Are you a drinker, or a drunk?

13. Neither, but...

I wanted to add that it's possible to be a "drinker" as opposed to a "drunk" but still be an alcoholic.

My father was an alcoholic. He never let alcohol interfere with his responsibilities to provide for his family, but when he got home, he was never without the ever-present bottle(s) of beer. At the dinner table. On his chairside table next to his recliner in the living room.

Visiting other relatives who also drank. He would often be drunk.

Anyway, I used to be what's considered a "drinker" in my younger years (got drunk with friends on weekends or whatever) but now I'm older it just doesn't have any appeal for me, and I doubt I have more than two glasses of whatever alcohol per year.
