Getting Drunk in the Afternoon
I am in favor of this. Let me count the reasons.
1) Getting drunk.
2) The number of days you don't have anything else to do during the daytime is exactly equal to the number of times you can drink in the evenings because you don't have something important the next day. Scientific fact.
3) If you drink early enough in the afternoon, you can get falling-down drunk by 5, sober up in the evening, and drink your water or orange juice as you feel the need for it. If you drink at night you are either going to drink too much water before you go to bed and feel sick from it, or not drink enough and wake up parched. Then you can go to bed well-nourished and sober and on top of the world.
4) If you are drunk by 5, then you are in a good position to watch prime-time TV which is definitely improved by being sloshed. As always I recommend Dr. Phil. If TV does not appeal to you, there are lots of other things to do at 5 PM e.g. play football. Conversely, the entertainment options at 1 AM are basically limited to watching people throw up.
5) If you are awake at 2 AM then you are probably also going to be sleepy. If you are also drunk you are likely to get into fights or crying fits or whatever anti-social behavior is most like you. People do not shine when they are sleepy. However, people are usually at their most wide awake at 4 PM and you will definitely be bright-eyed and in a position to impress your fellow boozers then.
The only argument against drinking in the afternoon I can see is that it makes you look like an alcoholic. People will assume that if you drink in the afternoon, it is the precursor to more drinking in the evening etc. If you explain your (my) reasoning to your friends, and don't care what strangers think though, I don't see why this should bother you.
