I've got two interesting ones on the same subject

1: Is court-mandated attendance of Alcoholics Anonymous unconstitutional?
2: Constitutionality aside, what are your general thoughts on Alcoholics Anonymous and its methods?

I'll let a few of you guys post before I say my bit on it. You can probably guess which way I lean on this. *sips everclear from a toy teacup*

So are you basically asking if AA is just goofy Christian nonsense? I've seen the same Stanhope specials you have, bitch.

I've also been to AA before I even heard of Stanhope.

A topic that falls under the second question is whether or not mutual aid is an effective way to curb alcoholicism.

Well in that case, let's impose a draft and lock up the gays since we have the death penalty.

Are there not already? My friends wife told me how a McDonalds in the UK used to give her really ****ed up schedules to where she would go home and sleep for an hour or two then have to get up and go back to work and she said it was highly illegal out there.

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.
