An Article that pretty much sums it up

I know that there is an impending to the KBB, which is in fact genius, but I have also come across this article that I too thought was genius (or at least enough to share with you guys).

"...drinking was also an excuse to devote eight consecutive hours to sitting idly around having hilarious conversations with friends, and I am still not convinced there is any better possible use of our time on earth. "

Although, I must say - most of the article is devoted to talking about how bad drinking (at an old age like mine) is for you.
