- i don't think any of us can say anything about doing something stupid drunk, we've all done it. -- nm - Andie Jul 2, 09:57 6

  - Exactly. Most lessons are learned by doing stupid shit, not by having a bunch of people 10-20 years older than you tell you how to be safe -- nm - con_carne Jul 2, 09:59 2
    - What separates humans from other animals is that we don't have to make every mistake *ourselves* in order to learn. We have collective learning. -- nm - loosilu Jul 2, 10:04
    - True, but some lessons learned by doing stupid shit are irreversible. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 2, 10:01
  - of course, and then hopefully we learn. -- nm - loosilu Jul 2, 09:58
i'm thinking you shouldn't carry a credit card at all. have one, yes. carry it, no. - Andie Jul 2, 09:55 8
- another reason why i only use cash... -- nm - Hotkiss Jul 2, 09:56 7
  - but that's backwards. you carry your tuition in cash, and lose it, it's GONE. - Andie Jul 2, 09:56 6
    - it's not like she's carrying her tuition money with her out to a bar... -- nm - znufrii Jul 2, 09:57 3
      - but on the other hand, I once had someone leave an envelope with $1200 in cash stuffed inside on the counter at Starbucks... - znufrii Jul 2, 09:59
      - of course not. but she's saying 'she feels safer with cash' is silly. -- nm - Andie Jul 2, 09:58 1
        
        (my point, i would never carry cash i couldn't afford to lose. credit cards are wonderful for security, if you are able to notice it if you've lost i -- nm - Andie Jul 2, 09:59
    - yes, very risky to carry large amounts. -- nm - loosilu Jul 2, 09:57 1
      - I rarely carry more than $60 on me in cash. There's no way I'd spend more than that on a regular day. If I am, that's bad. - Hotkiss Jul 2, 09:59
OH! OH! Where's my soapbox? I've got something to say about being drunk! -- nm - Mop Jul 2, 09:54 4

if you are losing your money and cards, you can't handle drinking that much. -- nm - loosilu Jul 2, 09:54
nbot if you're always in the habit of putting it back in your wallet. - znufrii Jul 2, 09:53 2
- yep, I was never too drunk to do that. -- nm - loosilu Jul 2, 09:54
