When you learn something, that thing owns part of you forever. Knowledge breeds obligation. If you CAN do a thing, perhaps you SHOULD do it. And sometimes you MUST do it, if you hope to live with yourself afterwards.

We do Dry Week for this reason. It begins today at 12pm and ends next Friday at 12pm. During Dry Week, all willing Magnificent Bastards abstain completely from alcohol.
