Agreed, it's got to be the hangovers. Being drunk is fun enough, but not if it means your next 1-2 days is ruined. People were shown another way by the shutdown of bars, combined with the proliferation of cannabis as a (mostly) hangover-free alternative.

Being drunk is fun enough? having had to deal with an OD'ing colleague, passing out, getting cold and blue, having to call the ER... After that I restricted my intake to only very few small drinks.
I've never thought it fun to get that drunk, but 4 or 5 beers is fun in the moment. I hate what it does to me a few hours later though, so I no longer drink like that.
