| Lahdee | posted 6-Jun-2003 10:42am I stopped having birthday "parties" after about 8, except one at 13 & one at 18--my strict step mom hosted those... no booze. When joalis and I turned 21, our step mom and dad took us out and had drinks and dinner. |

| Enheduanna | posted 6-Jun-2003 12:45pm I haven't really had a birthday party since I was little. My sophomore year of college we had a mini party which just involved cake and cards, and there was whiskey at that one. So 19, if that counts. And we had a couple of house parties which nominally included my birthday, a few years ago; if you count those, then I guess I was about 25. |
| Frostbrand | posted 6-Jun-2003 2:18pm Once when I was little my Mom mixed a little champagne with my orange juice. That was the foirst and last time alcholol touched these lips, cause I spit it out immediately. Now I have a No Smoking, No Drinking sign on my bedroom door. |
| dora | posted 6-Jun-2003 2:53pm The first time I guess it was when I turned 10.A bottle of sweet wine was served along with coke,orange juice and other kids' beverages. |
| dora | (reply to Frostbrand) posted 6-Jun-2003 2:55pm Well as long as you don't have a "no fudging" sign on your bed... |
| Dino | posted 6-Jun-2003 4:08pm 13 - but it was not an official birthday party that my parents were aware of. I looked older than my age and me and my mates pooled our money and I was sent into the off-licence to buy some wine. |
| Iseult | posted 6-Jun-2003 5:00pm Well, it always has been, but for the 'elders'. |
| Maarten | posted 6-Jun-2003 5:19pm I think I was 16 or 17, which is pretty normal here. |
| juliw | posted 6-Jun-2003 7:55pm Beer was available for the adults at even my childhood parties. I didn't drink at my parties until I was a teenager. |
| ROCKMAN | posted 6-Jun-2003 8:12pm 9-14 I didnt get seved any butthere wre growen-ups drinking there, I did manage to steal a few tho. |
| mishaboo | posted 6-Jun-2003 9:16pm last year, my 22nd birthday - you've never seen so much alc.! :) |
| Richard47 | posted 6-Jun-2003 9:33pm I am always too drunk to know how old I really am. or How old were you when your birthday was first served at your alcohol party? |
| Richard47 | (reply to Frostbrand) posted 6-Jun-2003 9:35pm Judging by how you spell, champagne isn't very far from your lips now. |
| darkshadowsseeker | posted 7-Jun-2003 1:02am I don't drink, never have and there never was alcohol in the house when I was being raised by my grandparents. |
| Richard47 | (reply to anonymous) posted 7-Jun-2003 1:10am Oh Really? |
| Richard47 | posted 7-Jun-2003 2:56am You nameless people lighten up. God, it's only a joke. Those are just typo's. This is MY humor. Get use to it! |
| Richard47 | (reply to dora) posted 7-Jun-2003 2:59am Sweet wine and Coke, Good combo! Forget about the orange juice and other kids beverages. |
| Biggles | posted 7-Jun-2003 7:37am I haven't had a birthday party since I was 6. I usually have a birthday meal with my family, and often my parents and brothers will have some wine or something to go with it. But I don't drink. |
| ROCKMAN | posted 7-Jun-2003 9:05am I'm throughing myself a birthday party the 14th of June, I'll supply the 5 kegs of beer and some of my moonshine spiked punch, if the people coming over want hard liquor they have to BYOB, and beer if they don't like keg beer. Right now I think I have about 100 or so people coming that I know of, its going to be one hell of a good time |
| dora | (reply to Richard47) posted 7-Jun-2003 1:11pm I understood it it was your humor,but sorry is not funny. |
| Zang | posted 7-Jun-2003 6:38pm I'm not sure. I don't recall having a birthday party when I was 19 and therefore legal. I have a picture of me at a family birthday party when I turned 20. There isn't any alcohol in the picture, but that doesn't mean there wasn't any. I do remember having beer at my 21st. It was a family dinner in an Indian restaurant. I knew the owner, and he gave me one on the house. So either 20 or 21. I'm sure that I didn't have birthday parties when I was in my late teens and my parents would certainly not have served me liquor prior to that. |
| dora | (reply to Zang) posted 7-Jun-2003 7:02pm I hope! liquor sounds a bit heavy---but beer or wine maybe? |
| Zang | (reply to dora) posted 9-Jun-2003 3:16pm Liquor is one of those confusing English words that can mean a specific class of things or a more general class of of things. Sort of like "classical music". Sometimes this confusion is allayed by prefixing "hard" in front of liquor. |
| dora | (reply to Zang) posted 9-Jun-2003 3:20pm When I think liquor I think spirits or liqueuers...you know stuff that is over 20%... |
| jasonmreece | posted 9-Jun-2003 4:04pm It was my 21st birthday and my best friend (who is a month older than me) threw me a huge bash with lots of booze....I got so drunk that I didn't want to drink again for several months. |
| Zang | (reply to dora) posted 9-Jun-2003 6:27pm That would be the more specific use of the word. I've seen it used (rarely) to describe consumable liquids that have no alcohol at all; the juices of a roast or a piece of fruit...I suspect the word originally was synonymous with "liquid". Geoffrey Chaucer opens his Canterbury Tales with: "Whan that Aprill with his shoures sote The droughte of Marche hath perced to the rote, And bathed every veyne in swich licour..." ...now that might be poetic license, but... |
| Matt | posted 9-Jun-2003 11:32pm I was under 9. Alcohol was served at my first birthday party, at my baptism too. |
| sonikJ | posted 10-Jun-2003 6:15am I was eighteen. |
| Richard47 | (reply to dora) posted 10-Jun-2003 10:04am Nothing I say is meant to be funny (to everyone). Dora, sorry IS funny. It it really is! (The sauce?) |
| mandy | (reply to Matt) posted 18-Jun-2003 9:29pm damn boi, that explains alot! *kisses you all over* |
