[quote=Chewbaccus]The official stance of AA is that (paraphrasing) members are "powerless over alcohol, and none but a higher power may restore them". [quote]
I am powerless over my bills, and nothing but money may restore me.
I've seen one of these meetings. A guy who claimed he couldn't talk in front of friends had no problem getting up in front of twenty strangers and saying "Hi, I'm Jack, and I'm an Alcoholic."
I don't believe in Alcoholics Anonymous.
I ain't anonymous.
And everyone knows I drink.
And I ain't an alcoholic.
I'm a drunk.
Alcoholics go to the meetings.
