@Sorrowless: In the US, I think it comes from prohibition, where things were happening, so they banned alcohol, then people raised hell and did alcohol illegally, so the government re-legalized it with the condition of being responsible with it.

@zenitix:

I drink alcohol at least 5 times a month- (once every week). Responsibly and mostly on my day off. When I got hungover at 19 in Germany and regret it, I haven't laid a finger on booze for 3 years.
