short and sweet
I really want to go to a bar but I'm too scared to go alone. (also what if it gets shot up?! This is America after all.) That means I have to either drink beer(ew) or something alone like an alcoholic or just go. But I'm also not shilling $50 on an uber at 2am. Conclusion is alcoholic.
"why is gen z not drinking anymore" we are. just alone in our rooms. grocery store liquor is cheap.
