Alcoholics are people too. 

I’m not an alcoholic, I’m a drunk (not really), alcoholics have to go to meetings.  
 

Saw this on a T-Shirt in the city (NYC) 20 years ago.  A work buddy and I laughed our arses off, so I bought him the shirt when we saw later in a little shop.

 

He told me all these years later, he still has it.

 

As far as the story Solly, thanks for sharing.  I love reading stories like this one.  A very wise and caring young man.  Those kind of attributes should pay wonderful dividends as he grows up.

Great story but I think they ripped off the plot of a 'Boy Meets World' episode where Cory buys Shawn a nice Xmas gift due to Shawn being poor, except Shawn is too proud to accept. 

 

***correction: he gave him one of his 'best gifts' that his parents got him (a basketball). He didnt buy shnitt

Truly, a classic. And a masterpiece. The juxtaposition of Cory's privilege, and Shawn's self destructive pride gave off Scorsese vibes. If someone is going to rip off a plot, this is the one to plagiarize.
