Nothing. Not to mention that heavy drinking is a stupid thing to do anyways.
Oh the self-righteousness. I guess that explains why you have not been ashamed.

And yep this poll is pretty weird. "Have you ever felt a basic human emotion"? I have been ashamed of tons of stuff, and it is good that way. The right kind of shame (or threat thereof) can bring the best out of people.
 
I'm ashamed I didn't really know ashamed is kind of a recursive definition:
unwilling or restrained because of fear of shame, ridicule, or disapproval: They were ashamed to show their work.

I thought ashamed meant solely the feeling of shame/embarassment. But it also means the restraint/reluctance to do something/fear that you will feel ashamed, I guess.
 
This beats the poll I saw on another forum today "Have you ever felt like a human being?"
 
Oh the self-righteousness. I guess that explains why you have not been ashamed.

Self-righteousness (also called sanctimoniousness, sententiousness, a holier-than-thou attitudes[1]) is a feeling of (usually) smug moral superiority[2] derived from a sense that one's beliefs, actions, or affiliations are of greater virtue than those of the average person.

So, this may just be me, but I can't find anything in my post saying that I'm better than drunkards.

Nope, just a grab-asstic piece of amphibian [excretion].

It is just you. You equated heavy drinking with being stupid. Stupid strongly implies inferiority. Equalizing someone who may for whatever reasons and however frequently heavily drink with a drunkard it is another box of problems of itself, but seems illustratory of your self-righteousness. And did you really need to drag a dictionary definition into this? It is rather impossible hard - no make that impossible - to grasp the true scope of vocabulary when it comes to feelings.

You have such a poor understanding of human psychology that it is laughable.

2/10 would not bang.
 
My postcount. I can never get it to go up.

(The above two sentences relate to two entirely separate shames that I have)
 
Yes. Needless to say, I could have had a bit more tact when I attended a Women's Literature class in college back when I was reckless and wild. Still got an A- out of it! Teacher called me a Dark Horse.
