I’m going to be 18 reasonably soon and have never drunk before. Whats a good alcoholic drink with low alcohol content? I don’t want to get wasted on my birthday! Is it still possible to philosophise under the influence of alcohol?
Seeing as you’re from australia I recommend a Victoria Bitter, the real taste of australia! 
I’m amazed you’ve never drunk before but that doesn’t really matter. Beer is good to drink because it has a large volume/alcohol ratio so it’s less easy to drink in excess as opposed to spirits and mixers etc.
About philosophising when drunk, may i refer you to the film “The Life of David Gale”. There is a superb scene in it where the protagonist played by Kevin Spacey wanders out of a pub completely drunk and starts ranting about Socrates to all the passers by that he meets! Brilliant scene!
And of course, the legendary philosophers song by Monty Python
Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable.
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table.
David Hume could out-consume
Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, [some versions have ‘Schopenhauer and Hegel’]
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel.
There’s nothing Nietzche couldn’t teach ya
'Bout the raising of the wrist.
Socrates, himself, was permanently pissed.
John Stuart Mill, of his own free will,
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.
Plato, they say, could stick it away–
Half a crate of whisky every day.
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle.
Hobbes was fond of his dram,
And René Descartes was a drunken fart.
‘I drink, therefore I am.’
Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed,
A lovely little thinker,
But a bugger when he’s pissed.
Have a good one!

I’d just like to note that HVD phoned me last night, completely pissed off his tits and shouted down the receiver “IIIII LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE PHILOSOSPHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE”
it was a turning point in my life.

Hey now, I wasn’t completely pissed. I could still recite the alphabet bacwards, and proceeded to do so, many, many times; and very, very loudly.
Does pissed mean plastered in the U.K.?
Man, means something quite different but not totally unrelated here in the states.
Word Raf. Pissed means plastered, i’ve listened to enough Pink Floyd to know.
