Por­tu­gal qual­i­fyed for the Rugby World Cup! (by Rui Palha)

Alco­holism is basi­cally a dis­ease of indi­vid­u­al­ism. It afflicts peo­ple who from early child­hood develop a strong sense of being psy­cho­log­i­cally alone and on their own in the world. This soli­tary out­look pre­vents them from gain­ing emo­tional release through asso­ci­a­tions with other peo­ple, but they find they can get this emo­tional release by drink­ing. So they become depen­dent on alco­hol in the way other peo­ple are depen­dent on their social rela­tion­ships with friends and relatives

It’s true as far as a lot of stuff
You could have had a lit­tle bet­ter luck
You just called and just hung it up
One of us has had enough
