Off the top of my head, here are a few excuses for obvious alcoholic Grifty's out of control drinking.
"I don't drink any more. I don't drink any less either."
"I don't drink to get drunk. I drink to get my inner demons drunk so they'll leave me alone."
"I'm no alcoholic. Alcoholics need a drink. I already have one."
"I only drink on days ending with the letter 'Y'."
"When I drink it's just to get white girl wasted."
"I'm not a day drunk. I start before dawn and don't stop."
"I'm a member of S.L.I.F. ..... Sorry Liver It's Fun!"
"I'm not a drunk or alcoholic. I'm a booze quality control technician."
"Of course I'm an alcoholic. How else could I live with myself."
"I don't drink alcohol. I drink spirits. I'm not an alcoholic. I'm a spiritual medium."
"I stopped drinking and took a look at myself. Gaddam'.... pass me the booze."
"When I can't go on a vacation, I just drink until I don't know where I am."
And the pièce de résistance for oar' little drunk.
