It’s Vic here, popping on just before my daughter’s school show to give you my top responses for when someone asks why you’re not drinking.

Now, you don’t have to explain yourself to anyone, your sobriety is yours alone, but every now and then some overly curious (or just plain annoying) person will give you a nudge and demand an answer.

So here are ten solid, funny, and totally valid responses to shut down the interrogation, change the subject, or make them laugh so hard they forget they asked.

Happy Saturday, y’all.
