Here's what I'm looking for:
[caption id="attachment_1143" align="aligncenter" width="483" caption="Technically, I'm not lying"]

Would it be wrong for me to buy a set of AA keychains off Ebay and carry them around? I'm 29 and I don't drink. That makes me a social leper to just about everyone I know. One of two things happen:
A) I'm not invited to any event because everyone assumes that just because I don't enjoy drinking, then I must have a moral problem with the concept of people drinking. (I don't)
B) I'm invited to stuff but introduced as the person who doesn't drink at which point The Church of Alcoholism sends out missionaries to explain to me that I just haven't found the right church home (drink). After turning down multiple requests to just try what I'm drinking, people secretly gather to discuss how they won't invite me to anything else because I'm no fun.
Sooooo... I propose something totally different. How about I get some AA keychains and show up to these parties, invited or not, and the minute someone asks me what I'm drinking I'll pull out my keys and tell them how I'm taking it one day at a time. That's not wrong, is it?
