Well no, he’s saying “I’m failing my midterm” which means he could fix it by studying. If he fails it’s on him, he should use it as motivation to do better, not ignore it by drinking. I’m saying this because I do this a lot (with weed, I don’t drink) and it has ruined my life in so many ways. If he want to fuck up his life, responding to failure with degeneracy is the best way to do it.
Then, I concede some of my point. I was a bit of a dick, if you need to blow off steam you deserve it. I honestly made that bc I’ve been struggling to even study (I have really bad procrastination) and I don’t wanna see people fail like I have. If I can prevent even one other person from becoming a POS failure like me, then at least my failing meant something.
