Oh wait, we do have a prohibition in this country right now. It's real popular too and just about as successful as the first time around.
Oh, we've tied that from 1916-1924. didn't work too well.

It can't. Sorry to say it, as it doesn't reflect too brilliantly on myself, either, but alcohol doesn't change people, it removes inhibition. In other words: it can bring facets of our personalities to the surface that we normally suppress.
