When I was 3 years old our car was hit by a motorcycle. My brother and I couldn't stop crying as we were confused and afraid. The motorcycle and its rider were underneath our car at first. He managed to get out from underneath the car, but he was very ashamed and apologetic. My parents said that he was drunk. He had smashed the corner of our car beyond recognition. We collected insurance information and were on our way, but the experience never left our memories. Later in life my brother and I never drove drunk.
It's also pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up that you can be arrested for "driving drunk" when you've had only one or two beers at a restaurant. Drunk driving is just another tool the police use to take your money and give it to the state for minor offenses like "speeding", when in reality you can go twice the speed limit and be perfectly fine as long as you have a post-1990s car. This stupid ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ idea has been propogandized by the government and even stigmatized like smoking cigarettes are, when in reality smoking cigarettes kills many orders of magnitude more people every year than driving drunk has in history. Yet the punishment for drunk driving is so much worse than the crime, you lose your license for at least 1 year and you can spend time in jail, both of which totally ♥♥♥♥ your job prospects. And to ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ top it off, driving while tired is totally legal (and almost as fun), yet it's way more dangerous than driving drunk because you pass out and have zero control . That might be fine on the highway when you just coast into the median but passing out can seriously ♥♥♥♥ you up in most situations.
Then I joined the FPARMA unit so I could play some Arma 3, and I was forced to install their modpack including this DUI. The name of this UI mod was so shocking and destructive that I immediately fell into heavy alcoholism. I even showed up to operations drunk when I was platoon lead and spent four hours I don't remember slowly driving the entire platoon around the perimeter of Tanoa's main island with the assistance of three sober assistants helping me keep the floor under my feet and not hitting my head. My wife left me, my kids are ashamed of me, my dog doesn't recognize me anymore and growls when I stagger home with another bottle of cheap bourbon, and my doctor won't even return my calls to discuss getting me into rehab. The only reason I haven't been arrested for drunk driving is because my car was repo'd and the liquor store is close enough that I can get home before I black out.
I want to keep playing Arma but I cannot play if I am constantly encouraged to drink to excess. I demand mandatory alcoholism PSA pop-ups while using this mod so I can milsim safely in the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, amen
