What is Drunkorexia?

The Morning Show’s Mike and Juliet totally have their fingers on the pulse of young America as evidenced by their latest buzzworthy topic, “Drunkorexia.”

Drunkorexia (also known as “drunk-arexia”; take your pick) is the name of a media-approved epidemic that describes the daily behavior of every well-adjusted girl in college that doesn’t still shop at the Disney Store for XL sweatshirts sporting Pluto and Goofy. Thirty percent of women between the ages of 18 -23 curb their daily food intake in order to drink their meals.

Tastes great, less filling.

Sometimes college-aged girls drink instead of eating a proper meal. Jaded parents don’t want to hear that, although they’ve done the same deed as post-college adults. They see a full-blown “disasterpiece” (a masterpiece of disaster) like Amy Winehouse and think, oh my Lord…is my daughter involved in hard drugs and partying too much in college? Is she in danger of dying?

Unless your daughter is a filthy rich coke-headed slut that you disowned before the age of 15 (or has pictures featured in this article), there’s nothing to worry about.

Beer is a staple of my diet, as is getting wasted. It’s a package deal. Like any 20-something who isn’t mentally paralyzed from “the evils of drinking” according to years of anti-drug campaigns, I get wasted. Every morning after a hangover-inducing bender I promise my body and soul I will never do it again…then I do it again. Hops are the tops, as they say (no they don’t).
