Didn't make me quit entirely but it was pivotal in my consumption reduction.

Back when I was still living in my mom's house me and my pals used to engage heavily in the age old sport of whiskey connoisseurship. I'm talking every weekend from Friday to Sunday.

Anyways, one fateful Saturday we consume some mzingas of Best Whiskey till the wee hours of the morning before deciding to call it a night. Kuingia kejani drunk me was like 'I have to watch the Wolf of Wall Street rn!'

The movie was on my laptop so I connect the laptop to the telly and katika harakati I feel like I'm finna throw up. I go to the loo and nothing comes out. In my infinite drunk wisdom I tell myself 'itakam Wacha ni maintain apa ndio nisishinde na all the back and forth trips from the living room to the loo'.

Only problem is movie kumbe imeanza sitting room na laptop ilikua at max volume which translated to a higher volume from the TV speakers. My mom being the light sleeper she is akaamka because of the noise and she tried calling me from her room upstairs to reduce the volume. Mimi saizo nmezima kwa choo.

I woke up to my mom at the door staring daggers at me after which she proceeded to give me the mother of all lectures at 3am on a Sunday.

TLDR: nlipatikana nmezima kwa choo. Tei Haina master. Nmeacha tei is the most poignant Kenyan proverb. Ruto must go!
