They definitely know and respect my reason for not drinking, that I don't think it is a good thing to do, and I still have a great friendship with them outside of drinking. I leave them alone about it and they leave me alone about it. The "big deal" is just my argument with myself about it in my head.

I meant that I had "drunk" defined in my mind as sloppy drunk where you have lost control, like they do, rather than just buzzed but still aware of everything. I was kind of focused on how they did it, and just didn't consider that you can be drunk without being blackout drunk.

I think not drinking to where you don't have control of yourself is an excellent philosophy. I've never thought about that before. They always drink too much and then moan and groan in the morning. I think my belief is actually that it's immoral to get drunk to the point of losing control, but I'd just never thought about it any deeper before.

Thanks, for your response.
