The buzz is your body's reaction to something you shouldn't be taking in.

And thank God for that

Idk, maybe a society should try to improve things for people so that so many don't feel the need to drink to cope (and thus a drinking culture is born and celebrated).

I tend to doubt alcoholism was a thing before the stresses of an organized, tiered society.  Maybe saved it for rare celebrations....

Fermentation is when something has turned or gone bad.

Disagree. Fermentation is utilizing the environment to transform something in a way that you want it to. Fermentation is basically food engineering. 

And it's not just alcohol... Fermentation is part of LOTS of other foods. Now, some of them you may not like (sauerkraut, kimchi, etc). But they're done intentionally, whether it's for the purpose of developing that flavor, or whether it's for preservation as fermented foods keep longer.

And while alcohol can certainly be considered to be "bad for you" for many reasons, many types of fermented foods are known to be beneficial to your gut health. They're not "turned or gone bad" and dangerous to consume. 

In fact, every time you eat leavened bread, you're taking advantage of fermentation. The bread rises BECAUSE the yeast is fermenting the starches in the flour. 

Fermentation is a good thing. 

Considering i am retired don't need the money it would take lifestyle money.

Seems the games must be relatively uninteresting today.

Again, great points if this was 873 BC.  
All leavened bread isn't fermented.  

I think I'm guilty of wanting our species to fast-forward our development/cultural evolution, which is a stupid thing to expect.

We don't.  We won't.  Let's stay the same forever.
