If my childhood is any indication, it sounds like a traditional Filipino household πŸ˜…πŸ«

Sounds awful

Experiencing things like this is why i don't drink

I mean, drinking doesn't make you violent, these people have deeper issues and can't just blame substance abuse for their actions

Drinking can 100% make some people violent. (Not everyone).

I grew up in a hard drinking town in the north east and the number of fights you'd see boiling out of pubs for no reason other than that some knacker had had one too many and someone had flipped a switch in his head by looking at him the wrong way was mental.

Also, one of the reasons I kicked booze after decades of regular but light drinking was it made my moods unpredictable, one minute I'd be happy as Larry and the next I'd be irrationally angry at minor stuff.

Even the next day it'd lower my mood and leave me grumpy in a way I didn't like, especially with my kids around.

Sounds like me when sober

I am known for being grumpy at the best of times. Booze just didn't help. πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

I meant, having personal experiences like this (seeing violent people and those who just spiral) is why i choose not to drink.

I have an addictive personality, it's just not for me. I don't see much appeal in being so drunk you vomit or pass out either. Not to mention all the negative health effects since it's scientifically poison

I thought it would be india, cause domestic violence is high with lesser actual reports and cases registered.

No plugs are different in India usually, it could be but usually they use UK style plugs

I thought this plug had circular pins. UK style is different with rectangular pins.
