    Umm… invite the dude, they don’t need to drink to be social. And it’s the invite that counts in most cases, makes them feel included, just assuming makes you the asshole.

      Muslims and alcohol are like Hindus and beef. For context, at a work potluck with our hospitalist staff, which was primarily people from the India/ South East one of the doctors asked about one of dishes that had beef, and then said, ‘yeah but this may be from cows that weren’t holy, sometimes you have to try them to tell’ he then tried some of the dish(I feel like it was a beefy chilli cheese dip) and then said ‘oh no, these cows weren’t the holy kind’ and then he got a big scoop of it on his plate.

      Everyone got a good laugh.

        Like my Muslim friends who try the bacon, just to not be rude, but don’t tell wife. Then wife comes and does same with same excuse and says don’t tell my husband, lol.
