I am weary

So Burton hits me with "I hear you drink like a fish. Supposedly you were
slamming them back last night." When I asked where he garnered such
information he told me "From our friend on 28." I promptly sent the
following message "Nice...so do you inform everyone you come in contact with
that I drink like a fish?" Result, no response to me but he called Burton to
lambast him for ratting him out. And the eternal question remains, if no
longer interested why care so much?
