Why do people drink/enjoy drinking?

Just saw another video of a guy puking his guts out after a long night of drinking and had this question. I don’t drink for personal/religious reasons but I feel like a lot of my friends and younger people without my same background/reasons are also avoiding alcohol more and more. I feel like this makes sense given the recent warnings from the fda and other studies showing the significant downsides to alcohol. Most people I’ve met that do drink tell me the stuff they drink doesn’t taste good and makes them feel awful— so why drink?
