I've used that argument myself, to point out how a friends' argument is baseless.
I've got hopes, now. That argument has worked on my friends, who admittedly, didn't have the 'alcoholic' issue, but may still have some effect on Faye. The argument's just as stupid, regardless of whose mouth it comes from...
TheEvilDog:
And Faye has just realised that the mark she leaves on this world will, like all man made ventures, crumble into dust.
Unfortunately, she still hasn't realised that the most important mark is actually who she interacts with. Yeah, she doesn't work at CoD anymore, but she has her friendships which have grown and developed there.
brasca:
Maybe Bubbles is going to open up a little bit about her past. It might keep Faye distracted long enough to not drink.
BenRG:
As I suspected, this is mostly about Faye beating herself up over her mistakes; some genuine and some which exist only in her low self-esteem psyche. She does make mistakes, of course, because she's human and humans tend to do that (irritating as that is). However, she's eventually going to have to learn that the best way to handle this is to try to change yourself rather than seek oblivion for a few hours and then carry right on doing it.
I'm pretty sure that trying to explain her thinking process to Bubbles is going to rip the blinders off for Faye and she's simply not going to be able to face getting drunk simply because she can't explain her feelings to her friend without sounding like an idiot. I'm still betting that this arc will end with her in tears and Bubbles hugging her.
From Jeph's notes on this comic, it appears that he thinks of Bubbles speaking in a firm, stentorian voice that makes profanity sound vaguely ridiculous. I'm glad that I'm not the only one whose mental voice for her is like that! :-D
Nycticoraci:
I couldn't help but read bubbles' last line in James Earl Jones's voice.
