    I did 3 bourbon sours before she got there, because this is honest to god the first time I ever went on a date with someone I hasn't felt up before. We each did a flight. I was pretty drunk at this point, and ordered is each another flight. She watched me drink both, because I sure as fuck wasn't letting it go to waste. We're having Sushi next Tuesday, and I think she's going to let me hit it.

    95% of the people I know (that aren't really old) drink at least socially.

    60% does seem very high. That's a shit ton of people. Hard to believe. It seems like every Saturday night every single person ages 16 and up is drinking. But that just might be me. Way more than 60%.

    And yeah paging Howell and aic. 10 drinks a day is absurd.

    10 Drinks a day is crazy talk. I drink... more than the average human... and I don't drink 10 drinks a day.

    Holy shit that article says if the top 10% of drinkers curbed down their drinking into the top 20% and bought less alcohol, ethanol sales would fall by 60%. That's fucking insane.

    If you went out 3 nights per week 70 drinks per day is pretty easy it get to.

    Three nights a week, 15 per night, which to me is still high. That's 45. Then 25 over your other 4, 6/ night. I suppose, but like I said... 15 over those three nights out has you hammered three nights a week. I don't care who you are.

    Just based on the average though, again, 10 drinks per night every single night is crazy, not to mention a problem.

    15 mixed drinks? I mean I like to think I drink a lot when I do and can for my size but if I drank 15 whiskey gingers in a night I would probably have alcohol poisoning. I'm talking 15 double whiskey drinks.


    Now, 15 is reasonable if you go out at like 8 pm

    Easily put down 200 drinks a week in college.

    They're redefining drink as a single serving.

    23 drinks a night, 3 nights a week, every week, and all while out at the bar? Are you permanently standing in line during this time?

    Beyond the idea of how much alcohol that is for anything other than Miller 64, how does one get prompt enough service to receive 23 drinks in a night. Bartenders have rules about over-serving people. Whether it's the guy drinking fast and re-ordering or the guy slurring his words, neither are getting served.

    I can see drinking that much beer in a night. That's easy. But that average is 4 and a half fifths of liquor a week. That's a lot.

    College glory days most people are at their peak. I doubt most beyond the age of 25 could fall under the "70 drinks in a week is pretty easy to get to" no matter how much they could reach back in their college days.

    The ones that can make a day of it, and likely have a lot of free time and no job to wake up for. That's a drinking problem.

    Yeah that's a little different. Usually better drink specials when we have socials at certain bars so it's cheaper so more drinks for recently
