Things were sure different when I was growing up. I was always told too much of something else would make you go blind. LOL

That’s almost as dangerous as “drinking” vodka through your ass. We have livers for a reason.

Then they had us up against the wall
Hey it’s only blood grain alcohol
And there ain’t no cause for alarm
We ain’t out to do nobody no harm
How could anyone be so unkind
To arrest a man for drivin’ while blind

Her picture is in the article. I would have to be blind in at least one eye to hit that, and drunker than a fart.

Oh no, that's a girl?!? I had to check twice but I thought it was a random photo.

Many years ago straight vodka was my drink of choice and I drank like a fish in those days. But I can say that even then the idea of putting it into my eye never occurred to me.
