When I was a kid we all drank Becker beer which was brewed in Ogden, Utah. At 3.2% you really had to pour a ton of it to get the buzz. At age 19 I stopped drinking for about 90 days. Then to my surprise I met a few boys from Utah in Copenhagen who didn’t mind tipping their Carlsberg Light which was also 3.2%. They convinced me it was OK.

Then I found myself with a Danish kid as a partner. He introduced me to Tuborg. I died and went to heaven.

Now it is three Vodka Martini’s before dinner. No wine, no beer.

Alcohol is the cause and solution of all problems.

IIRC, takes a body about 2 hours to process a serving of C2H5OH. Spread 'em out over a nice long evening and you might approach "legal limit"; heck, you might not even notice appreciable effects.

men drinking 5 or more alcoholic drinks within a short period of time

Amatuers. I drank that much on the short drive over to see my in-laws.

Sounds like the basis for the new “Liberal Nanny State” drinking game!

It sounds like somebody at the CDC got paid to write up a paper on something I knew about nearly 50 years.

THEY don’t want you to drink.
THEY want you to go to work at your government job.
Go home right after.
Pay your 90% taxes from your taxpayer funded paycheck.
Go to bed. Repeat.

Bars, restaurants, fun, etc.....
not part of the program.
