I remember watching the X-files sometimes in the noughties and Mulder came up with a deduction; "it must've been two men...nobody drinks two six-packs alone" and I just cracked up.

12-pack was like a medium for the night, 24 a heavier. Plus bars usually. (Finn here.)

I just don't feel like a real man if I don't have my 125 daily lagers. I would surmise astronauts are the same. Maybe that's why nothing gets done up there,... they're being rationed !

Also, alcoholics are real. My dad used to go through a 24 a day just to maintain. The liquor on top of that was to actually feel intoxicated.

Yup. It is indeed. I just wanted to add info.

Sometimes I seem sodas in 0.355 cans, mostly red bull. Somewhat uncommon size here imo, and I'm just wondering where theyre used. 0.355 seems like a US size, but the bottles I got from Germany were mostly 0.33l aa well. Although the cans were like 0.6l

Just wondering how prevalent and mismatched the standards are

Alcoholic cerebellar degeneration is caused by chronic consumption.
If you aren't alcoholic already, and unless you have some very specific condition, the body will start getting rid of alcohol way quicker than you will be consuming it, through any means necessary.
Drinking a lot is still dangerous, but mostly due to drunken behaviour.
You're indeed right that drugs should be consumed responsibly, and alcohol is poison, but it's also not that dangerous, unless it's an addiction.

20 beers

There's no volume stated here... is 1 beer a pint, 0.5 liters,, small bottle/can of .33 liters, 2 liter bottle.

If it's the the small bottle it's not that much

37! my girlfriend sucked 37 dicks!

NASA, with the tampons.

You'd think that but due to reduced gravity in LOE it takes more beer to feel like a man. You can calculate the number of beers required by taking the number of beers at sea level times the distance from sea level in kilometers.

Procurement for business/government/military (including and especially NASA), is very different than what you would see on a shelf at your local drug store.

The drug store can't buy a single box of tampons. They have to get an entire case of boxes of tampons. If each box is say, 20 tampons, and there's more than 5 of those per case, then they're buying at least 100 tampons so they can get a single box of them.

There's a lot of alternatives they could have looked into, like neighboring government institutions which may already stock them, asking them to supply a smaller quantity than they would have needed to order, or ordering outside of their typical channels and sending the intern down the road to buy a box from the nearest pharmacy... Those things wouldn't really get accounted for in their budgeting though... So they would prefer to order through their normal distribution.

It's a funny comment to make to Ride, "is 100 enough?" And I'm sure everyone had a good chuckle.

Regardless they probably didn't see another good option for ordering other than to just buy a case of them and figure out the rest later.

This shit is getting upvoted while I'm getting downvoted? Tell this to any medical professional and they will look at you the same way I look at flat earthers. Alcohol metabolism is capped, while your ability to consume it isn't nearly as capped as your body's ability to deal with it. That "by any means necessary" makes it far worse. Those who know, will know.

Another side note - tolerance /= faster metabolism.

Chug on few vodkas per hour and report back to me about your myth (or should I say, forward your autopsy report to me?)

Instructions unclear, your girlfriend now has (37! - 37) dicks remaining to suck.
