I literally gave you the name for it, just put it on PubMed

And I've seen people like that in parties. Several times in my life, it resulted with ER visit. Said people are younger than me and already look drunk even when sober, while others who enjoy the occosional beer after work are fine their entire lives.

Did not realize how much lemmy defends alcohol, and I'm from East Europe where I've seen more than you'll ever read online.

Burn the heretic!

you keep responding but i'm taking it seriously

Yes, but you won't be okay with the two hour treadmill sessions after drinking 100 beers.

Generally most consider a "beer" 355ml (12oz us) give or take.

I don't care why people "downvoted" your post before the edit but I did it because of the edit.

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.)

0.33 in Nordics. Then also 0.4, common bar serving, and 0.5l can and full pint, 0.568l cans.

But "a beer" in the Nordics would generally be 0.33 from a can and 0.4l from a tap

Edgy. I like it.

This isn't about "defending" anything. Alcohol is a dangerous substance. And most people here know that.

That said your level of fear mongering is extreme to say the least. You sound like someone telling everyone not to go within 1km of an ankle deep pond because they'll drown.

While possible in both cases to get permanent brain damage or drown. It is extremely unlikely on a winning a large lotto level.

Almost all people will pass out or start throwing up, long before they get near that level. Especially if they are not already an alcoholic with huge tolerance.

Source: 20 year hard core binge drinking alcoholic (20-30 drinks a day or more). That has been in the hospital 6 times for withdraw myself. And in rehab multiple times with large groups of other extreme alcoholics...

Edit: I strongly suspect most (if not all) those you thought had that condition were actually under the influence. Daily drinking alcoholics are extremely good at both hiding it ( oh I have to go to the bathroom) and lying about. They will tell you straight to your face they haven't had a drink in weeks after you just caught them drinking a beer.

Which is why I said give or take

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

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.

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.

Yeah tbh, most people didn't finish their beers, so only drank like 80% of a can they were everywhere, and usually people bum one or two.

And unless we were at some festival, people wouldn't have time to destroy 24 + bar drinks.

But cruise ships? Three days of innumerable drinks of all sorts.

I kinda miss that though. The adventure and friends, not drinking that much.

12 oz "US"

the body will start getting rid of alcohol way quicker than you will be consuming it, through any means necessary.

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?)

Where can you get beer by the 2 liter?
