Bacon won in Nebraska 2. Does binge drinking matter?

We have built a very unhappy society. Women are especially unhappy. That “strong and independent” stuff hasn’t worked out at all well for them.

She should have gone to rehab.

Sad, but alcohol is considered a drug and is addictive. Used in moderation one can likely live a long time. But I’ve known two that had issues. One died from a binge. Another turned himself into a vegetable and wound up in a nursing home while in his early 30’s. My uncle wound up in an early grave due to heavy drinking, I think his liver couldn’t take it.

I personally do not do any of it, booze or drugs or tobacco.

All the toys I’ve bought from the savings are more fun than hangovers, frying my brain or croaking off early.

She was a great musician. Gone too soon.

Best to just split with your narcissistic personality disordered partner and be stone cold sober ...take up hang gliding maybe, write a novel, build a cathedral out of used playground equipment. You’ll figure it out and it will be immensely rewarding and you’ll leave a legacy for yourself.

Our world has gone into the crapper. People are drinking more to try to escape, or at least deaden the pain of life.

That’s also why many people are turning to marijuana.

Genetics do play a part and can lead to susceptibility. One uncle used to drink whiskey all day until his 70s and then toned it down to just evenings. He was robbed of his youth at 94. I used to always see another uncle with a Strohs in his hand. He died at the tender age of 96.

Alcohol is clearly a gateway drug

But she was killed because she refused to let the cabal “mould me into a big triangle shape.”

The statistic about 1 in 5 adults in the US does binge drinking at least once a week.... That seems like it must be very high, or the people I know are mostly not drinking like that. Not 1 in 5, for sure.

And a lot of people become desensitized to the feeling of alcohol consumption and their bodies defenses against it also decline - and even believe how they “feel” is how drunk they are. Wrong.

Then some people drink 2 24 oz. beer bottles and claim “I only had 2 beers.” No, you had 4. Or a mixed drink with several servings of alcohol all in one. “I only had one drink.” No, you had several.

Her blood alcohol concentration was 0.416%, more than five times the legal intoxication limit in the U.S.

Amy Winehouse was a special case, an outlier - not the norm!

"A diagnosis of an alcohol use disorder is now used over outdated terms such as labeling an individual as an alcoholic or having alcoholism."

Ahhh...alcoholism feels sad, lonely and outdated, and has chosen to identify as an "alcohol use disorder".

Sorry, my "identity-identifier" gizmo is broken, so I think I'll stick to alcoholism.
