    A bit of a no—brainer: Don’t drugs.

      That has literally nothing to do with the question.

        OP guzzles half a bottle of whiskey and ends up partially dysfunctional. Or OP overdoses on beer and passes out. OP better consider tee-totaling.

          Two beers (as stated in their post and the comments) is overdosing? Maybe for a four year old. But two beers shouldn’t get an adult anywhere near proper OD levels.

          Alcohol is definitely a drug, and according to the WHO even small amounts are dangerous for your health. By his own admission the poster is well beyond manageable amounts.

            You know what they say about people who assume something.

            I’m actually a light drinker , dont do it very often. I just find I can handle liquor far better than beer

              That may be a low total amount (only drinking once a month), but that would typically be described as binge drinking.

                To me binge drinking has always been blackout drunk can’t remember, throwing up etc. I never come close to that point

                  I think the “official” definition is 5 drinks (4 for women) in two hours.

            Oh, trusting the WHO? You should probably read up on some of the psuedo-science they peddle.

            Is alcohol good for us? Depends on how you define that.

            But in the end, everything you’ve said has fuck all to do with OPs question, you just wanted to get on your high horse, preach and condemn.

            Tell me again how you’re perfect?
