      Yup, dating didn’t make her drink. Also I wouldn’t want to date someone who can’t function without alcohol.

        Theres a difference between “i need to drink before socializing” and “i may not have dated in a while and a buzz would help calm the nerves”. theres plausoble explanation for this.

          And there’s a difference between “I’ll have a sip of vodka to loosen me up” and “I’ll ‘pound shots’ and ‘chug vodka for 5 minutes’”

            She could have just had a shot and spent the 4 minutes making wrenching faces holding it down…

              But then the guy wouldn’t have “watched her chug vodka for 5 minutes” he would have watched her take one shot and 4.9 minutes not chugging. I don’t think they mean chugging for 5 minutes straight but I also think it’s silly to pretend like it was a teensy sip of vodka. Also the thing says pound shots so it’s at least 2.

            I wouldn’t pay too much attention to that last part. The story is either fake or it is exaggerated to make it funny. In either case, vodka isn’t something a normal person would drink, let alone right before a date.
