Rainy Monday

There's certainly more ways than one to get there. I might have come close to that number a few times, but I'm much closer to that second group now.

so lawn bowling if I don't drive I might have 5-7 and that is a big night for me

Gopher games I hit 10 (if not more) but that is usually 8 hours of solid drinking but outside of that I pretty rarely hit 10

Although there might be occasional friday night my pours might be a little heavy and number is closer to ten even though I only had 5-6

A bottle of wine is 10 drinks, a handle of gin is 42, it's not as much as you think it is to get to 74

who the fuck gets 10 drinks out of a bottle of wine? 4-5 tops

Unless you're talking about jug wine



that' the good stuff

Is that from the study?

A bottle of wine is 4-5 glasses. A bartender would get fucked up trying to pour 10.

Pretty sure he was talking 1.5 L bottles, not the primo stuff presented here.

74 seems like a light day for Wisconsin people.

really? because I think I am surprised that a bottle of wine and a bottle of gin still isn't 74 drinks...

shit...2 bottles of gin a week is above the average in this misinformed scenario...

A bottle of wine is five glasses, tops.

Typically, for this kind of thing, they consider a mixed drink to have one shot (1.5oz) of booze. A handle (1.75l), not a bottle (750ml), holds about 39 shots. A regular bottle, also known as a fifth, holds about 17 shots.

if I put 2 shots in one glass, it's still one drink

albeit a gross misinterpretation of the data that makes it sound like the average American drinks 2 bottles of booze a week...

I just remember reading it. Glad you found it ti clear it up. Still, the average person drinks a lot which is my point. That top 10% are fucking animals tho.

I don't think the average person drinks a lot based on that study...

Weed is still illegal in Wisconsin so there’s got to be a connection there.

This is something someone who isn’t ready to admit they have a drinking problem might say.

Could be, but it would be unusual to refer to a 1.5L bottle as "a bottle." They're generally called magnums.

Word.

Rare that I pour myself a cocktail with less than 3oz.

I figured that would come up, but that's what they're called.
