Don't drink more than quarter of a pint a DAY?

Post by vacant »

"recommended consumption – for men and women – would be cut to half a unit a day"

0.5 units per day = 3.5 per week = 182 units per year x 80 (drinking lifetime 95-15) = 14,650 units

WTF? Fortunately Vacant logic proves:

25 units per week = 1,300 per year x 42 years drinking so far = 54,600 units

54,600/14,650 = 3.72

3.72 * 42 drinking years + 15 start age = 171

Conclusion?

Wish me happy 171st equivalence birthday because if I'd stuck to 0.5 units per day, I'd feel 171 as life crawled boringly by.

"Experts from Oxford University." Firstly, there is no such institution. Secondly, have you seen how much academics drink?

Drinking mead on a regular basis can increase the size of a man's testicles by up to 25% in the course of a year.
