Uh, that's really wrong. I drink once every couple weeks, sometimes once a month and I can put away 4 glasses of scotch before I feel it.

Well your binge drinking would be responsible for your tolerance then.
Binge drinking is a sign of alcoholism. Not all alcoholics drink daily. Binging and going on runs are also signs of alcoholism.
Seek help.

Didn't say I did drink that much every time I drink. Just that I'm able to. I very rarely have more than a glass when I drink. I only ever drink like that when the occasion calls for it (ren faire).

How many fl ounces of alcohol are you putting in your drinks? You must be putting barely any in there if it takes you 4 drinks before you start getting warm and fuzzy

You're gonna be confident enough to ask for fluid ounces, but not alcohol percentages? Come on.
Minute-Ad-2148 t1_ixamd1a wrote
Why would I need to ask about percentages when they already told me what they drink? Scotch is typically around 60% alc give or take 10 points.
I guess deductive reasoning is not a strength of yours.

Scotch is not typically 120proof lmao. You're talking mighty confidently for a guy who has no clue what he's saying. Try 80 proof (40%) give or take a few points.

Isn't he just adorable? Acting like he knows how everyone's body works. I'm 200 pounds and have a high metabolism.

Oh yeah adorable is just the word I was thinking. That's a great point as well, we haven't brought any of the other diet aspects or genetical differences into the conversation. He's just jumping to conclusions and telling people how to live their life

Nice, so within my margin of error’s margin of error. I knew I was right about that.
death_anxiety t1_ixaxt1m wrote
10 points is not 40 points. Your margin of error is definitely off

I didn’t say my margin of error was correct. I said that my margin of error’s margin of error was correct. Or do you not understand the words that are typed across my comment?

1.5 to 3 ounces.

If you’re pouring 90mls of scotch in your drinks and it takes you four drinks to start feeling warm and fuzzy, you are most deffffinitely an alcoholic
macrone13 t1_ixap3td wrote
that’s a little harsh. The occasional binge - especially socially with others - hardly makes you an alcoholic.

Alcoholism comes in many forms. Not every alcoholic is on the brink of dialysis and unemployed drinking daily. Prolonged periods of abstinence do not preclude someone from alcoholism.
The primary symptom of an alcoholic is an inability to control their drinking, e.g. binge drinking. A typical non alcoholic drinker usually will nurse their drink over a longer period of time, perhaps not even finishing it before it gets warm before going to get another. They will have a set limit on how many drinks (typically 1 or 2) they intend to have and will stick to that limit, possibly not even reaching it. On special occasions such as holidays they may drink more excessively but will do so in a responsible manner and likely will not be bingeing one after the other. They similarly do not drink with the motivation of “feeling it”.

How about you seek help for that nose of yours that you've got buried so deep in other people's business. Might want to look for help dismounting from your high horse while you're at it.

I mean this is TIFU, there’s a lot of alcoholics in here. I’m not exactly concerned about kids like you who are triggered when they read my comments.
