It wasn’t the pandemic, that caused these problems. It was government lockdowns.
ReplyWe were locked down…what else are we gonna do…
ReplyThe amount of places that sell booze is not the problem. Look at europe. You can buy booze literally everywhere where they sell beverages. Still, drinking is a lot less of a problem here than it seems to be in the Us
ReplyI quit drinking in 2008 when my first kid was born. I can’t handle being hung over around kids but yeah alcohol is everywhere. My point is Bill, you should have pointed out that historically people drank booze since water was generally not clean especially in large populations so they had an excuse
ReplyBan Alcohol. Every use Cannabis & Magic Mushrooms
ReplyWe need a positive attitude. Start in the schools. They’re bummers.
ReplyExcessive alcohol is a self correcting issue. Natural selection will take care of it.
ReplyAbout 30% of traffic-related deaths in America are caused by alcohol- impaired drivers. College campus hazing deaths related to alcohol consumption is sadly very common. Domestic abuse is fueled by alcohol. Drinking is fun, relaxing, and sophisticated.
ReplyI hate it when he’s right. Thank Odin it’s not me this time.
ReplySo the rest of the country has caught up to Wisconsin?
ReplyLol life must have really been hard back in the day, even little Jimmy at 4:59 is getting shit faced.
ReplyJust to play devil’s advocate, there is a difference between having a drink and being a drunkard (says the teetotaler). If it is possible to drink responsibly, it ought to be possible to drink responsibly in the mid afternoon, at the movies, or at the zoo. I agree drinking at the store is a little odd to me, but should still be potentially harmless.
The hard cider at the door, was because water wasn’t potable back then.
I get his larger point, about anxiety and disconnectedness, but that just makes the irresponsible drinking a symptom not the problem itself.
