I'm as annoying as the high-pitched whine of my motorcycle, desperately compensating for the lack of substance in my life.

this probably varies by state, some laws are basically no operation of anything allowed anywhere at any time when intoxicated

I am interested in most phases of data processing.
I thought the entire point of riding lawnmowers was to make it easier to drink beer while you're doing it

Also thanks for telling me once again that America is a gently caress. The idea that your best bet is having a sober friend to drive you home makes me claustrophobic, you can't just leave when you want.

Or you can get sexually assaulted by a stranger or roofied in public which happens way more often when you don't have a safe way to get home drunk

How does getting home after a night on the town even work in America? Normally, you get the bus/train after buying some lovely fast food, but America only has cars and apparently you can't even buy a burger without a car?

I mean, aside from drunk driving.

let me tell you about drinking and driving

If I'm ever riding my bike on Friday or Saturday afternoons there are certain roads I avoid because they lead to boat ramps and I have seen some absolutely crazy driving out there that I assume is the result of a day on the lake with a case of beer.

That's because they take them on public roads, usually to go buy more beer. If you're just hammered and cutting large circles in your grass, cops won't give a gently caress.

in my zone dui kicks in if you're even riding a bicycle or doing a horse & carriage. Horses are usually p harnessed up in that situation i guess.

the exception is if you're riding a horse, instead of having it pull a vehicle. In that case the horse is probably loose enough and sober enough for it to be fine.

Drunk driving kills one person per million miles on average. Eating in a restaurant during covid has a 1 in 50,000 chance of killing you if you're under 65. All kind of risk metrics are really screwed up now, like how mall Santas now have a more dangerous job than lumberjacks and active-duty troops.

A friend of mine was out with a friend of hers and they got hit on by a creep, and he roofie'd her friend's drink but not hers, and she told me it gave her the weirdest case of disgust and horror mixed with "wow ok, am I not good enough bud??"

When a friend of mine went to university there was a guy in their year who would roofie one or multiple young women every party. Apparently he was a quiet, somewhat likeable guy. At one party a girl started feeling it and her boyfriend took her to her room after announcing he was going to kill any male that opened her door.

Eventually they were able to narrow it down to this guy but the university/ cops wouldn’t take action, so a group of guys that included the boyfriends of the women he’d drugged all piled into his room and told him it would be a good idea if he dropped out asap, which he did.

I visited a ranch once and one of the stable hands was just popping beers and setting them in front of a horse that would grab them with his teeth and chug them. horse drank a six pack in like a minute.
