Well we do drink plenty, but yes not "much" despite cheaper six packs here.

Not as "much as i can" lol.

and hard stuff like rum or gin or more popular here whiskey!

are much cheaper in u. s. but most of us just drink moderately not like french "a tall glass of wine 12%" every day.

Just a few shots of whiskey. Most are not alcoholics so we just drink a bit. Despite cheaper, Not rely on that to drink the whole bottle! Just a few shots!

Also we know that too much drinking strains liver and weakens brain cells. Which led to 2 jokes

A, bar guy: "do you want a refill?"

Drunk:"nah it kills brain cells"

Bar guy:"humans anyway don't use 90% of our brains" 😄

B, a jew moved from rural new york into the city. At his first check up, dr. Asked "do you use alcohol"?

The jew considered what he should say, "on the one hand" he did drink wine but "on the other hand " not as an alcoholic just for his religion several ceremonies, but if he told the truth of "a couple times a week" then dr. Might think he was a drunk! so instead he was vague:" i drink religiously." 🤴😉

Americans drink a lot. Europeans are different but generally French, greeks and Italians drink moderately wine with meals. Beer in Spain is real cheap. Eastern Europeans drink huge amounts of vodkas. In England people drink one or two pints of beer or ale at lunchtime, then a few after work, a lot on Friday or Saturday nights and of course Sunday after church. In Scotland they seem to get hammered on Buckfast. Ireland seems to be drinking less because of the high taxes. The UK and Ireland have huge taxes on alcohol

Cultural attitudes towards alcohol can vary greatly between regions. In many European countries, alcohol consumption is a part of daily life, often enjoyed with meals. However, people tend to drink more in moderation. Health awareness and campaigns about responsible drinking have influenced behavior in the US and Europe, encouraging moderation. These regions often emphasize the social, relaxed aspect of drinking rather than just consuming large quantities. 🍷

We are tired of you Middle Easterners. When you drink alcohol, you think you are one of us, don't you? Go away, there is no place for you here.
