damn dude

I got nothing, even assuming .5l beer with 5% ABV, those 7 whisky shots have seven times as much alcohol as 2 beers.

If I drink it's usually in the evening. Like this weekend sat down to watch a volleyball game had 3 beers. Feel asleep before the first set ended at like 8pm.

Next night about 4 mixed drinks in a hour. Just whiskey diet coke and about 2 after. Had a good buzz managed to stay up until 2am

This is maybe at most once a month

Do you always drink whiskey and coke? Coke has caffeine in it.
