    Someone is not an alcoholic. I’ve downed 12 oz of rum in one gulp. Didn’t even feel sick. Don’t drink no more for obvious reasons.

      I’m the same but I’ve calmed it down lately quite a bit but I was drinking a bottle of Wray & nephew overproof rum in pretty much one sitting and that 63% pretty much double fireball.

      I won’t pretend it was healthy or wise but yeah I’m alive and I did that a lot.

      Yeah same I drink very moderately now but once upon a time that bottle would be significantly less than one normal weekend night out, or a fairly difficult weeknight.

      for real

      fireball is light. I like bankers club Gin and Evan Williams bourbon. it’s an act of self control not to drink half a bottle a night.

      I’m not an alcoholic, I just like to drink, and keep my tolerance up for social situations.
