It’s a story that seems more suited for the pages of The Onion than Reuters. And yet, here it is.

Truth is stranger than fiction, after all…

A few too many ya think?

And that, my dear friends, is why drinking is bad for you.

…those Russians can chug it down. Or they at least try.

I had Russian vodka once, after we chipped in for a bottle. Holy fucking shit, and they drink that stuff every day?:thud:

If your economy was that shitty, I think you would drown yourself in liquor.

Uh, Sin … the thread’s title scares me … >_>

I never posted the story about the first Russian children’s alcohol rehab center? Some were younger than 10.

they have some cool rock and roll though

Red Elvises

Seriously, what did they think would happen?

This will teach me to never drink to the extreme that could end with me dead in an hour due to alcohol intoxication.

A perfectably legitimate contest, seems like it even had a nice price: A get out of life card.

The lesson of this: You might like vodka, but your liver does not.

If that where true, my whole country would have drowned in wine and beer a loooooooooong time ago.

That’s because one isn’t meant to just “chug it down.” You’re supposed to drink it in the company of friends while eating an appropriate kind of food, like a roast with mashed potatoes, or herring, or salmon, or salted mushrooms, or even a fuckin’ pickle if you can’t find anything else.

I’m not surprised.

I’d like to buy those guys a round.

There are a lot of reasons as to why that is…
