Damn straight, same here in Scotland, although not really much England anymore.

That's just because wine is more expensive than beer and whiskey. Someone drinking overpriced whiskey or beer would be seen as elitest/pretentious/possibly european. "gay' is confined for girly drinks though lol.

My brother-in-law is European. American men think or assume he is gay, constantly. But he's just European. ;)

Thats what we call a synonym :beam:

I had alcohol awareness class today and yesterday (yes I was caught with alcohol as a minor). I got home and my friend sent me a messege that his parents are gone for two weeks.........

....that being said I am in favor of no tolerance for drunk driving. If you're above 0.06 in my opinion you should be fined up to $10,000 and 10 years no license. It's the only way for them to learn, and in my state we have the highest amount of people killed from drunk driving accidents - not a laughing matter.

Me? Alcohol? My secondary-school stuents' farewell ball was a special case so in the restaurant I drank less than half glass of wine. And have in mind I was drinking it... 4 hours... In the disco I drank nothing... I just do not like alcohol... I prefer water (mineral water)... :yes:

.....I think you mean 0.6, not 0.06, right? Because you can get that level by using the wrong toothpaste....

No, 0.08% is the legal alcohol limit for driving. A BAC of 0.6 would, in all probability, kill you.

Yep.

Well, that is what happens when you say "0.06", my old maths teacher would've asked sth like: "0.06 what? Camels, donkeys, chocolate bars?" ~;)

lol, I remember my maths teacher used to say that. My geography teacher said if we ever wrote "it" then he would replace it with "submarines".
