  • I've personally never felt any different after some drinks on a flight versus on the ground. I didn't find any study or anything that supports this, I was trying to find something that supported what they said (and I have also heard it said). All I could find was speculation. I wouldn't even feel a drink an hour at my height and weight.

  • I've heard that as well, though I looked it up and it doesn't seem to have any hard evidence (from a cursory google search). The one thing I did see that seemed convincing is that higher altitudes have less oxygen, so your blood will have less oxygen making you feel more drunk at a BAC level you would be fine with on the ground.

  • That's actually not that many, assuming they weren't guzzling 10 in the first hour. Depending on height and body weight, a drink an hour wouldn't even put a male's BAC above the legal driving limit in most places in the U.S.

    Drunk or not, they should definitely be catching charges

  • LOL you're wrong. That's it. And then you continue to refuse to accept that fact. You haven't provided any actual argument here except for that straw man about whether or not it's okay for people call things whatever they want. Your anecdote about "I've heard people call it that" carries no weight. I mean, just look at their website: https://www.federalreserve.gov/aboutthefed.htm

    Or wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Reserve

    I mean seriously, you've gotta be trolling at this point.

  • I'm ok with people beginning to call

    They aren't beginning to, and being okay with people calling things whatever they want isn't the point. You can call a shoe a turd holster if you want, but that doesn't mean people will know what you mean nor would that make them any less intelligent for not understanding what you mean.

  • Let's be real, it is a valid correction that was prefaced as "Pedantic nitpick", so it's odd to see you continue calling it one as it had been established at the onset. Seeing how you take this correction and double down on it shows that it was a good one to make, as it seems that you remain confused as to what "the Fed" refers to for one reason or another.

    You are mistaken, and that's not such a bad thing. I enjoy being (correctly) corrected because I would rather know the moment I utter something incorrect, than go around being incorrect to everyone I know.

  • Funny. But how the hell did college students have the money for grass sod? That's something I consider expensive even as an adult with plenty of disposable income. (Please tell me it was "appropriated" from some stock the university had on hand)
