As long as you are just writing VB or Java, being drunk is fine.
But whatever you do, don't try to write C code under the influence. Bad things will happen.

That's good. :D

No, just pulling in the appeal from the over-19/21 crowd that you left dissappointed with your "Sody Pap" thread. ;)

At least two shots of either sheridans or vanilla vodka and sometimes fizzy peace zinfandel.
So....2 to 3.

I only drink on weekends. Last weekend I drank 16 500ml cans of Stella before heading out. At the bar I probably drank 8 gin and tonics. That's typical.

Usually its 2 or 3 drinks about once per week, however, every now and again I'll drink myself silly (10-20 drinks, maybe two to three times per year)

Vanilla vodka? Zinfandel? ... If I'd known it was this bad when I was down in Guelph, I'd have dragged you out to the clubs and introduced you to my good friend Jack ... Daniels! :D

I said none because most days I don't drink. I have about 4-6 beer on average once per week. Pretty damn good considering most people my age :)

I ordinarily do not drink. This past week I was on a business trip to a company facility in NC. Every evening, after 12 hours of work, we went out for dinner and drank..... excessively. 3 to 4 22 ounce draughts and then more (12 pack of 16 ouncers) in the hotel room. Naturally, being a "macho" man, I caved into the peer pressure and kept up with the rest of my team. None the worse for wear. I haven't had a drink since we returned on Thursday.

I almost never drink, because I'm trying to gain muscle, and alcohol doesn't help with that _at all_.

Uh...vanilla vodka is 80 proof....
But, when I do have whiskey, it's canadian club. Two shots in a full can of diet lemon nestea.

But it's GREAT if you're on a "weight gaining" diet!

All through March Break, actually. I knew you were a fellow Canuck, but didn't realize that you were in the city! :p

Let's see....

I typically drink an 8oz glass of wine every other week or so, plus a 12oz bottle of beer every other week or so. Combining the two, that works out to about 520oz of alcohol per year, or 1.4oz per day.
