If I drink I use an online calculator to measure my % BAC and keep myself in the zone in which euphoria ensues but before depression starts. I drink that much maybe once every three or for years; Otherwise I drink a single drink or two maybe three or four times a year.

I tried to go back further twice, but blacked out and was woozy for days after.

5 minutes.... if it takes longer than 5 minutes, its not worth doing.

Anyone who finishes that quickly is not worth doing.
Disagree. Some would say if you knew you only had only 5 minutes, you'd go out of your way to maximize that time. You're equating duration to quality which isn't always necessarily true.

Neither Sammy Hagar nor I can drive 55. So I guess that's a lower limit.

I've slammed about 375ml of 80 proof light cheap liquor b4. I'd say 2x 40's of old school St. Ides malt liquor. 3x mickeys or 8-balls (oe800). Big dude so my stomach is the limit for most American beer (get full first).

I never found my wine limit, but between the wife and I 4 bottles wasn't quite "cant see or walk" drunk.

Last night 2x Hacker-Schorr hefe-weisse, 1x titan IPA, and a full sail IPA chilling on the sand on the beach was just about there (before I hit the "I shouldn't drive" softcap. ) we walked over to IHOP and had the split-decision just to be sure first. )

2 shots of jager.
2 shots of candy bs like Aftershock.
A full 16oz glass of good single-malt. (Taken neat in 3oz portions with some water from the source in Scotland ideally)
