Yes but that is different from students getting drunk 2 (maybe a bit more often) days a week.

True, that's why I said I doubt Peds is like that.

The thing is, it doesnt matter what you eat or drink day in day out, its never healthy. Every kind of food is cancer stimulant if u eat it day in day out. If u dont want to eat or drink anything that is bad for your health, your not allowed to eat anything.

Your image won't load for me Drofder, although if it's similar to its description of 'toecutter013nw' then I think I know what it might look like...

Indeed, 3 years of university, going out twice per week, on a typical night I'll probably drink about 15 units, so that'd 30 units per week.

No, it doesn't. A unit takes an hour to filter through your system as it were, so the effects of a night out will have worn out by mid-day the following day.

P.S. I know you didn't mean it like that, but you wrote it in a way which made it seem worse than it is!

Its called statistics, you study it.

Indeed, that's why I'm right and you're wrong

Taken from a BUPA:
21 units per week is the recommended alcohol intake for men. If you are approaching, at or above this level - it's time to think about cutting down.

You are already way over the recommended weekly maximum, maybe instead of statistics you should've studied medicine.

If you drink heavily you have an increased risk of developing:

* Hepatitis (inflammation of the liver).
* Cirrhosis (scarring of the liver). Up to 3 in 10 long-term heavy drinkers develop cirrhosis.
* Stomach disorders.
* Pancreatitis (severe inflammation of the pancreas).
* Mental health problems including depression, anxiety, and various other problems.
* Sexual difficulties such as impotence.
* Muscle and heart muscle disease.
* High blood pressure.
* Damage to nervous tissue.
* Accidents - drinking alcohol is associated with a much increased risk of accidents. In particular, injury and death from fire and car crashes. About 1 in 7 road deaths are caused by drinking alcohol.
* Some cancers (mouth, gullet, liver, colon and breast).
* Obesity (alcohol has many calories).
* Damage to an unborn baby in pregnant women.
* Alcohol dependence (addiction).

How about those odds now Peds, you feeling lucky?

I already knew I drink over the 'recommended weekly maximum', it doesn't take a rocket scientist to work that out. I'm not going to be doing it all my life, however, so it doesn't bother me particularly. Clearly, it's doing me no good health-wise, but the enjoyment outweighs the detrimental effects to my health.

Who cares about those side affects?
You eat meat? oh darn, that causes a lot of deseases aswell..
Salt on your food

Big no no.
cheese sandwich, oi, oi, that could reduce ur your age.
oh ooooh, you live in london, bad for your lungs.
Need I go on? Eating fruit probably is very unhealthy, they just havent studied the effects of eating fruit very well yet.

No one here is denying that drinking alchohol is bad for your body, but you all overreact

Drinking Dr. Pepper makes you impotent, everything either causes cancer or some shit nowadays. I think the odds of getting it are like 1 in 3, so who cares about drinking or anything.

* - You are correct, luckily our rocket scientists don't participate in the pointing fingers towards the alcoholics, they have more important matters than the scum of the earth.

**** - Is that some sick twisted way of telling me you are currently knocking one out? O_o
