12 oz “US”

Which is why I said give or take :)

This isn’t about “defending” anything. Alcohol is a dangerous substance. And most people here know that.

That said your level of fear mongering is extreme to say the least. You sound like someone telling everyone not to go within 1km of an ankle deep pond because they’ll drown.

While possible in both cases to get permanent brain damage or drown. It is extremely unlikely on a winning a large lotto level.

Almost all people will pass out or start throwing up, long before they get near that level. Especially if they are not already an alcoholic with huge tolerance.

Source: 20 year hard core binge drinking alcoholic (20-30 drinks a day or more). That has been in the hospital 6 times for withdraw myself. And in rehab multiple times with large groups of other extreme alcoholics…

Edit: I strongly suspect most (if not all) those you thought had that condition were actually under the influence. Daily drinking alcoholics are extremely good at both hiding it ( oh I have to go to the bathroom) and lying about. They will tell you straight to your face they haven’t had a drink in weeks after you just caught them drinking a beer.

Generally most consider a “beer” 355ml (12oz us) give or take.

This except the complete opposite… :p

The FDA definitions and regulations cost corporations money, because they need to produce what they claim.

History lesson, pre-FDA a large corporation got caught selling thickened yellow sugar water as honey… The kicker was they would put a dead bee in each bottle to sell the fraud.

FDA, EPA and other larger government regulating agencies aren’t perfect but jesus was shit crazy bad before them.

(Another fun example, look up the Ohio river fire. Yes, the companies literally dumped enough shit into the river, it caught fire.)

It all depends on what the person modifying the sign had available. Having been that person, you work with what you got…

More like 40 years!

That said, I loved my electric opener from 92’.

There was a knack to it, but I could be done opening a can before someone even started with a manual opener.

If he was, the routine would also involve an ice cold lake and vodka…

For me it was might and magic III, yes I’m very old…

My roommate, RA for the dorm, and I played for 3 months straight on my computer. It was never turned off 24/7 …

Anti dandruff shampoo!

I seem to have touched a nerve. I’ll let you sit in your echo chamber and believe what you want. Good day.

This is a discussion about how they treat outsiders not how they treat people that spent years becoming part of their society. Also guess which country has one of the toughest immigration policies on earth?

Maybe, but a well known one that’s been discussed and written about many times over the years.

If it makes you feel better, Japanese hate any and all outsiders, especially if you get away from the touristy areas.
