I'm a 67 year-old adult. And I don't think I'm an edge case. Most of the adults I know in the UK drink a lot. How old are you, may I ask?

- ColinWright 5y agoI'm in the UK, and most of the adults I know drink very, very little, and many drink no alcohol at all. You obviously move in different circles. And the grandparent comment said: >> ... your comment reads like that of a teenager trying to be edgy and not that of a mature adult. It doesn't matter that you're 67 ... your comment still sounds like that of a teenager trying to be edgy. You might, of course, regard that as a compliment -- in a sense you're staying young at heart and in attitude.
- zabzonk 5y ago> You obviously move in different circles Being an adult, I think I probably do. When was the last time you went into a pub, Covid allowing? > your comment still sounds like that of a teenager trying to be edgy Well I bow to your teenager observational expertise. Did you happen to notice any slight drunkenness on Sunday, perhaps?
- ColinWright 5y agoI'm a 60-year-old adult, and I work with teenagers in education. So I have experience of teenagers. I'm a director of a company that produces equipment that does the maritime equivalent of Air Traffic Control, so I have experience of both civilian and military adults. And most of the adults I know drink very little, including this last Sunday. Most people I know have decided that getting drunk is less fun than staying sober. As I say, we clearly move in different circles. I'm not denying your experience, I'm just providing balance.
- blowski 5y agoI am 40, and drank 2 pints, one of Suffolk County and Old Growler respectively (both from the excellent Nethergate Brewery). It was truly a wild night for me.
