Preacher, keeping it classy. I remember XXXX when I was in London. It wasn't to bad. Mostly it was the cheapest stuff they had at the pub we went to with a friend of mine that he said wasn't made of piss and donkeys.
I'm classy like a bottle of schlitz.
Preacher on
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
Also, I think that they use the idea of a Standard Drink like we would for a Shot... like, a shot of whiskey with coke in a highball would be one standard drink.
At least, that's what it seemed like with my ex from New Zealand, and it sounds similar to where Eddy is in the UK (London?).
basically nagpra shut down any archaeology relating to native americans without the EXPRESS permission of a tribe elder in the area
like heavy fines and even jail time if you mess with anything relating to native american remains, even by accident
Unless it's been radically amended, I thought the criminal provisions were simply for trafficking in native artifacts. For all other finds you have to report it and turn it over to the local tribes.
well...the uh thing is that her advisors keep saying that NO IT ISNT native american...in a very "if we say it loud enough maybe it will be true" sort of way

Still doesn't meet the trafficking provision, but it damn well will result in a toothless letter from the Department of the Interior, and a stain on their reputations.
A standard drink is not a measure of percentage, it's a measure of amount.
A standard drink is approximately one beer, shot, or glass of wine.
Now that's blatantly misleading because those three things contain different amounts of alcohol...
I think the idea is that one shot of liquor (around 1 oz) is supposed to be equal to approximately 1 beer (12oz) which is supposed to be equal to one glass of wine (I forget if the standard glass is 4 or 6oz). The idea is supposed to already take into account the different alcoholic percentages with the differing volumes.

But they really aren't, well I'm guessing they aren't at the volumes you quoted cause I have no idea how non-metric measuring works for anything.

yeah, no
a shot of micky finn is 12%
a shot of capn morgan is 35%
one is a lot stronger than the other :P
So a Standard Drink of Micky Finn would likely be larger than a Standard Drink of Cap'n Morgan.
It's meant to standardize measurement of intake, I think. So, you could have a number of Micky Finn's before you'd have ingested as much alcohol as in a shot or two of Cap'n Morgan.
"Standard drinks" sound vastly more useless than units of alcohol. I had not thought this possible.
I found it quite silly when the ex was talking about them and whatnot... it didn't seem like a useful measure for purchasing and whatnot, but that's what they apparently used back in NZ.
Like, I guess if you set prices according to standard drinks, and could just get more beers for the same price as a shot of whisky, but that seems strange.

So by "standard drink" we're not referring to these in the quantities that they're sold?
The whole point is that Morgan's is three times stronger than Mickey Finn, but they both come in a 35ml shot glass.

Very true. I wouldn't trust most of you given some of the lies and terrible opinions I've seen voiced around these parts.
Did I inverse it? I do that sometimes. I knew there was a 2 in there somewhere. Been forever since I actually used proof.
I'm not. I haven't drank in the past month. Apparently it just takes a lot for me to get drunk.

A pint of most beers is 2.5-3 units of alcohol.

also "standard drink" is a hilarious measurement
let's use ABV, shall we?
I think about it all the time
A standard drink is approximately one shot of 80 proof liquor.
It is not a shot of anything you put in a 1.5 ounce glass.
Uh, I do actually know what I'm talking about but whatevs.
sheesh, use percentages people
But they really aren't, well I'm guessing they aren't at the volumes you quoted cause I have no idea how non-metric measuring works for anything.

At least alcohol isn't poison like carbs are!

I think if they'd make a unit equal to a pint it would have helped.
Beer being 1.7 to 2.5 units is a pain.
Open this in another tab, it helps.
used to be related to how much water it could be diluted with before gunpowder soaked in it wouldn't still light up or something like that
which is useful if you're in the merchant navy cirka 1800 but ABV really is more convenient
EDIT: Who uses milliliters in cooking?
A pint (half litre) is not the "standard size" though--at least not in NA. The 12oz bottle or can is. (Around 360ml)
Right now!
