True. Especially true if they're openly alcoholic. Bottles of liquor are easier to conceal than several cases of beer.This may be power leveling but one side of my family seems to get drunk exclusively on shitty light beer. The grandparents would kill five, six, seven cases of Bud Light by themselves, and their grandchild does the same thing with Miller. All of them avoid hard liquor like the plague. They were fairly open about their alcoholism, too, so it wasn’t a coping thing.
Fun fact, I have heard first hand of several medical accounts that drinking a six pack of beer can help pass difficult kidney stones. Some medical professionals will actually recommend to do this in private optionally. The idea is that something in it helps to round them out so that they can more easily pass the ureter. Obviously in conjunction with medication. I remember an ER nurse saying they passed a 11mm (absurd) stone using this method. So see, there are benefits! You should keep drinking even if you become destitute, Nick!
Do I think it works? I don't care. Beer is not my thing. I prefer a good whiskey, rum or wine. I don't drink to get drunk or even tipsy. I drink preferably when in good company or during the holidays. Having a good beverage on hand is what's critical.
