POLL: How many drinks do have each week? (Compare to "norms")

[Jingthing]

Think you don't drink much?

Think you drink a lot?

Compare your drinking to norms and see!

I have one drink a day (either a 1.5 ounce shot of hard liquor, small light beer, or sometimes a glass of wine).

So that puts me up there in the graph. (My closest choice was 6.25)

I was a little surprised.

Yes these are USA statistics to compare against, but the USA has a very large diverse population and it is not a "dry" country.

Do you drink a glass of wine with dinner every night? That puts you in the top 30 percent of American adults in terms of per-capita alcohol consumption. If you drink two glasses, that would put you in the top 20 percent.

I'm in the 15.28 bracket (actually a bit lower but not low enough).

Not sure what that says about me as a Brit.

[Jingthing]

A large beer is TWO drinks.
No cheating!

BTW, sometimes people accuse me of posting while drunk even specifically mentioning Thai whiskey.

As you can see, I don't get drunk.

One drink a day.

Might as well be a church lady.

Yes, I know ... BORING!

[pgrahmm]

I buy one bottle per month...usually gone within 7-10 days....then no more.....

[AnotherOneAmerican]

I have about

10 non-alcoholic drinks a day.

0 alcoholic drinks ever.

Did you forget the word 'alcohol' in the OP?

[smokie36]

Its lucky I can't count.

It is implied.

I'm not on this chart.

I'm guessing that there is an implied "or more, but less than ..." (other than the top category).

I would struggle to get into that top category most weeks, but sometimes we have to strive to excel

Drunks can be amusing ... sometimes.
