    i don't rate much about this country but the ability to have the odd drink at when you're 8 is certainly one upside. having to wait til 21 is mad.

      In certain US states (most of them?), it's legal for people under 21 to drink alcohol with parental supervision. Ironically, being exposed to Old Milwaukee Lite piss-water when I was about 7 made me stay away from booze until I was 21.

        yeah genuinely - i feel like associating vodka with my mother/family events much more strongly than Cool Fun Parties definitely helped dull the lustre of going wild when i turned 18, and "underage" drinking made sure i knew my limits by the time i went out into the world on my own. its good for the soul and that's why the average amerikkkan is Like That 😔🙏
