At least we Yanks don't kill rival soccer enthusiasts while binge drinking.

>>>>>>>>Last month, the British Prime Minister's Strategy Unit published a
report that binge drinking is a growing problem, especially among young
people in the United Kingdom. Defining binge drinking as consuming the
equivalent of four pints of beer by a man or three pints by a woman, the
Interim Analytical Report for the National Alcohol Harm Reduction Strategy
said 40 percent of men's drinking sessions and 22 percent of women's can be
termed binge drinking.


The problem is clearly that British beer standardly available in pubs is so
weak and flavorless that the "youf" are drinking more and more in order to
try to salvage some paltry sense of satisfaction from this watery, soapy
drivel. The answer? More beers with actual ingredients in them.
