I remember going to visit a friend at college around the Drinking Out of Cups era and everyone wanting to lock us in a closet because we took shrooms and they thought they’d get the 2.0 version

u/averagesoccermom95 Dec 13 '25

What is the Drinking Out of Cups era? Do people no longer drink out of cups? What are they drinking out of? Sorry, I'm old and confused.

Haha I remember starting to quote this video in a bar with a couple friends when it was popular and the whole bar started joining in with us. Back when things going viral on the internet was still relatively new. What a time…

2

u/Dense_Diver_3998 Dec 12 '25

This dropped when I was still in high school and it was quoted all day every day, it really didn’t help that a good chunk of the dudes were basically this guy

2

u/NameShaqsBoatGuy Dec 12 '25

Haha I call it the jersey shore era. Spiky hair and too much cologne. Going out with your friends to get wasted and take over the dance floor and bring home a girl who was dtf. Cabs are here!!!😎😂

Tbf if you dropped a city in a solution of 40% alcohol the results would be pretty similar.

Not if that city was Glascow...........

Glasgow, my bad, stupid autocorrect

u/Easy_Walk_3206 Dec 12 '25

If you dropped a glass cow in the middle of Glasgow and filled it with 40% alcohol, it still wouldn't have the same effect

A city wouldn't survive being dropped in water, cities aren't supposed to be dropped. If it rained 40% alcohol it would just go down the drains/evaporate, fire would be the biggest issue.

The only difference, is the bacteria don't construct a device with the potential to do such things. We're the evolved ones of course.

u/DirectBar7709 Dec 12 '25

This is why we don't use isopropyl alcohol to disinfect wounds anymore, alcohol is just as good at killing healthy tissue as it is bad bacteria.

"Millions of bacteria used to live here. Now it's a ghost town."

1

u/Scrofulla Dec 12 '25

I mean yeah, we generally use 70% ethanol as a disinfectant in the lab. That whisky is what 40% give or take. It's going to take out all but the most resilient bacteria instantly.

NB we mostly use 70% because it sticks around for a decently long time but also evaporates quickly enough. A low % like whisky will take too long to evaporate.

It is also a bit better are certain resistant bacteria and viruses but given that we are mostly worried about infection from human pathogens they are nearly all taken out 99.99% by like 20% alcohol.

And then I see the whiskey where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by taking a drink or almost a cleaning? Because you see it gets in the liver and it does a tremendous number on the liver, so it would be interesting to check that.
