While I was in the Army, there was a period in which they were overly focused on alcohol consumption. They made us do periodic questions about alcohol use. Upfront, let's be clear: my entire life, I've never been much of a drinker. I'm a notorious lightweight because I drink so rarely. I'm a cheapskate who doesn't like spending money and I hate the spins and hangovers. But, I am still a fairly normal man and so I'd partake occasionally. If I am drinking at all it is either to have a 1-2 beers at a function, a single beer over a restaurant lunch/dinner, or I am drinking with intent to get blasted. There's no in between. During my time in the Army, this translated to usually drinking 0.0 beers a week, except for the quarterly party I'd go to where I'd down 10-20 at a time. I took a questionnaire that asked how many drinks I have a week. I answered "Approximately 0.03." They asked if I ever drank to the point of blackout. Yeah, like three times or so in my life. That was it. This use was enough for the Army to flag me as a 'potential alcoholic' and require me to at least get screened by a provider. I worked out the math and explained that this translates to a decimal point of beers a week, and that was enough to get me out of the process, but that was insane. You know what is even more insane? I've encountered people who think this is appropriate. They think having drank to blackout even once in life should have someone cut back. Somehow in a culture of rampant weed, coke, fent, meth, high risk sex, gang violence, and overall degenerate morality, we have effectively created a teetotaling culture that views a single heavy night out as a warning sign of alcoholism. No wonder nobody drinks anymore.
