[–] frostysauce@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago (1 child) Pfft. You're underestimating the human liver. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago* (1 child) If we're not joking, I kind of think the liver would go first. Unless your mixing it to like a 4% ABV, then maybe the beetus might get ya first. Honestly there is a good chance you stress your liver out so much that the sugar and your food (bc let's be honest, your probably not eating healthy either) gets turned into a shitload of triglycerides and you stroke out or have a heart attack from too long of hyperlipidemia. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) Some alkies go decades drinking way more than that every single day. Humans are surprisingly resilient. Inspirational, really permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 years ago* Yeah, but I am just referencing average outcomes. It's a bit of a selection bias, because you don't see all the alcoholics in the ground and the liver doesn't really "hurt" until like end stage liver failure. So alcoholics can seem relatively okay, until one day they are not. Oh, and an alcoholic is exceptionally prone to drunk driving. Something like high 80% of people who det a DUI is or will be an alcoholic. So an alcoholic is way more likely to kill themselves wrapped around a tree before their liver blows. permalink fedilink source parent
