Alcohol has less surface tension than water so... how?

Edit: Nvm... Im dumb, the camera angle makes it look wrong... Maybe im the drunk here.

    Optical illusion. The camera is placed at the center of the glass in close proximity, showing the bottom of the glass at a downward angle but the top at an upward angle. Compare the top of the glass to the cap of the bottle, and you will see that the “surface tension bubble” is actually just the rim

    No idea why I was so drunk. I had only one glass!

    Don't do this. Fireball is 33% Alcohol (66 proof). 3 oz of pure alcohol is enough to start considering immediate risks to your health, this bottle is 750ml or about 25 oz of which 8 are pure alcohol, drinking this amount in one go can send you to the emergency room and an entire bottle can kill you, and it will NOT feel good.

    Thanks, I didn't make this and am actually only drinking a beer. I wish my kitchen were so tidy though.

    The whole AI craze has me wondering if anyone has clean counters, or if I just need to clear mine off...

    "In one go" is a loose term here. You're not going to feel pretty tomorrow no matter which way you slice it, but if you start at like 7pm and are up until like 1 or 2 in the morning that's a lot of time to space out the drinking. For a 750 ml bottle that's about 2.5 shots an hour. Bad for you, but doable. Not to mention they did not fill the cup up with a whole bottle.

    Source: have done.

    Someone is not an alcoholic. I’ve downed 12 oz of rum in one gulp. Didn’t even feel sick. Don’t drink no more for obvious reasons.

    I'm the same but I've calmed it down lately quite a bit but I was drinking a bottle of Wray & nephew overproof rum in pretty much one sitting and that 63% pretty much double fireball.

    I won't pretend it was healthy or wise but yeah I'm alive and I did that a lot.

    for real

    fireball is light. I like bankers club Gin and Evan Williams bourbon. it's an act of self control not to drink half a bottle a night.

    I'm not an alcoholic, I just like to drink, and keep my tolerance up for social situations.

    Yesterday was my birthday. I was shopping beverages and saw a bottle of this stuff. I decidet to buy it and give it a try because i saw this post. I thought it would taste terrible but might be fun at the party. I was really surprised and a litte disapointed that it actually tastes good. cheers.

    I've drunk some hardcore guys under the table but that much Fireball might actually kill me. Me and Fireball do NOT get along all well at all.

    Used to do this with vodka, you will absolutely end up in some situations
