Nothing accidental about ingesting copious amounts of alcohol

They teach kids about the dangers of alcohol in school still don't they?

It's about as accidental as pushing a kitchen knife into your stomach

Well actually, there kind of is.

Ingesting copious amounts of alcohol is a semi deliberate choice. Ingesting the same physical volume which now has the side effect of being X times more powerful without knowledge can certainly happen when your judgement is already impaired by alcohol.

Especially when you can drink well beyond copious amounts of alcohol without drinking what you'd think to be "copious amounts" of alcohol when it's 95% alcohol.

Pretty sure everyone in this forum has had "one drink too many" even in their impeccable judgment. And if that "one drink" is dialled up into insane levels, well, this can happen.

agreed.

As a teen, I necked entire bottles of vodka, scotch, tequila etc... if I had done that with rectified spirits... well I don't want to know what would have happened...

I'm not blaming anyone but myself... not at all.

The thing is, as a teenager you are a complete retard, and when it comes to drinking you don't yet know your limits.

There is only one way to learn, and with 95% alcohol you can easily go WAY over it before you even realise.

I was addressing the dude above your post. Banning the drink is not the answer

But we have the same opinion, so, what he said is what I say about the thing.

From a FREEDOMMMSS standpoint banning the drink isn't the answer.

Then again, how many times do you really require 95% alcohol shots?

... I mean if you're in that kind of situation, where only 95% alcohol works for you anymore, it may be time to consider what lead you to that scenario ;)

This all really boils down to

"Its fine, if you excercise knowledge and judgement"

However the usage of the item impairs knowledge and judgement.

Unless you start the night with 95% alcohol shots, in which case PARTY HARD YO, but, like I said before, if you're doing this then someone should really be stopping you and saying "hey mate.... you have a problem"

... in which case there's no real downside to not selling the stuff in the first place

I don't buy being drunk as an excuse for someone not knowing how drunk they are, when so many young people go around a party bragging about how smashed they are. Have been at the point of blacking out (have never fully passed out) and, yes, judgement is severely impaired, but still been able to think to myself "okay I'm fked now, that's enough for me".

So the math: she had two shots of Spirytus according to article. 500ml bottle contains 38 standard drinks.

That's 2.28 standard drinks per average 30ml shot, call it 5 standard drinks if you will. Even if those shots were seconds apart, that will not kill you. It'll get you drunk very quickly, but it won't kill you and you'll know exactly how drunk you are in 10 minutes time. If that was enough to push her over the edge for lethal dose then she simply had way too much to drink beforehand. 5 shots of whiskey would have done the same thing, or 2-3 shots of Chartreuse, or 4 full strength beers. If it can happen with Spirytus, it can happen with anything else. She just had too many drinks period and banning or controlling that drink won't stop this happening.

Yes she probably didn't mean to die from it, so if you wanna use the word accident there I'll accept that she didn't mean to die...but in the same way that I'd accept someone doing double the speed limit and crashing to be an accident. It's the idiot at the end of the bottle, not the drink. You can kill yourself with water if you're stupid enough and plenty do.

I'm a big drinker and even I think 95% alcohol is too far to be sold as a beverage.

make the cutoff 80% you could still get stroh or pure polish spirit.... if you need more than that you need fkn help lol

Should you really be modifying your car, given that you clearly have a severe problem with doing so?

Kinkstahh used "moralising"... It's not very effective

Only a few days separated her from being an underage drinker

Pretty funny how black and white the law is sometimes. Do you think she grew smarter / more responsible in those few days? I'd say the opposite, in the space of a day lol

Interestingly on a similar topic, saw this article

Let's got to Bali cause we can get smashed every night and it's so f**king cheap mate.

Good luck chasing liability from an impoverished foreign country...and people get their surgeries done offshore these days...

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
