        It's fine to hate popular things, but don't ruin other people's fun.

        Also: don't drunk drive.

              in my experience, culturally, drinking one (1) 4.8% ABV 33ml can of beer in Europe is drunk driving

              Drinking two (2) 6.2% ABV fl oz (946ml total) glasses of beer and smoking weed in the USA is not drunk driving.

              Not defending it, just saying that it was eye opening how many people in the US get behind the wheel after drinking what they consider a small amount of alcohol

                  Probably also doesn't hurt that the US is generally far more reliant on driving to get anywhere. There's a higher tolerance for doing it dangerously since there's no alternative

                    Legally speaking in the USA anything after the first is driving while intoxicated/under the influence (different states use DWI or DUI).

                    Working in the booze biz you are sadly correct though. I had a wine rep a few years back offer to pay for my parking in NYC if I went to a tasting. I told him I was taking the train and he was surprised. He shouldn’t be.

                          Edit: tangent point the above image in the post reminded me of.

                          For every person who thinks they're interesting for hating a popular thing, there's ten who will be like OMG YOU THINK YOURE SO SPECIAL AND BETTER THAN EVERYONE when you casually mention you don't particularly care for a popular thing.

                            I used to be the kind of person who hated anything popular. And in Texas country music has always been popular. So I mercilessly mocked anyone who enjoyed it. "So is your cousin any good in bed?" "What has 103 fingers and 32 teeth? The front row at a Garth Brooks concert." I have dozens of jokes about being stupid, inbred, toothless, smoking cigarettes, going to Walmart, and other stereotypical things associated with being a country music fan.

                            I'm still not a fan but sometime in the last 10-12 years or so I stopped giving a shit what anyone else liked. If it's not for me but it's not hurting anyone I just don't care if someone likes country or pop, movies with popular actors, wants to dress in a way I see as weird, likes food that I don't enjoy, or whatever.

                            I wish I could go back and change it because I know I made some people feel bad for enjoying what they like.

                            Edit: fixed a word.

                              I thought it was a matter of severity, with DUI being over the limit but not obviously impaired and DWI driving while there's no doubt that you're drunk, leading to more severe punishment?

                                  In NL you are allowed to have 0,05% of alcohol in your blood, which is about 2 Dutch classes. We often server 0.2L glasses these days, it sucks ...

                                  And waith you can have almost of litre of beer in your blood and it is still not drunk driving? Yeeeez, especially considering the US is a shit place to walk or bike. No wonder why there are so many drunk driving accidents
