Looks like there's going to be rather large issue of
Duh! magazine next month. Turns out some people in Europe drink because they want to get
drunk. Who'd a thunk it?
Germans are Europe's worst binge drinkers with almost one in five believing "the point of drinking is to get drunk," according to a survey Wednesday.
"Although the Germans may not go drinking as often as the British, when they do drink, many want to get drunk," said Mintel senior consumer analyst Michelle Strutton.
The survey showed that 17 percent of German adults believe "the point of drinking is to get drunk." This was twice the proportion of adults in Britain who felt the same way.
I thought most people drink two gallons of beer at one sitting because of it's unique and diverse nutritional content.
