I gather that the Germans are a bit more responsible about drinking.
Specifically not getting blitzed. Which leads to the question of
how to get that across the pond into the American culture...


I think you get that across the pond by treating drinking as a normal
adult pastime, and ostracizing people who over-do it. Our culture
has evolved (at the legal level, anyway) into treating drinking as
quasi-criminal and thus, for the younger crowd, romantic. In this
atmosphere it becomes the forbidden fruit.




You're an idiot
