Alcohol-Related Deaths in Adults Under 65 Surpassed COVID-Related Deaths

#1

I think you can blame the lock downs, the business closures and the other restrictions mandated for an increase in drinking among Adults.....

Shock Numbers: Alcohol-Related Deaths in 2020 Among Adults Under 65 Surpassed COVID-Related Deaths

COVID-19 related deaths among adults younger than 65 were outnumbered by alcohol-related deaths in 2020, according to a report.

Alcohol-related deaths in the United States increased by 25% from 2019 to 2020, as The New York Times reported, citing a study done by researchers with the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism.

WFH probably adds as well, not a lot of people can day drink at the cube farm.

I didn't realize men who worked in advertising and other such jobs back in the 50s drank pretty much all day while at work. At least the more established ones did. The show Mad Men was a drama series set in a NYC based advertising agency starting in the 50s and ending in the 70s I think.

It was interesting to see an idea of how life was back then but I kept thinking their livers weren't going to survive all that liquor. Lol.

I guess so! I just kept thinking the amount of liquor consumed and tobacco smoked combined with lack of exercise had to cause some serious health problems.

I think it was time magazine that actually hosted a roundtable of actual 1960s mad men while that show was being produced and asked them all how accurate it was.
They all said it was very accurate except for most of them had banal sex lives and didn't cheat.  But all the daydrinking and backbiting, that stuff was all true.

They all talk good game about not being that kind of girl, but, in the end they all like it.

Some do like it.  Some request it.  I wouldn’t go as far as that they all like it.  And quite frankly, as a man, I’ll do it but that’s not exactly my thing.  Sure, it gets the job done.  She may or may not like it.  But it’s almost like science and other things we not speak of prevail.

True, I should have said most girls. Not all. Some girls don't want to be bored.  But for others, there's nothing like a good, banal, boring from a man who can bore like a true professional.

I have to say, I am laughing out loud at this exchange.

What concerns me is the fact that he refers to it as “ boring”. I don’t think he means it as something that occupies his time, more so creating a hole where one doesn’t exist. To each their own.  More power to him.

I took it as entering an already existing hole. To paraphrase Soul Asylum, "Wrong way down a one-way hole". But that's just me.

It could refer to the enlarging of an existing, but tight, passageway.

That’s mainly how I meant it but I obviously didn’t convey with any clarity. 

I suppose my post comes off as a woman potentially saying “No Mikesez, That’s my belly button!”
