At my Grandads Local Pub up in Scotland a guy downed an entire bottle of Whiskey on a Β£10 bet

guess what happened

2018-03-23 08:54:47 UTC  

He threw it all back up or he died

he dropped dead on the spot

2018-03-23 08:55:29 UTC  

Yeah, it's pretty braindead to think you should chug a bottle of straight alcohol

his heart stopped

2018-03-23 08:56:48 UTC  

He probably had underlying heart issues

but he won Β£10

When I was younger and went through a phase of drinking a lot often, I used to drink 3/4 of a 30oz bottle of something like Vodka.

2018-03-23 08:58:21 UTC  

But it took me a few hours to go through that

I have a drinking buddy she's Russian I'm Scottish

there's definitely something in it

2018-03-23 08:59:28 UTC

only woman I know that that can drink me under the table

but my Nepali missus. give her 1 glass of wine and and she's pissed

Isn't this factually incorrect? I've heard Sargon claim over and over again that wealth inequality has been dramatically on decline world wide because of Capitalism based on the book he read by Steven Pinker, right?

Yes, it's false.

2018-03-23 09:03:14 UTC  

There's more to it

2018-03-23 09:03:30 UTC  

>We have tens of thousands of people dying due to lack of access to proper healthcare
>hundreds of thousands of people dying due to lack of access to proper healthcare years ago

That doesn't apply in the UK

2018-03-23 09:03:40 UTC  

It's not entirely false, but it's the premises that's wrong.

2018-03-23 09:03:45 UTC  
2018-03-23 09:04:15 UTC  

Hmm

2018-03-23 09:04:21 UTC  

Yes, wealth inequality is the highest it's ever been. But that's saying the difference between a 1000 and 50000 is greater than the difference between 100 and 5000

Overall he's wrong but in the UK where Sargon is from we have Socialised Healthcare

2018-03-23 09:05:01 UTC  

tl;dr the wealth became more inequal simply because the rich got richer faster than the poor got richer. Everyone got richer, it's just the highest got it faster.

the US is a shithole, but it's the exception

2018-03-23 09:06:11 UTC  

sidenote - invest in gold and keep few gold bars in your posession - we're at hyperinflation race right now and dollar might just collapse within next 9 years

It's different here to the USA

2018-03-23 09:06:18 UTC  

@folk REEEEEEEEE!

2018-03-23 09:06:19 UTC  

it's the only western country where things regress

2018-03-23 09:06:45 UTC  

"Please don't let anyone prove me wrong!"

2018-03-23 09:07:01 UTC  

I'm actually curious what the idea behind investing in gold to avoid a monetary crash is.

2018-03-23 09:07:10 UTC  

the US is the most free country on earth, don't you remember that huge discussion we had the other day where someone told us his opinion and we all just accepted it as fact?

People who tweet that sort of thing normally haven't visited the UK
