If I personally kill a couple fifths of liquor a week, am I a drunk?
It's a waste of money to buy fifths. Half gallon (or 1.75 liter) is a better deal. If you can get by on two of those a week, then you're fine----err...your friend is, I mean.

Thank you. I'm stealing this for the next time my wife looks at me funny.

Know how I know I would like you in real life?

I'd say that is a lot. Are you a drunk? If you have to ask the question, you might want to get some professional advice.

Lol. 2-3 stiff drinks per night, every night, means you're an alcoholic.

That is why he came here

I used to have a huge problem drinking. A fifth a night was not enough and I would go through a 1.75 in 2 nights. I don't drink near that much any more.

Then just make one big one every night.

Drinking a lot will make all the girls wet. Well played.
Posted on 7/2/15 at 3:04 pm to Slippy
Kinda, yeah. That's a lot man.

2 fifths in a span of 7 days? I fricking hope not
7.5 oz a day doesn't seem like that much.

Being an alcoholic has nothing to do with how much of the stuff you drink, but rather if you need it to function and get through life.
Both of these factors have a high correlation with alcoholism.

The OP fails to ask a complete question. We would need to know how much beer and wine his friend drinks along with the liquor. As long as that is kept to a bottle of wine per night (or 4-6 beers) he ought to be alright.
Just kidding. That along with all the liquor is excessive. It could lead to health problems. He should skip a night now and then to avoid the adverse effects. But wait until after the holiday weekend for the detox.

No. What he should do is quit drinking daily. Stay sober 5 nights a week. Then finish the 2 fifths in 2 days.

This. Also if you purchase a case most places will give you an added discount. Not like it's going to expire on you.
I used to drink a handle every three days for about two years solid, so buying by the case was the best option.

Whooahooa. Slow down there with slinging these labels around all willy nilly. You're gonna kill somebody's buzz.
