Especially since one can boof a few ounces of vodka to get drunk (or so I've heard). Sharing blood with alcohol in it makes no sense. But kids are stupid, so who knows.
Right on, but even if you take a liter of blood at 0.4% BAC (potentially fatal) and give it to a sober person who nominally has five liters already, that dilutes it down to an equivalent BAC of 0.06%, right? They’d have to be a real lightweight to feel anything. And that’s a full liter, not the tiny hypos in the article photos.
I dunno. Another 300ml of vodka can’t be that much more expensive than the apparatus needed to perform a blood transfusion.
It's just like how all that panic of "Powdered alcohol" was absurdly bullshit!
All the news and the company's marketing was implying it was more concentrated by being "dried", like you would concentrate all sorts of things.
Except alcohol is a liquid, and cannot be "concentrated". The powdered alcohol was alcohol soaked into maltodextrin (or similar). By definition, it is less potent. In fact, if you make some and actually try to do things like spike a drink, or even just try to make normal drinks from it, it was flat out useless and worse than just sneaking in a flask to somewhere.
The media that IMO kinda "debunked" the whole thing was WIRED
