    Sorry our country isn't "normal". Don't like it? GTFO.

    The entire US has a drinking age of 21. Canada is 20 I believe.

    All of the states implemented it from 18 years of age in order to cut down accidents and drunk driving fatalities. Statistics show that it has worked, so I'm fine with it.

    Are you with family? You can drink if you have a legal guardian present.

    hmmm lets see
    If your between 16 and 20 and you start to drink at noon, you'll be wasted by 5 pm and passed out by 9pm. Vomiting by midnoght You can't handle booze yet.

    Between 20 and 30 if you start before noon. You'll be wasted by 9pm and passed out by midnight. Your a young alkie going to college parties with your buddies, you got it going on

    Between 30 and 40 if you drink after noon. Your being social at happy hour with friends and co-workers, If you drink alone to get drunk, your an alkie and need to think about rehab.

    Over 40 and you drink after noon before 5pm your a closet alkie. After 5pm happy houir with friends, your chilling. Alone your a drunk.

    Those are my views of drinking, may not apply to all people

    Don't drink after 8.

    One over the eight is too much for most people.

    agreed, unless your "co workers" are unemployed.
