Some people drink so rarely the difference is negligible and the convenience makes up for the price difference.

Had a few sips of ouzo this afternoon. Currently cleaning my car and the truck inside and out. Wiping off my motorcycle, too.. but don't think I'm gonna carry on and clean either of the other cars today. But maybe a little - just not thoroughly. Van's not here so no cleaning that - Might be "sold," - my friend's breaking up with his long term gf and wants to buy it to live in while he's working a bit far from home. Given the whole scenario, I'll accept payments on it since his job pays fat coin and he can pay it off pretty rapidly.

Having 3 bottle of leffe blonde

On the Internet it says a 330ml bottle of leffe is 6.6 percent at 2.2 units. Yet on the bottles I am having now it says 2.0 units at 6.3 percent abv :?

I'd trust the label. Internet could be wrong or for a different product sold elsewhere or something.

Very few.

It’s mostly financially irresponsible people who seek convenience products so they don’t have to do any work. The same type of people that order Uber eats or door dash delivery and turn a $12 meal into a $22 meal because they’re too lazy to buy groceries and cook for $4 Or go pick up their own junk food.

The only time it makes sense To Me is when you’re taking drinks to go to the beach and it’s way more convenient to carry a few cans down ~500 stairs than a bottle and mix and glasses etc. But otherwise it’s just such a waste of money And packaging/transportation pollution etc.

Convenience products Should be for people who Need them due to extremely busy lives and time constraints, as well as those who earn so much money it doesn’t make financial sense to always spend time preparing your own food and drinks. But mostly they’re bought by people who just don’t feel like doing any work - and then they keep themselves poor for it, too.

Some people told me last that me entering a club or bar on my own is "Weirdo behaviour'

They even said its quite pedophile behaviour to do that. Entering a children's playground is behaving like a pedo but a bar/nightclub? I don't quite get that logic really

Maybe some people might view it as weird behaviour.

Maybe but I wouldn't think twice about it if I saw someone on their own in a pub or club
