Challenge accepted.

I'm in Santa Fe, only a mile and a half above sea level. Wanna go lower in altitude? Guess I'll drink double. And since you invited me, you're paying, yes?

I don't think that's actually a thing, I'm at 600 ft above sea level, and I would drink you under the table.

I’ve never been at high altitudes. Do you get drunk faster or just get nauseated/tired more easily?

[–] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

I don't think so, but above 6,000 feet oxygen deprivation shows effects. It won't effect alcohol metabolism. The high plateau folks are just stroking themselves off, they can't outdrink anyone because of their altitude.

Yup, Santa Fe is at 7000ft. At those altitudes, a single drink is worth about 2, and you sober up slower. 4 beers is considered a long night of drinking, and must be done with water breaks and food.
