So you're saying don't even bother because the odds of success are low? And learning the hard way could be killing himself or someone else. It's worth a shot. If he won't listen, there may not be much else you can do, but it would be irresponsible not to try IMO.Nah, saying something to him would be pointless, he won't hear you. Let him learn the hard way. Just don't get in the car with him.
Drunk drivers suck !
edit: Having the slightest buzz is considered legally drunk, in NC anyways.
Agreed. Plus, how bad would you feel if you decided not to say something, and then he ended up hurting himself or someone else?If he won't listen, there may not be much else you can do, but it would be irresponsible not to try IMO.
If he's old enough to drink, then he has no excuse for not knowing better. Almost 100% of the time confronting someone who has a drinking problem is pointless. They just will not listen or will become confrontational. Knocking back 6-7pints in a 2 hour period is a pretty good indicator of a problem.So you're saying don't even bother because the odds of success are low?

First of all, I'm a lightweight drinker [insert Asian joke here]. So I couldn't have 6-7 pints at one sitting period.If he's old enough to drink, then he has no excuse for not knowing better.

You just cannot help someone who doesn't want it.
While your intentions are admirable, you are not responsible for his actions.bike is a "vehicle" in the CA Vehicle code. you can get a DUI ticket for riding over the limit.
you can't stop him, but you can have the brass to say something. there will be a bit less blood on your hands when the shiz goes down if you at least speak your mind.
I know I am subject to the same laws, but several things: it is extremely unlikely I will hurt anyone but myself on a bicycle, it is extremely unlikely I will get pulled over for DUI on a bicycle, exercising sobers you up, and that I don't really drink that much.bike is a "vehicle" in the CA Vehicle code. you can get a DUI ticket for riding over the limit.

dammit, can't you let me spook sanJunioro for a few minutesWhile your intentions are admirable, you are not responsible for his actions.
btw - you say he is your friend, so much so that you will go behind his back and spill his drama on the web, but you won't man-up and call him on this to his face? think about it.
Interesting how you claim to confront random strangers for their transgressions, however subjective and/or petty, yet you're too big a gash to speak directly to a friend. Maybe you could text him so you're eballs are engaged.
+1. Do something, anything. Take action before something bad happens. To anyone. I am disappointedthat you havent already spoke up. You seem fairly strong and self assured...stop that fvck before he kills someone.
You got some eballs yourself. And no complaining when I return the favor....Interesting how you claim to confront random strangers for their transgressions, however subjective and/or petty, yet you're too big a gash to speak directly to a friend.

He's quarter Irish. Probably that's drinking a pepsi to him.6-7 pints? That's quite a lot of beer. He must have been pretty smashed. Especially if he is Asian.
absolutely. besides, IMO 6-7 pints over two hours isn't necessarily a drinking problem, but it might become one. and if you talk to him, what's the worst that could happen, he's mad at you? aw, widdle boozer got him feewings hurt.stop that fvck before he kills someone.
I love how there's an ad for electric bikes on it. I call 'em DUIcycles at the shop
