I am American. Although not completely inaccurate, Most of us are not like that. It's just that the offended people are far more vocal about things.
True, true. I’m American, but I don’t drink, much less socially. Partially because I’m too young to do so (pffft, technicalities, amiright), but that doesn’t actually stop anyone.
True. I started making alcohol like mead and rum when I was 18 so I'm not really one to talk. Still, social drinking is pretty dumb. Your peers try to get you more drunk and bars overcharge significantly.
