It’s not a 1:1 comparison is the thing. A DUI implies you can still get into the car and start it, so it’s like you’re bragging about only doing half the job. You haven’t passed out at the bar and your friends stack empties on your head 15 high. (I’ve seen the Welsh do this at 10am ahead of a WC qualifier that started 10 hours later)
I’ve seen both of y’all get sloppy, UK and WI/MN. The Brits, but especially the Scots, do drink more that you statistically, and are just better at it.
Kentucky hill folk out drink most of the world by quiet a bit. The USA as a whole is kinda shit at drinking. But we have some pockets that i question if they have blood or booze running though em.
And they’re descended from some pockets of Scotland and Ireland that never slowed down.
But for real, there parts of the world that get slooooooooooppy. Drunks stumbling down the street at 9am in major cities type stuff drinking corn hooch in southern African countries. A lot made at home in Eastern Europe, who already ranks high. But they hold theor booze better, too.
Finland has a term specifically for feeling antisocial and not wanting to go out so you can get drunk at home alone - underwear drunk.
At some point, pissing contests lose the nuance or ick or charm of what makes alcohol-fueled cultures like that.
