5 drinks gets you nowhere. You need at least 8 for any of the drinks to be worth it.
Returns diminish (but are still positive!) after 12 and become negative after 16.

12? Shirley you jest. Thats more than a 1/5th.
I decided after returning from vacation to see what would happen if I didn't drink at all for a while, even on weekends. Its been two weeks now and I still have not gotten that bump in lucidity people claim occurs. Its been an interesting experiment so far, but whats this health difference all these assholes preach about? I feel no difference at all.
I have learned one thing - having a few beers is pointless. Now that I've had extended abstinence against which to guage the feeling I'd get if I had that one solid drink/big glass of wine or couple beers I might have on any given night, I realize that I wasn't getting any buzz at all from that half-assed occasional workweek drinking.
My early new years resolution is to concentrate on more social occasion binge drinking and give up the occasional beer or drink during the week.
