Frankly, speed drinking always seemed sickening (if not suicidal) to me,
and I've done (more than) my share of drinking. True, one is chugging beer 
and not liquor (which would kill you by respiratory depression if the amount 
was as much as, say, a quart), but even so, the alcohol shock is likely to 
burn off the inner layer of your stomach and cause you to barf for hours. 
Not to mention having a stomach bulging with beer. Definitely more fun to watch 
than to do. I suppose everybody's got to find some way to impress whoever 
it is they have to impress.
