        I disagree in principle as i am biased against alcoholism, but yeah. Limits of tolerance aren’t the same for everyone.

          George Burns supposedly drank a bottle of scotch every day until he died and chain-smoked cigars. He died at 101 doing things that have killed people younger than 50.

          Some people have bodies that can handle anything the owner wishes to throw at themselves. See also: Keith Richards, age 80.
