I'm reading this article about how bartenders pour less liquor into taller, skinnier glasses, and the angle on it is: "If you want to watch what you drink, get a tall skinny glass." Certainly not the most harmful kind of media bias in the world, but it's funny how the media focuses on the health-conscious side of things as opposed to the getting-drunk-cheaper side of things, even when most people are going to be thinking, "Whoa! I'm gonna ask for my next Long Island in a pan!" Or at least, that's what I was thinking.
Long Island Iced Tea, by the way, has become my default drink, since it's hard to beat on the alcohol per dollar measure. So drinks the utilitarian.

The true utilitarian drinks the vodka from the liquor store next door to me. Under 7 bucks a litre. Cashback!
Yikes! is that vodka safe, Aidan? If so... what kind is it?
the _true_ utilitarian drinks boxed wine, like Franzia, which is often the greatest amount of alcohol per dollar.
Yeah, I like Franzia.
Gotta admit, I'm the opposite on this. I prefer weaker drinks so I can draw it out and not get drunk.
