  6. Now i have my own maths for pints

    1 pint = +1 intoxication
    So pints number 1 -> 3 = +1 intoxication per pint

    At pint 4 -> 7, each pint is the equivalent of +1.5 intoxication

    So if you drink 7 pints that (1 x 3) + (1.5 x 4) which is +9 intoxication.

    All pints after pint 7 are equivalent to +2 intoxication

    Now if you eat 1 sunday roast between pints 3 and 4 you get a -2 intoxication effect

    every cigarette equals +.25 intoxication regardless of which pint number your on.

    So if billy has 3 pints of Guinness then a lovely sunday roast then goes and has another 6 pints. Over the course of the night billy smokes 8 cigarettes. how intoxicated is billy?

    (1×3)-2 + (1.5×4) + (2×2) + (.25×8) =
    +12 intoxication

  10. – Cúpla scoopíní – a couple of pints
    – Ag scoopíníeacht – having pints.

    Would have made those repetitive, ordinary Irish postcards I did for my junior cert a lot more interesting.

  11. What about a lock a pints? A melee of pints? A clatter , a hape, a boatload/shedload? A ganseyload? These are pints too!

  12. After that, we need to go to the next unit – the scoop.

    * scoop: a day’s worth of drinking
    * couple of scoops: a solid day and night’s worth of drinking
    * few scoops: a multi-day session of drinks

  13. As someone who did not only higher level maths, but applied maths and physics higher level too….

    I can confirm this is completely accurate.
