Like I bet if alcohol was something you had to snort, or just like a pill you take, I think a lot of people might not dig it as much.

    I’m pretty sure you don’t understand the science involved. “Alcohol” must be a beverage. There’s no other way to take that particular drug.

    e: OK geniuses… make some powdered EtOH. I’d love to see it and I’ll duplicate your efforts if you’re successful.

    e2: oh, some of these brave souls must be injecting it. Please be careful with dosage.

      Bro, this is clearly a fantasy scenario where we have a non-liquid substance with the same effects as alcohol. No one’s asking you to make tequila fun dip for real.

      Look straight up, WAY up. That’s the whole point of the conversation going over your head.

      The question is NOT “Can we make more forms of alcohol?”

      It IS “Is alcohol’s high social acceptance strongly influenced by it being a beverage?”

          I mean, we could talk about the societal implications of grandmothers metamorphosing into bikes, if you want. Hey, it’s your hypothetical…
