Drinking

I tried to make another video of me drinking something strange from Japan, but I failed miserably. My drink of choice was Asahi beer. I know that it is not a strange drink, but what was unusual was all the variety of cans that you are able to buy.


The one that first caught my eye was the behemoth 2 liter variety (2 liters is about 5½US cans of beer).



After that I found the 1 liter



The 500ml



The 350ml (regular American size)



The 250ml (size of the small sodas served on airplanes, and cost 4£ on budget European airlines)



And the baby 125ml (size of a Mott's apple juice)



My goal was to finish them all, but I failed to add it all up and see that I was trying to drink 12 US sized beers in one go. I rarely drink here in Japan, so this was quite impossible from the get go. I did manage to get 3.sdfsfbmfdk liters done before 11:52 when everything went blank. I know it was 11:52 because I was having a few conversations with friends on the ol' internet chat and they all ended at 11:52. It was like looking at the broken clock in a movie showing exactly when the earthquake (or in my case, tsunami) struck.

It's like the drunk Japanese version of the Russian nesting doll...

HA! Who knew you were actually funny? Still, after 4 years of living overseas, you are the only friend that has visited me.
