Hard News: Party on, dudes, in reply to Russell Brown,
+1 very much
Guys, seriously, I know nothing.

Hard News: Party on, dudes, in reply to Bart Janssen,
Yeah right, pretend that there are things you won't say.
Oh Bart. Pretending you don't know there are things I'm not saying because they're even worse.

But then, I would not want to cast aspersions on Hadyn’s excellent attributes.
Heh. Now, that reminds me of a story I can't tell...

Hard News: Party on, dudes, in reply to Russell Brown,
But ... how can some "recognise" you from Public Address? Your awesome syntax?
To be fair we have had a couple of conversations about Megan's... "attributes".

Up Front: Or It's Who We're Drinking With..., in reply to Kumara Republic,
Binge drinking is a symptom of underlying factors, rather than a problem in itself.
Yeah, which is the focus of the research. I wonder (and this is a terribly cynical thing to say) if there was funding for alcohol research, but not sexuality research...

Hadyn in particular. It's pretty much one of my favourite stories ever, but he gets this funny look on his face when I tell it....
It's okay, I still have his PA login details...

Can I tell my favourite PAS story now? ;)
Are you asking permission of Hadyn in particular, or more generally? Because if the latter, yes. And if the former, yes.

Up Front: Or It's Who We're Drinking With..., in reply to Eric Crampton,
Note that most of this lit calls binge drinking 5+ standard drinks in a single session. Or about two pints of decent beer.
Yeah, as a friend put it on Twitter yesterday, their 'binge' is our 'dinner'. Which can be hugely problematic as far as drawing meaningful conclusions goes. But when you look at the quotes, the subjects themselves are clearly talking about 'drinking to excess', getting completely trashed.
And yes:
The mental health theme identified co-morbid mental health conditions, prominently anxiety, depression, and self-harming behaviours, as interacting and potentially increasing binge-drinking in more-than-one-gender attracted young people.

(My bad, it should be Mortgage Slag)
It's always referred to as the Mortgage Slut thread, which means that I was wrong originally. My bad.

Hard News: Party on, dudes, in reply to David Cormack,
I got torn a new one by Emma, Danielle et al. And rightly so.
I have to confess that a) I don't remember this at all, and b) I'm quite tempted to go look now. But I won't.
