minus-squareassassin_aragorn@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-28 months agoSaw a great joke on TikTok the other day: Father: “Okay, why did you call me to school?” Principal: “Your son was found smashing pumpkins.” Father: “What? What’s the big deal? Bring him here, I want to speak to him.” Principal: “Alright, bring him in.” Father: “What? This isn’t my son.” Other Student: “Nah, I’m Pumpkins.”
minus-squarealcoholicorn@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1·8 months agoDon’t you want your dad to have a little fun once in awhile? Also quit spying on us, it’s creepy.
minus-squareGreenPlasticSushiGrass@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up5arrow-down2·8 months agoA fifth is 750 mL, a pint is 200 mL, and a half pint is 100 mL. I always assumed it was no coincidence that the amounts in mL are so even, but maybe I’m wrong.
minus-squareTurtleTourParty@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·8 months agoA US gallon is 3.785L which makes a fifth 757 ml. A pint is 1/8 gallon so ~473 ml. An imperial gallon is 4.54609L which makes a fifth 909ml and a pint 568ml. If your bartender is giving you 200ml pints you’re really getting ripped off.
minus-squareEmpricorn@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-28 months agoA fifth is 750ml!? There’s no way that’s true. So when someone says they drank a fifth, they drank 750ml of ~*40% alcohol!?? That is wild… Sorry, edited.
minus-squareBgugi@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·8 months agoMost things that are sold in a fifth are 80 proof, which is actually 40%
minus-squareViking_Hippie@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·8 months agoQuarts and forties too. And smoots.

It also comes in my dad :(
Hi it’s me, Liquor.
