How to Encourage Binge Drinking
This story from the Telegraph shows how those in charge of the nanny state haven’t a clue.
The “app”, which measures drinks in alcoholic units, has sparked something of a craze among drinkers to get the highest score.
The NHS drinks tracker was launched at the start of December and is designed to help people avoid overindulging.
It works by converting drinks into units to show drinkers when they have gone over the recommended daily limit.
But within days of the tracker being released it was being described on the internet as an “awesome game” and users were boasting about trying to beat their “top score”.
If you produce a drink-o-meter for an iPhone, you could have bet your life that people will attempt to create a record score. Someone should be fired for being stupid. But I doubt they will be.
