I believe he is making a joke regarding the practice of consuming drugs via intravenous injections, also commonly known as “shooting up.” The precipice of the joke appears to be the expectation that when one “takes neither and shows up drunk”, and the twist is that “rather than showing up drunk he’s doing hard drugs such as heroin, cocaine, or even methamphetamine or other commonly shot drugs” wherein lies the humor. Though that is simply my interpretation, and perhaps the original poster will be so kind as to elucidate, we shall see.
You don’t typically shoot up meth or cocaine. Coke is usually snorted, meth is usually snorted or smoked, crack is usually smoked. Heroin is the only one that is typically shot up.
You can shoot up meth and coke, but it’s not the go-to method since it’s harder (and needles can be difficult to source). It’s usually only used by the hardest users, because they’ve become too tolerant for other methods to get them high.
You’d be surprised, people do indeed shoot coke or meth. They’ve also been known to use sprite when they didn’t have water, which is actually crazier when you think about it.
when you talk about it in relation to a substance that inebriates you, someone is gunna not think “oh they are talking about insulin” and more so “are they talking about drugs?”
I can think of situations when I would drink beer on a cold beach, I cannot think of any situations where I would want to drink a Mexican lager while lounging in the sand on a cold beach.
They lean and spin but don’t fall over (until the angle is extreme). Flat bottomed decanters require significantly smaller angles before tipping (depending on the contents of the decanter as well as how wide the base is).
I’ve never been in a sailboat, but I can confirm from experience that the rounded bottom decanters are more challenging to tip than most others I’ve handled.
Yeah what I mean is for me it doesn’t really matter, I am not going to break a bottle, and even if I accidentally did (not really sure how at the beach in soft sand) I would clean up the glass pieces. Broken bottles at the beach are left by assholes, not by accident.
You can already stick a bottle in the sand on the beach, though.
Also don’t take glass to the beach, take cans.
Take neither; show up drunk as FUCK.
Bring yo needles!
Okay I’m here. What now?
Sunscreen, maybe?
don’t need sunscreen if you go at night
Raise hell!
Username made me chortle
wtf
What? If you’re not bringing yo beer, bring yo needles at least. It’s the beach.
Hell yeah! Where all my New Jerseyans at?
Broken glass, needles, now I gotta watch Wristcutters again
what the hell are you talking about dude?

Or they’re just saying something that’d be even worse than broken glass to step on.
That’s too sensible. If the explanation doesn’t involve the late Queen I don’t want to hear it

A lot of people like to take drugs on the beach and discard the needles in the sand to the point the beach is more needle than sand.
Depends on your location. You at Wildwood? Lol
Estradiol Valerate?
NJ has hypo needles on the beach.
ew
Diabetes?

Eeza joke. (Or a distraction from Lemmy’s user base’s taste for hard drugs.)
They are referring to when New Jersey had a huge problem with needles washing up on the beaches back in the 90s.
oh im canadian so i don’t get that.
how about you don’t need to drink, and drinking while outside in the sun further accelerates dehydration.
I find your disdain for my culture borderline racism. Think about your hurtful words before you speak them. Now let’s have a drink and be friends. :)
huh. how is that racism. just drink water at the beach mate its better for you.
Water at the beach is salty.
So make pasta!
just bring a desalination plant
(My) Humour isn’t for everyone.
But isn’t the thin metal equally as dangerous to slice your foot on?
Yeah but if you drop your can on a random rock it won’t fling metal shards around everywhere
My Stick grenade does.
But only cases! Never 6-packs.
For our sea turtle bros, you’re obligated to go hard.
The brewery I like has solid turtle proof six pack connectors
Ah! Well, for… tradition then, I suppose.
Who the hell wants to put their cold beer in the hot sand anyway??
You guys have hot sand? - British person

Right? This is less a bottle you can stick in the sand, and more like a bottle you can’t sit anywhere else.
there is one other place it can sit :3
The point of the post is you can, though.
But glass is made from sand, I’m just returning it to where it came from!!!
I like this design for decanters. Apparently, for those, they’re meant to resist tipping on a sailboat.
Something like this:
how?
They lean and spin but don’t fall over (until the angle is extreme). Flat bottomed decanters require significantly smaller angles before tipping (depending on the contents of the decanter as well as how wide the base is).

Seems like a big wide base would be safer.
Probably, but way less neat. Also takes more space in storage.
I’m having a hard time seeing how you’re not seeing how.
Take flasks.
Take wooden barrels.
Take sheep bladders
For me it doesn’t really matter, glass or cans, just take whatever you brought back home or to a trash/recycle can
Glass is just bad because if it breaks it can be impossible to see in sand or water.

Glass bottles accidentally break all the time.
Super pretty decades or centuries later tho
You can stick tall cans in the sand
