Zalder:
Let's not go down the "dude, I can so drink way more than that!" road.
ReindeerFlotilla:
Agreed with Zalder. If we assume the pint on the couch is the same she had at COD, then she's either had a fifth and two pints, two fifths and pint, or one pint plus maybe a fifth and maybe another pint pluse however much of the fifth she found in her bed. The unkowns are whether the large bottle in today's is a fifth or a pint and how much is left in the the bottle from the morning, if anything.
That's a lot of booze in a part of a day.
Also, five or six fifths in a short period is probably in the LD75 range. It would kill most people. So, um cool that you aren't dead, but that's not really a standard people should aspire to. I can't think of any practical day-to-day need for that level of alcohol tolerance. Those little numbers are the population of animals exposed who died. LD50 means Lethal Dose to 50%. so 50% exposed, die. LD75 is obviously 75%. They test this by repeatedly exposing animals to those level and count how many are dead, after.
Unless you weigh about 1000 pounds, you've pushed the LD75 and lived. You played Russian roulette with 4 chambers loaded and lived. That's as much luck as it is tolerance.

Given the state of both Faye and Pintsize, and his couch, I'm guessing Marten's thinking she shouldn't be left unsupervised, which indicates to me he isn't planning on a hospital trip, at least not yet.
Or he plans to go with her for support.
Either way.
dielicious:
Okay, when i saw the comic the last thing that came to my mind was an hospital.
I'm seeing thinks like Marty taking care of Faye, when she woke up and do a move on him.
But you guys are probably right.

Alirght, I'm a teetotaler so...what's a fifth in measurement terms? A fifth of the bottle?
