    In many European countries the drinking age is 18 and in some the drinking age for beer and wine is 16. So we could be talking about as early as 2004.

      I was legally allowed to drink beer in 1985 with 16. I had my first mobile phone in 1997 or so.

      Yeah, fuck, I’m old.

      But I definitely had bar trivia discussions before I was online.

      Exactly. Our legal drinking age is 18, but we were binge drinking every Friday from the age of 15. Not one bartender gives a shit here. At least back in the day. That’s 2003-2004.
