If you’d like to get drunk faster — lose weight. People who undergo gastric bypass surgery get drunk quicker and take longer to get sober. The study (conducted by researchers at Stanford University) found that the procedure, which is increasingly common in the fight against obesity, heightened the effects of alcohol.

Police said that a private garbage truck’s drunk driver lost control of
his massive rig and slammed into several cars, a tree, and a Brooklyn
resident’s front gate on Saturday. 40-year-old Anthony Castaldo was
in a drunken stupor while driving down 60th St. between 19th and 20th
avenues in Borough Park about 5:20 a.m. when he somehow lost control
of the wheel. The 64,000-pound truck crushed eight parked vehicles —
knocking them around like Matchbox cars — before slamming into a
tree and coming to a stop in someone’s front yard, steps from the
stoop. Castaldo climbed out of his truck and ran off, but was quickly
arrested by police. One of the cops injured his elbow and hand during
the pursuit. Police charged Castaldo with resisting arrest, drunken
and reckless driving, and leaving the scene of an
accident. https://goo.gl/1YhwDN
