Also what an incredibly suspicious question.

Also how drunk are we talking about? Legal, scientific, and connotation are all different.

[TD1]

Depends on your weight.

"Typical male" would include a set typical weight.

Also what an incredibly suspicious question.

No suspicious motivation. I just don't intend to make a practical test of the matter, so a theoretical knowledge will do.

I don't follow what you mean by legal, scientific and connotation, but drunk enough to be noticeably drunk.

[My Name is Immaterial]

If you've never had alcohol before, how much would it take the typical male to get drunk?

This website supposedly simulates what being drunk is like.

My first time I was about 22, and got horrendously sick all the next day over 6 Mike's hard green teas. Not even sure I had all 6. I was a rail-like 150 pounds back then, and didn't eat with it. Should have had more water, but mainly less "beer".

Edit: Your actual question: One beer would probably be enough, at two there'd be a clear effect.

I'm thinking of whether or not to picked up DOOM 2016 next time I'm at Gamestop or whatever have you(filthy console peasant i know )

About twenty bucks pre-owned. Mainly asking for validation of my feelings for wanting it. Have watched both ManyATrueNerd and Nerdcubed play it and looked like something fun. plus i mean. my dad might like it

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Just about everybody seems to like it. If your dad is a classic Doom fan he'll probably like it, since for once Id did something right and focused on bringing the feel of brutality and metal to modern standards instead of the bullshit reboot style of Doom 3.

[Iceblaster]

Yeah, he's a classic doom fan. He actually played doom 3 and was like 'it's a good game. just it doesn't feel like a doom game.' Though it was the BFG edition doom 3, so it was a bit better, IE flashlight and stuff.

[Yoink]

If you don't eat then one or two can easily bugger you.

Always drink on a full stomach.

Well, a night out is far cheaper if you "forget" to eat first.

Ok I guess I have to ask... even though this is a dumb question that will lose me respect.

So in Friday Night at Freddy

How the world are they able to charge less than minimum wage for a 6 hour graveyard shift?

Or is this a case of "the writer/developer just put in a big number but didn't consider the implication"?

Probably just the second option.

They don't. The federal government takes a part of that up front. 15%, usually. Anyway, federal minimum wage was pretty low in the 90s, when the game is set, $4.25 in 91-95, $4.75 in 96, and $5.15 from 97 to 06.

You can read more about the theories surrounding the paycheck here.

[Neonivek]

My only other guess, because times aren't listed, is that they really are underpaying you.

I mean... it isn't like they would be the ONLY job to pay you less than the time you work. I mean TYPICALLY it is not paying you for overtime...

[My Name is Immaterial]

It's possible that Freddy Fazbear's Pizza could legally be paying Mike at a rate that is clearly lower than the federal and state minimum wages today. The U.S. Department of Labor allows some categories of workers to be paid less than the minimum wage, to try and avoid hindering their employ-ability. Examples include young workers under 20, full-time students working in certain sectors, and those with physical or mental disabilities.

None of those are the case because you didn't receive a check at the end that had how much you were paid... It was an advertisement in a newspaper, meaning that was the going rate. In other words that is an instance where the Wiki's theory is flat out wrong (and in a silly way).

As I said the best explanation, if it wasn't a mistake, is that they aren't paying you enough. I mean it isn't like they aren't breaking several laws. It just never occurred to me that they could be underpaying you on purpose.

I'm not sure if I should post in Terraria thread, but I want to. Will it count as necro-post?
