It'd be barbaric otherwise

[-] DaleGribble88@programming.dev 30 points 6 days ago

I mean, no one is going to do calculus sober

[-] YellowParenti@lemmy.wtf 33 points 6 days ago

I actually derive better after a few drinks!

[-] elephantium@lemmy.world 13 points 5 days ago

Never drink and derive.

Did you know that 1 in 5 car crashes involve a drunk driver? That means that in 4 out of 5 crashes, everyone is completely sober! It is way safer to drive while intoxicated! Pour yourself another cup, it's the only way to be responsible.

This message does not apply to hard liquors.

I’m very curious as to why, but I won’t argue.

[-] crunchy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 54 points 6 days ago

They have a resealable top. The library is most likely concerned about spills. Most of them have a no cans policy.

[-] chocrates@piefed.world 15 points 6 days ago

Beer dries sticky, does hard liquor dry out clean? It's mostly water and alcohol so it might be better

[-] leftascenter@jlai.lu 10 points 5 days ago

Grain Vodka is the only one that leaves no traces. I knew a bartender who would clean his customer's glasses with vodka when he saw they were dirty.

Generally relatively clean, though flavored liquors may contain sugar and most liqueurs do.

[-] Phoenix3875@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago

Duh, obviously you need hard liquor for hard study. It's pretty hard.

[-] nickiwest@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago

I assumed it's because the tenured faculty come in to do their research with a pocket flask.

[-] lugal@sopuli.xyz 5 points 5 days ago

Don't mess with the hard liquor lobby. If you know, you know

Why doesn't this ban apply to hard liqours? Why am I allowed to trip vodka in the library?

[-] postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago

Im guessing literature professors.

[-] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 28 points 5 days ago

Study shots it is then, got it.

[-] qwertyasdf@feddit.uk 31 points 5 days ago

So you can't crack a cold one to relax but getting shitfaced is absolutely fine?

Where do I sign up?

[-] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 13 points 5 days ago

The cracking bit is the issue, they don’t want a beer volcano. Vodka isn’t carbonated.

[-] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 days ago

Vodka isn’t carbonated.

Usually at least. Big Clive did put some in the sodastream https://youtube.com/watch?v=8kK-QUjOl0Q

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 32 points 5 days ago

Well so long as I can have my study whiskey

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 13 points 5 days ago

this seems more about protecting the books from the way people crack their drinks open.

[-] ieatpwns@lemmy.world 23 points 6 days ago

It’s not the booze that’s banned it’s the can

[-] nycki 6 points 5 days ago

if that were the case they could just write "no canned beverages" or "no drinks without resealable lids" etc. there's no reason to bring booze into it at all. so if that was their intent then this is really poor communication.

[-] dankm@lemmy.ca 3 points 5 days ago

I assume VT is like what I've read about the USA where people can't walk around outside with open alcohol.

Other canned drinks can just be brought out when you're leaving, but you need to try to conceal beer. That'd lead to unnecessary spills.

[-] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 21 points 6 days ago

So, they just don’t want drinks that make noise when you open them?

I had a 6 AM start microbiology lab. In order to get myself going, I brought a bottle of wine carefully poured into a bottle of Gatorade.

I fucking loved that class.

Also our TA was a smoke show.

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago

So the library leadership cut an exception for themselves, probably.

[-] Snapz@lemmy.world 9 points 5 days ago

Soak a dictionary in bud light the night before, then you just rip out a handful of pages at a time, boom. Now who is a degenerate failure and a worthless blemish on decent society, Grandma?

[-] Godric@lemmy.world 16 points 6 days ago

Fascists :(

[-] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

Rum Dingers are excellent study aides.

Never heard that particular slang but sounds like it's from the Twisted Teas brand

I misread this and immediately thought, “I wouldn’t go to the library without my study bear."

“You’ve got this, babe!”

[-] aesthelete@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

These people aren't your friends

[-] TwodogsFighting@lemdro.id 5 points 5 days ago

It's a plot against the Inebriati.

[-] kubica@fedia.io 6 points 6 days ago

What if I have a cola with vodka but I have it well served on a glass?

[-] lugal@sopuli.xyz 5 points 5 days ago

The library is a prison.
