    When do kids in the US go to university, because I would have thought that would be the main time for it. Away from your parents for the first time, eventually having your own accommodation for the first time.

    Although maybe the fact in the US drinking isn’t allowed until 21 would have some effect, because I’m pretty sure that alcohol was initially what made me so attractive.
