don't lose your standards by hojusaram

The new guidelines suggest "two standard drinks or less in any one day". This would, of course, be of great amusement to the average Korean - unless the definition of "standard drink" was amended to include several bottles of soju with beer chasers.....

Anyway, despite the advice being outdated, I like their shirt. (How often do you see stick figures puking their guts out?) I'm sure it will be of great novelty value in Korea. If they release shirts for the new guidelines I'll try and track one down.
