Dicks and wowsers

So, some stupid dick drinks absinthe straight and nearly dies from alcohol poisoning, and suddenly we have the wowsers demanding a national ban (they've already had it pulled from the shelves in Southland - which is another reason to hate local body liquor monopolies). The fact that this is not how you're meant to drink absinthe, or indeed, that a 17-year old should never have been drinking it in the first place simply seems to escape them.
