This sketch is 100% true... during college before any big test I’d drink a mikes hard lemonade and sip a second while taking the test online.... I made near perfect scores, where as I second guessed myself so much normally that I’d end up at around an 82 with out it. One time I just drank the second to quickly and finished it before the test.... I failed that single test hahaha

This was a trait of the character Sam Vines from the Discworld books. Except he kept getting the amount wrong so he was always either pessimistic towards most things (from not drinking enough) or totally drunk.
i literally watched this earlier, got ever so slightly drink, and finally wrote the script for my uni assignment that i've been procrastinating for 2 weeks.
You know this is actually true, but it is a very fine line, every person has slightly different tolerance so it is very hard to pinpoint the sweet spot. Drink too much and your effectivness declines, too little and there is no effect, but drink just enough and you are your perfect self without any downsides.
I remember being 17 and actually planning to drink wine everyday before going to school because everytime I had it, it made me more confident and relaxed. I might as well have been visited by the inebriatis and be running against the psychopath who leads my country right now
I find when I play poker, the sweet spot is exactly 1.5 drinks. I'm relaxed enough to make the big bets when necessary, but I'm still able to play at my best.

If you enjoyed these sketches I can't recommend highly enough the movie Another Round, starring Mads Mikkelsen - basically the same plot, but they are all high school teachers (but it gets very depressing) and has a beautiful ending!

The fact that David's character is carrying two filled wine glasses in a briefcase at the start is a nice subtle bit of absurdity.

This is the real reason why Boris thinks gathering for wine in the 10 Downing Street garden counts as work.
It was a meeting between society members lol
The drink ambushed him and was in cahoots with the birthday cake 😆 🤣
Haven't you ever been to the House of Commons? There are bars there, and they do a roaring trade
Unfortunately, Boris finished his second drink and ordered a third, one day in 2016.
The next day, the UK voted to leave the EU.
No. Boris was a member of a different secret society. The Inebrfarti. A society of over eaters slightly overweight and with bad digestion
Still amazing how he stored 2 filled glasses in that suitcase 🤣
It's much easier if you're a little wobbly
One filled glass and one very nearly filled glass
@@bobbodaskank I noticed this as well - an important detail!
The premise of this sketch has been turned into an entire movie - the new Danish movie Druk / Another Round with Mads Mikkelsen.
