    The world records thing started as a way to settle bets in bars, meaning they stayed in the bars longer and drank more Guinness. So that makes sense. Similarly, the Michelin guide was something to make the idea of driving more attractive by giving tourists dining information.

          Easy. I’ll down one now.

          Ugh. I’ll wait a bit before the next one.

          Fact: it’s really hard to down a Guinness. I tried it once. Never again.

            Weird, I’ve never thought so. People say it’s so thick and heavy and you can just drink one or whatever, but I find it more filling to drink lager. It is ackshually more calories in a standard lager than in a Guinness, or so I heard. Feel free to fact check as I can’t be arsed.

                Guinness has a similar amount of calories as a typical American light beer
