Mugging and Alcohol

It has been proven. Mugging is a close substitute for alcohol, both have generally similar effects on the human mind (thus, you can save all that money on drinking alcohol even though you're 18. use the money for computer entertainment instead). And mugging, addictive though it is, should be similarly banned for under-18s.

In mild amounts (BAC 0.03-0.12%), alchohol results in euphoria.
In mild amounts (8-12 hours a day), mugging results in euphoria, self-confidence, and a shorter attention span stemming from the mindset of "I'm too pro to mug this useless stuff"

In larger amounts (BAC 0.09-0.25%), alcohol results in excitement, sleepy, blurred vision, trouble with understanding and remembering things. Ditto for mugging (12-16 hours / day)

In large amounts (BAC 0.18-0.30%), alcohol results in confusion, dizziness, and makes people highly emotional and less sensitive to pain.
In large amounts (16-20 hours / day), mugging results in similar effects, with clear symptoms such as highly emotional nicknames (Argh! WTO! I HAVEN'T FINISHED MUGGING CHEM AND IT'S TOMORROW MORNING!). Being less sensitive to pain goes without speaking. After 16-20 hours of trying to tahan mugging, the body loses its pain sensitivity. Natural survival mechanism.

In extreme amounts (BAC 0.25-0.40%), alcohol results in unresponsiveness, stupor, and possible vomiting.
In extreme amounts (>20 hours a day), mugging results in similar symptoms, including a rather high tendency to regurgitate during examinations.

If there’s no alcohol in MUG Root Beer, why else do they call it beer?
