Students who use social media to show off their heavy drinking skills are more likely to suffer drinking-related injuries. Phwewww! Thank goodness that's cleared up.

Some very smart researcher at the University of Wisconsin conned  convinced a bunch of rubes peers to underwrite a study that connects online bragging about getting blasted, with getting hurt, and concluded: yes! --If you want to show off how gassed you can get, you may fall during a drunken outing. The full study is reported in the New York Daily News newspaper.

Other findings: if you drink and brag online about it, you are more likely to be at risk of being a problem drinker. Cheers to the researcher who got funding for this one. Man, the rest of us are in the wrong racket.
