Drinking 10 beers. 3 cigarettes is nothing. People smoke everyday for years and arnt drastically affected. If you drink everyday it doesn't take to long before your liver and health start to fail

Drinking because if you go out to drive you could get in an accident and get killed and kill others.
Not only that, you would get arrested or thrown in jail if you survived.
No medical evidence, just common sense.

They are both bad but smoking 10 cigarettes in 2 hours will not kill you. If you are small (like 80 pounds) and drink those 10 beers on an empty stomach, it could kill you. You can drive no matter how many cigarettes you smoke. That is not the same with drinking.

depends which u value more ur liver or ur lungs or u could just do both so neither feels left out

Beer definitely. That much alcohol in that short a time could kill you.

To me, this question is like comparing apples and oranges. Where both fruit are good for you, each have different benefits. Smoking and drinking are both bad for you but they each have different problems that they create for you.Smoking in the long run can cause major problems such as Cancer, Emphysema,skin to dehydrate,bad breath,over-all bad health.Drinking causes a person to have bad judgment,slow reaction,slow or no thinking,serosis(sp?)of the liver,bad driving which results in death to yourself and others,acting stupid, etc,etc...Anyone drinking 10 beers in 2 hours time doesn't have good judgment anyway.But, anyone smoking, after all the facts brought out about smoking, doesn't have good judgment either.
