From the files of the barroom ethnographer: these two boozy buddies seem to have found the blissful side of ignorance. Scorn would hardly mask our envy.
"I have always lived violently, drunk hugely, eaten too much or not at all, slept around the clock or missed two nights of sleeping, worked too hard and too long in glory, or slobbed for a time in utter laziness. I've lifted, pulled, chopped, climbed, made love with joy and taken my hangovers as a consequence, not as a punishment."
Steinbeck
Amen.
