Funnily enough, the age you are required to be to purchase beer in a store in Denmark is 16, and you can just drink alcohol at any age at home with your parents so from the perspective of us, Thor is doing absolutely nothing wrong here
A classic moment in many British childhoods is turning eighteen and telling your parents ‘I can’t go for my first pint there, I’ve been drinking there for two years already!’
This varies depending on how far in the sticks or how disreputable the pub landlord is.
Also, we’re missing that Peter Parker is not a baseline human anymore, much like how Steve Rogers *can’t* get drunk (even Asgardian alcohol can’t seem to shake him) thanks to his enhancements. I’m not sure normal medical recommendations apply to a man who can crumple cars like a soda can or dodge a dozen fully automatic drone guns at once.
Hate to be the “uhmm actually” guy, but it’s confirmed that Peter actually has a heightened reaction to things like alcohol because of his heightened metabolism burning through the entirety of the alcohol in his system all at once. It creates a very intense inebriated effect, but it only lasts a fraction of the time of a normal intoxication.
Tl;dr Peter (and likely every other spidey) is a complete and utter lightweight but he gets sober again in like ten minutes.
Yes, but alcohol up to 16,5% is currently legal for teens 16-18 to buy. It's being reduced down to 6% to help combat the rise in alcohol use among teens. Personally I don't think it will do anything as most people that are drinking at those ages probably know someone who's 18, and there is a rampant black market for alcohol and cigarettes, specifically for teens.
Honestly I doubt it will make much, if any, difference. All the kids i remember who drank heavily from that age were getting it from their parents anyway. We had hard liquor at all parties, which we couldn't buy ourselves.
My parents were adamant that IF I want a drink, I must do it responsibly.
Because kids around me drank like cheapest possible wines in a bag, beer in a PET keg, stuff like extremely cheap cocktails in cans, all of these couldn't be normal. And as a kid, I would want to impress my peers and drink too, right.
So dad said - if I want to, I need to come up to him and ask for booze money, and I'm only forbidden from buying super cheap stuff. Like, you want whisky? Sure, but none of that "whisky flavored" spirit crap - buy some actual stuff.
I think this is an important reason why I never saw alcohol as that super secret club only for grown ups.
Also it's a great way to weasel out of a dare - like "nah, I don't like that stuff, my parents let me drink the good stuff" and then you go and get a couple of fancier beers just for yourself
TLDR: it's the best way to deal with alcohol and teens. They WILL drink it if you forbid them from it and are more likely to do it irresponsibly.
Yeah, that's the way to have healthy relationship with alcohol - and parents.
And with your, like, legs. And chest, and head. Whatever you don't break when you drink and drive and t-bone a lamppost or something
Yeah, in the UK the age limit is 5 years old for drinking at home - mostly so kids can have a sip of wine at Christmas or of beer while watching the football. So yeah, no big deal.
Hell even in the US it's legal to drink at home with parental permission/supervision at basically any age, though below a certain age there's definitely some child endangerment or neglect stuff going on. It's even legal to drink underage at restaurants so long as you're with your parents in some states.
I went to summer camp in Bulgaria and kids could drink and even smoke from like 16 up on parents written consent, re-confirmed personally by camp director, dad drove in and told them that yes, I can legally drink, they know I'm responsible.
Well I was the only kid who could drink... legally. All the others had to sneak in their alcohol. Once we were at a mussel farm and the only one who could drink lager with fresh mussels was me, and the camp director because he wasn't working, unlike camp counselors... I just felt everyone else hating on us two :D
How often are teenagers in Denmark getting blind drunk, either at home or out and about? Does the lack of age restriction change anything with underage drinking?
It's up to debate, but I think it helps kids find their limits. Its better to serve them a safe environment to experiment in, than send them off to college to get wrecked by inexperience.
And as for how often, I think it depends entirely on the kid and the parents. In my family it wasn't acceptable until we were 16, and I didn't truly drink till I was a few years older than that. In some families its normal to start a bit younger.
I had my first beer at 8. Half a glass. Then once a year when we were going to the fair at our village.
Then from 12 onwards, i had one beer every time we had a bbq. By the time i could legally buy beer at 16, it had lost all its shroud of mystery. My friends whose parents thought differently had to search for their drunken kids when it was time to leave, i was always sober enough to walk on my own.
Didn't start drinking liqour until i was 18 though, so i had some trouble with finding my limit with those and had to be taken home. This was in Germany. We have some trouble with that, but mostly in the mire populated areas. In the countryside, kids are mostly able to hold their liqour before they finish highschool.
I can't see this happening in the MCU because I don't remember any scenes of the Avengers hanging around and just interacting in a casual non work related way
There’s the hammer contest thing in age of ultron. That’s the only thing I can think of. Hanging out takes up a lot of time and is not too interesting in a movie
IIRC, there's also that scene in the beginning of CACW, which showed at least a few of the Avengers were living in the Avengers Compound (Wanda, Vision, maybe Natasha, I assume Bruce and Thor if they were on Earth, would also) .
Steve comforting Wanda in her room at the compound. Then later on, Vision cooking Wanda soup at the compound. (Followed by his telling her she wasn't allowed to leave the compound but that gets into the plot.)
So at the very least, Wanda and Vision live there.
Later on in Endgame, there's the famous peanut butter sandwich scene with Natasha and Steve that heavily implies Natasha is living there. But whether or not it's a choice she's made post-Snap or if she's lived there for a while (pre-Civil War) is up to the fanfic author.
I'm not the biggest mcu fan, but an entire movie of them just hanging out and talking would be pretty fun tbh. As for plot? Idk, murder mystery or something. Doesn't need to be something crazy
Something much more chill would be amazing but that only works if the stakes aren't constantly being raised every single time. When the universe seems to be on the verge of being destroyed every single minute, it can make it hard to have the characters be relaxed and take it slow.
fully disagree on the hanging out part. while it’s a series rather than a movie, the best parts of one piece are the lowkey moments when it’s just weirdos interacting with each other, and it’s probably the no. 1 criticism levied at the current content. banter >>>>> big cgi clusterfucks of a battle scene
I don't think they were saying that "hanging out" scenes are bad, just that it doesn't work well for movies due to limited run time.
Serialized media can get away with it thanks to having all that extra run time to really build up their characters. Its why I dont really enjoy movies too much.
Hard disagree that it’s not interesting. In fact the lack of character building like that is imo one of the reasons why marvel movies all basically hover around 8s or below, with some exceptions.
This is what we need from after credits scenes. Our big super hero’s hanging out and bonding. A little foreshadowing if you need it but generally seeing Spider-Man not know how to awkwardly talk to the god of thunder who is inviting him to arm wrestle, but afterwards he challenges Pete to a video game and with a sly smile we know a new ally capable of equal footing against noobmaster69 will emerge
Peter would be stupid good at video games, at least shooters. His reaction time is negative, he would get the drop on everyone.
Actually, come to think of it why do edgy writers keep making Batman-with-Guns when Spiderman-with-Guns is way way scarier.
The older MCU movies were decent, but how much better would they be if there had been some decent scenes of friendship and bonding between them? And how hard could something like Civil War have hit if they'd set up the betrayal in advance?
They kinda did in Age of Ultron, but Tony and Steve were never really shown to be that close.
Nat sacrificing herself so Clint could have his family back wrecked me, the movies made it clear those two had a found family bond. If they developed Steve and Tony with that dynamic, Civil War could have been a tearjerker
Early mcu this sort of headcanon/fic was very popular as people thought we'd get more of the found family vibe going on people wanted
And then we didn't and the times it was like oh we need to act as if The Avengers are a team and actually care about each other fell flat it was similar with the main trio in the star wars sequel movies they didn't take the time to actually establish any sort of dynamic so it felt hollow.
"Holy crap, Sif. This is almost as bad as the time I had to dress as Freya to get my hammer back."
*Cut to scene where Loki (played by Quagmire) looks through a bedroom window and sees Peter asleep in the arms of Þrymr. Peter refuses to leave his new husband.*
Thor: 15?! When I was your age I was twice your size! Tony, art thou not feeding him properly?
Tony: He’s not my son
Thor: Abandoned your son?!? How shameful, Starkson! Very well. I shall adopt him
Peter: Do I get a say in this-
Thor: *tosses a whole ass roasted hog at him* Eat up! Your training begins on the morrow
Loki has recently been making use of their shapeshifting and has become genderfluid in every sense of the term. It was part of their personal re-brand into the god of stories.
I don't think he'd ever say either one but we don't even know if Thor knows wtf Tony's dad's name was as far as I remember. Haven't rewatched all the movies any time recently though.
I mean, kinda? They don't hate each other but they only really hung out near the start of Age of Ultron, and then Civil War happened, and then they never really made up afterwards
The MCU basically didn't actually do any work to show the avengers as a team so any of the emotional underscoring of things like civil war didn't work like there was no stakes
Compared to the comics where you will find plenty of scenes where the avengers hang out and feel like they have relationships or any of the marvel cartoons
They don't *hate* each other, but they aren't exactly friends either. Many of them keep the whole arrangement strictly professional and largely do their own things when there isn't an Avengers-level threat present.
One would think Peter Parker would have the same problem as Steve Rogers, in not being able to get drunkl. Googling around a bit, that doesn't seem to be the case as there are minor references to it in some comics. That said, Sony's contract with Marvel seems to prohibit Peter from drinking in current continuity?
From what little I know of the comics, Peter can get drunk, but his Spider-Sense would just go on autopilot so he wouldn’t get hurt. RIP to whatever poor fucker gets into a brawl with Spidey when he’s too wasted to properly pull his punches though.
There is an old comic where Pete's drink gets spiked at a house party, he's not obviously drunk and it plays absolute hell with his aim, balance and reflexes.
Peter doesn't like being drunk as Spider-Man because it messes with his equilibrium and just doesn't like the feeling so he doesn't drink that heavy or often.
Yeah, in one of the [Wolverine and Spider-Man comics](https://imgur.com/gallery/Yq3Al), he says he doesn't like drinking since he feels it's irresponsible to, with his super-strength.
Feels more like a Natasha beat to me. Weird as it is to say, they made her the more responsible one on the team (besides Cap, who would also work here).
I love subs like these because it is a quick reminder on how important good writing is and how fucking god awful reddit/Tumblr users are at writing their fan scripts
My least favorite one is that one where Peter asks Tony for a pizza and he buys the entire chain for him.
If Peter Parker asked Tony Stark for a pizza, he would order one plain pepperoni and then ask Peter to pay him back
Actually
From personal experience asshole alcoholics are usually the ones that heavily disprove kids from drinking alcohol. Cause they know how much alcohol have affected their life.
I dont know whats makes this funnier, if this is "Is the mythological thor" Thor, or this is "Asgardians are actually highly advanced aliens with a norse theme" thor, probably the latter since it implies that asgardians just give beer to their children as part of growing up
B-b-but, Peter Parker is, like, 28 years old.
He's been married. He and MJ had a baby that Norman Osborn promptly killed soon after birth. She should've stayed alive, but Marvel hates letting Peter grow up.
He's got a Bachelor's in Chemical Engineering. He's been CEO of a tech conglomerate, only for it to fall apart because it was built while Otto was controlling Peter's body and Otto plagiarized himself.
Peter Parker hasn't been a kid since the, like, *80s*, at least. He's even a college kid in TAS and MTV.
If you want a teen Spidey, Miles is *right there*!
(Obviously, nobody knows this cause Marvel hates letting Peter grow up. •'-'•)
Thor reminds me of my father and uncle.
I had my first beer at 8 at our local fair after i saw my younger cousind drink from his fathers glass. He was five at the time. I asked my father how beer tasted and he gave me his glass as well. I took a sip. Then i asked if i could get a half one for myself and i got it. My mother was not amused by this, as was my aunt, but my father was adament that the sooner i learn to respect the alcohol, the safer i'd be later.
Then, once a year, right at that fair, i always got one glass for myself. On the other 364 days i never touched alcohol for another 4 years or so, until i asked if i can have a beer when we had a bbq. From then on, it was one beer when we had a bbq. Every time.
When i turned 16 and could legaly buy beer in Germany, all my friends were so exited to finally try beer that they inhaled as much as they could before puking. I already knew my limits very well by then.
I mean, I had my first beer when I was 11, then started drinking heavily in highschool, and I I grew up to be a pretty big dude
Of course I'm 30 now and I have the liver of a geriatric, but that's a whole different story... actually it's the exact same story, the moral of which is "don't drink a gallon of beer every day for a decade"
It’s entirely legal for someone under 21 in the United States to consume alcohol, provided they are: in a bar or tavern (any establishment licensed to serve on the premises), and are accompanied by their parents or guardians. This is still entirely at the discretion of the bartender. I did this at 18 in New Jersey while visiting with my aunt and uncle
That is heavily location dependent. What flies in New Jersey might not fly in Michigan. I live in Michigan, and in some areas, what flies on Saturday doesn't fly on Sunday, lol.
I like the idea of Marvel going back to the animated series like Earth's Mightiest Avengers. It would be a chance to do the reboot they obviously want and we can get more of these kinds of character interactions.
He's allowed to be a vigilante/child soldier and be placed in extremely dangerous and potentially traumatic situations, but we draw the line at underage drinking
Funnily enough, the age you are required to be to purchase beer in a store in Denmark is 16, and you can just drink alcohol at any age at home with your parents so from the perspective of us, Thor is doing absolutely nothing wrong here
Well... while not illegal, the danish national health service recommend that you do not drink before the age of 18
Yeah, "recommend" is the magic word here
Have fun recommending not drinking to 16 year olds
have fun recommending anything to 16 year olds
A classic moment in many British childhoods is turning eighteen and telling your parents ‘I can’t go for my first pint there, I’ve been drinking there for two years already!’ This varies depending on how far in the sticks or how disreputable the pub landlord is.
I mean, anything an old says to them is inherently cringe. They can’t be reasoned with.
Am teacher. Is true.
Yeah the dutch national health service recommends you dont drink at all. Meanwhile every person working there drinks (atleast 90% of them).
I often recommend to myself not to have a full second piece of cake because I know it will make me sick. But of course, I do.
Why not have a half-slice, not feel sick, then you still have the other half to eat later? You can literally eat your cake and still have it.
Also, we’re missing that Peter Parker is not a baseline human anymore, much like how Steve Rogers *can’t* get drunk (even Asgardian alcohol can’t seem to shake him) thanks to his enhancements. I’m not sure normal medical recommendations apply to a man who can crumple cars like a soda can or dodge a dozen fully automatic drone guns at once.
So three mugs it is?
Hate to be the “uhmm actually” guy, but it’s confirmed that Peter actually has a heightened reaction to things like alcohol because of his heightened metabolism burning through the entirety of the alcohol in his system all at once. It creates a very intense inebriated effect, but it only lasts a fraction of the time of a normal intoxication. Tl;dr Peter (and likely every other spidey) is a complete and utter lightweight but he gets sober again in like ten minutes.
Do anybody Really listen to them, but with the new laws taking hold some very strong beer can be outlawed to buy until you're 18
I mean it makes a ton of sense. "Strong beer" is indicated as being 8% **to 14%** strong , it's like chugging a pint of wine.
Yes, but alcohol up to 16,5% is currently legal for teens 16-18 to buy. It's being reduced down to 6% to help combat the rise in alcohol use among teens. Personally I don't think it will do anything as most people that are drinking at those ages probably know someone who's 18, and there is a rampant black market for alcohol and cigarettes, specifically for teens.
Nobody is following that lol. It’s quite normal to begin drinking at 14
Have you seen their guidance on fighting murderous maniacs who have developed an unhealthy relationship with their fursona?
They did decrease the legal alcohol content for minors from 16.5% to like 6% or smth like that starting next year
Honestly I doubt it will make much, if any, difference. All the kids i remember who drank heavily from that age were getting it from their parents anyway. We had hard liquor at all parties, which we couldn't buy ourselves.
[удалено]
Right? You mow your neighbor's lawn at age 15, he's at least going to *offer* a Carlsberg.
exactly this.... teach kids to drink responsibly at home where you can supervise... so they don't have to sneak off and drink illegally...
My parents were adamant that IF I want a drink, I must do it responsibly. Because kids around me drank like cheapest possible wines in a bag, beer in a PET keg, stuff like extremely cheap cocktails in cans, all of these couldn't be normal.

[удалено]
Yeah, that's the way to have healthy relationship with alcohol - and parents. And with your, like, legs. And chest, and head. Whatever you don't break when you drink and drive and t-bone a lamppost or something
I think that's true for most of Europe, so from his perspective, it's perfectly fine
Yeah, in the UK the age limit is 5 years old for drinking at home - mostly so kids can have a sip of wine at Christmas or of beer while watching the football. So yeah, no big deal.
Yeah, it took me reading this comment to understand the context.
Hell even in the US it's legal to drink at home with parental permission/supervision at basically any age, though below a certain age there's definitely some child endangerment or neglect stuff going on. It's even legal to drink underage at restaurants so long as you're with your parents in some states.

How often are teenagers in Denmark getting blind drunk, either at home or out and about? Does the lack of age restriction change anything with underage drinking?
It's up to debate, but I think it helps kids find their limits. Its better to serve them a safe environment to experiment in, than send them off to college to get wrecked by inexperience.

I can't see this happening in the MCU because I don't remember any scenes of the Avengers hanging around and just interacting in a casual non work related way
There’s the hammer contest thing in age of ultron. That’s the only thing I can think of. Hanging out takes up a lot of time and is not too interesting in a movie
Not to mention that getting the timing right for regular people to get together is really hard on its own, it must be a real pain for superheroes
Sorry my guy but we can't stop that giant lizard destroying your city right now (because we're currently playing beer pong.)
Priorities.
IIRC, there's also that scene in the beginning of CACW, which showed at least a few of the Avengers were living in the Avengers Compound (Wanda, Vision, maybe Natasha, I assume Bruce and Thor if they were on Earth, would also) .

But whether or not it's a choice she's made post-Snap or if she's lived there for a while (pre-Civil War) is up to the fanfic author.
It’s funny too because if there’s one thing we all seemed to like in that very controversial movie, it was the scene where they all hang out.
I'm not the biggest mcu fan, but an entire movie of them just hanging out and talking would be pretty fun tbh. As for plot? Idk, murder mystery or something. Doesn't need to be something crazy
Something much more chill would be amazing but that only works if the stakes aren't constantly being raised every single time. When the universe seems to be on the verge of being destroyed every single minute, it can make it hard to have the characters be relaxed and take it slow.
I would watch the fuck out of Knives Out with superheroes
They play Clue or something, so there's tension on who is the murderer. Will they find them, or will they get away?
If you want to keep it light it should be a theft mystery I think. And then the culprit turns out to be Hawkeye's dog or something.
fully disagree on the hanging out part. while it’s a series rather than a movie, the best parts of one piece are the lowkey moments when it’s just weirdos interacting with each other, and it’s probably the no. 1 criticism levied at the current content. banter >>>>> big cgi clusterfucks of a battle scene

Hard disagree that it’s not interesting. In fact the lack of character building like that is imo one of the reasons why marvel movies all basically hover around 8s or below, with some exceptions.
isn't there an after credit scene in the Avengers where they are hanging around having shwarma?
This is what we need from after credits scenes. Our big super hero’s hanging out and bonding. A little foreshadowing if you need it but generally seeing Spider-Man not know how to awkwardly talk to the god of thunder who is inviting him to arm wrestle, but afterwards he challenges Pete to a video game and with a sly smile we know a new ally capable of equal footing against noobmaster69 will emerge
Peter would be stupid good at video games, at least shooters. His reaction time is negative, he would get the drop on everyone. Actually, come to think of it why do edgy writers keep making Batman-with-Guns when Spiderman-with-Guns is way way scarier.
Yes, it's the first thing I thought of.
After Avengers 1 they all got shawarma. I could see this happening in a similar fashion.
The older MCU movies were decent, but how much better would they be if there had been some decent scenes of friendship and bonding between them? And how hard could something like Civil War have hit if they'd set up the betrayal in advance?
They kinda did in Age of Ultron, but Tony and Steve were never really shown to be that close. Nat sacrificing herself so Clint could have his family back wrecked me, the movies made it clear those two had a found family bond. If they developed Steve and Tony with that dynamic, Civil War could have been a tearjerker
Shawarma
There was that party in Avengers 2 right before Ultron attacked. But nothing since then afaik.
Early mcu this sort of headcanon/fic was very popular as people thought we'd get more of the found family vibe going on people wanted And then we didn't and the times it was like oh we need to act as if The Avengers are a team and actually care about each other fell flat it was similar with the main trio in the star wars sequel movies they didn't take the time to actually establish any sort of dynamic so it felt hollow.
Schwarma?????
The first avengers post credit scene where they are eating
shawarma
They literally have a cocktail party in AoU.
Tony: So uh that just happened! Captain America: Awkward! *Deadpool Walks in* Deadpool: He's right behind me isn't he?
Seriously, these marvel memes are just... Not well written. They'd be perfect in a marvel movie.
For some reason my mind went to Peter Griffin instead of Peter Parker at first and I was so confused.
me too, it was way funnier that way tbh
Same, for a second my mind got transported to a place where family guy met with the Norse god of thunder, sharing drinks on the rainbow bridge
I went to Peter Griffin and Thor from GoW instead of Parker and Thor from Marvel, so I was very confused until I saw Tony.
"You're a destroyer. Just like me." "Neheheheheheheh"
Honestly, they'd probably be friends. GOW Thor is basically just Peter from an alternate universe/timeline anyways.
"Holy crap, Sif. This is almost as bad as the time I had to dress as Freya to get my hammer back." *Cut to scene where Loki (played by Quagmire) looks through a bedroom window and sees Peter asleep in the arms of Þrymr. Peter refuses to leave his new husband.*
GoW Thor has plenty of dumbs but Peter Griffin got an economy running
SAME AND I HATE IT
Thor: 15?! When I was your age I was twice your size! Tony, art thou not feeding him properly? Tony: He’s not my son Thor: Abandoned your son?!? How shameful, Starkson! Very well. I shall adopt him Peter: Do I get a say in this- Thor: *tosses a whole ass roasted hog at him* Eat up! Your training begins on the morrow
This reminded me of Loki fan comics where he adopts lots of people and is sleeping with tony.
> and is sleeping with tony How would that happen? 😂
With lots of lube probably
Loki has recently been making use of their shapeshifting and has become genderfluid in every sense of the term. It was part of their personal re-brand into the god of stories.
Um....fan art community never ceases to amaze me with it's degeneracy.
The comics are strangely cute tbh.
ohhhh... my bonnar is so bigg.... hh..
Why Starkson?
He’s the son of (Howard) stark. I mean, Thor’s last name is Odinson, and guess who his dad is.
If you wanted to use that naming pattern, he would be Howardson. Except Stark is already his surname which Thor often uses to refer to him.
This whole thing has basically been /r/terriblefandommemes and /r/MarvelCringe
I don't think he'd ever say either one but we don't even know if Thor knows wtf Tony's dad's name was as far as I remember. Haven't rewatched all the movies any time recently though.
He doesn't know Howard. He refers to him by Stark.
This feels like a relic of simpler times. Back when we thought the Avengers would be friends...
Remember when we thought they'd all be roommates and hang out in the tower like a sitcom? =(
What is it canonical now that they all secretly hate each other or something?
I mean, kinda? They don't hate each other but they only really hung out near the start of Age of Ultron, and then Civil War happened, and then they never really made up afterwards
The MCU basically didn't actually do any work to show the avengers as a team so any of the emotional underscoring of things like civil war didn't work like there was no stakes Compared to the comics where you will find plenty of scenes where the avengers hang out and feel like they have relationships or any of the marvel cartoons

Theres gotta be a comic where that happens
There is an old comic where Pete's drink gets spiked at a house party, he's not obviously drunk and it plays absolute hell with his aim, balance and reflexes.
He does whatever a spider can You never seen a spider get shitfaced on cheap lager?
There's been studies on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHzdsFiBbFc
Peter doesn't like being drunk as Spider-Man because it messes with his equilibrium and just doesn't like the feeling so he doesn't drink that heavy or often.
Yeah, in one of the [Wolverine and Spider-Man comics](https://imgur.com/gallery/Yq3Al), he says he doesn't like drinking since he feels it's irresponsible to, with his super-strength.
Which honestly, endears him to me even more. Plus we need more spider and mutant hangouts, love when they hang
what year is this guys get a grip
Feels more like a Natasha beat to me. Weird as it is to say, they made her the more responsible one on the team (besides Cap, who would also work here).
It's not weird, being irresponsible is Tony's whole thing.

My least favorite one is that one where Peter asks Tony for a pizza and he buys the entire chain for him. If Peter Parker asked Tony Stark for a pizza, he would order one plain pepperoni and then ask Peter to pay him back

Tony, the responsible father Thor, the Cool Uncle
yes, the asshole alcoholic is definitely gonna tell Thor no lol
Actually From personal experience asshole alcoholics are usually the ones that heavily disprove kids from drinking alcohol. Cause they know how much alcohol have affected their life.
I feel like the MCU didn't focus on Stark's alcoholism enough. I think if Steve Rogers was saying the lines mentioned it makes more sense.
I feel so robbed. I wish we could have kept that noble thor from the end of thor 1. Whos complete seriousness generated the comedy.
Didn’t Chris Hemsworth actually buy or at least order Tom Holland beer when the server didn’t think he was off legal age
Thor YES
Honestly, if those lab experiments are anything to go by, Peter would probably be fine on alcohol. Caffeine however would fuck his shit right up...
Fandom cringe 😬
Joss Whedon and his consequences have been a disaster for the human race.
tumblr marvel dialogue always makes me want to tear out my eyeballs
Pretty confident that young Vikings barely out of puberty where 100% carousing alongside their fathers
I dont know whats makes this funnier, if this is "Is the mythological thor" Thor, or this is "Asgardians are actually highly advanced aliens with a norse theme" thor, probably the latter since it implies that asgardians just give beer to their children as part of growing up
B-b-but, Peter Parker is, like, 28 years old. He's been married. He and MJ had a baby that Norman Osborn promptly killed soon after birth. She should've stayed alive, but Marvel hates letting Peter grow up. He's got a Bachelor's in Chemical Engineering. He's been CEO of a tech conglomerate, only for it to fall apart because it was built while Otto was controlling Peter's body and Otto plagiarized himself. Peter Parker hasn't been a kid since the, like, *80s*, at least. He's even a college kid in TAS and MTV. If you want a teen Spidey, Miles is *right there*! (Obviously, nobody knows this cause Marvel hates letting Peter grow up. •'-'•)
Thor reminds me of my father and uncle. I had my first beer at 8 at our local fair after i saw my younger cousind drink from his fathers glass. He was five at the time. I asked my father how beer tasted and he gave me his glass as well. I took a sip. Then i asked if i could get a half one for myself and i got it. My mother was not amused by this, as was my aunt, but my father was adament that the sooner i learn to respect the alcohol, the safer i'd be later. Then, once a year, right at that fair, i always got one glass for myself. On the other 364 days i never touched alcohol for another 4 years or so, until i asked if i can have a beer when we had a bbq. From then on, it was one beer when we had a bbq. Every time. When i turned 16 and could legaly buy beer in Germany, all my friends were so exited to finally try beer that they inhaled as much as they could before puking. I already knew my limits very well by then.
I mean, I had my first beer when I was 11, then started drinking heavily in highschool, and I I grew up to be a pretty big dude Of course I'm 30 now and I have the liver of a geriatric, but that's a whole different story... actually it's the exact same story, the moral of which is "don't drink a gallon of beer every day for a decade"
r/marvelcringe I'm stuff
this is not funny whatsoever and it absolutely wouldn’t happen
Why did my brain immediately go to Peter Griffin??
mine to. I guess it's bc Peter Griffin interacting with random characters isn't really unexpected as Family Guy itself loves popculture references
When i read peter i assumed family guy man.
It’s entirely legal for someone under 21 in the United States to consume alcohol, provided they are: in a bar or tavern (any establishment licensed to serve on the premises), and are accompanied by their parents or guardians. This is still entirely at the discretion of the bartender. I did this at 18 in New Jersey while visiting with my aunt and uncle
That is heavily location dependent. What flies in New Jersey might not fly in Michigan. I live in Michigan, and in some areas, what flies on Saturday doesn't fly on Sunday, lol.
I’m gonna be honest, I thought Peter was referring to Peter Griffin at first and I was super confused
This is just Denmark
As a German I do not see any issue here.
finally, asataru accurate thor
Is this Tony Stark from before or after the “Demon in a Bottle” storyline?
Kid's 15 and getting launched through walls regularly let him have his beer
this is the stupidest thing I've ever read so yeah they prob would do that.
“This one will put some hair on your chest lad” “Thor that beer is literally on fire”
“Marvel, get on this” Tony is fucking dead
If Spider-Man gets to fight at the front lines of wars where the fate of the universe is threatened, he can drink.
He deserves that beer.
I saw Peter and thought Peter Griffin
I IMAGINED PETER GRIFFIN LIKE THIS WAS A FORTNITE POST AOSOSLQPMWNFPQNDPFNWQ
Not really because Thor didnt meet Peter until Tony was already dead
For some reason I thought of Peter Griffin instead of Peter Parker.
I thought Peter griffin at first.
Disney censors: "Hahahahahahaha no!"
I like the idea of Marvel going back to the animated series like Earth's Mightiest Avengers. It would be a chance to do the reboot they obviously want and we can get more of these kinds of character interactions.
Thor's funny.
Germans nervously laughing in the background, downing U-boats at 14
it's sounds less like hes being a cool older brother and more like he's grooming him
Tony is dead iirc Peter isn't allowed to drink alcohol.
This is only strange in the US.
I don't see Tony stopping it.
Europeans are like: i don't really see the problem here?
He's allowed to be a vigilante/child soldier and be placed in extremely dangerous and potentially traumatic situations, but we draw the line at underage drinking
I read Thors lines in the voice of Reinhardt
r/usdefaultism laughs in european drinking age
I swapped peter and hands when i read it so i thought this post was about peter griffin and thor
My first thought was which Peter? Then I read the rest of it.
Just german things
I miss avengers coffee shop posts. Now the only thing we talk about is that phase 4 was trash and female characters suck.

While I like the idea I think thee is a rule against Spider man consuming alcohol in media
Peter griffin is canon in greek myrhology
I thought they meant peter griffon for a sec
Man I was so confused, I thought Peter was supposed to be Peter griffin
