        A bottle of wine is an amorphous solid, unable to be drunk itself (unless you live on a planet with a temp of ~550 C), so you were actually drinking the contents of the bottle, not the bottle itself.

        Just exactly how does that make you old? The pricier stuff taste better. Maybe that just means you have better taste. Happy Birthday !
