    Пить как рыба

    Does this phase have any meaning in Russian:
    "Пить как рыба" ?
    Заранее благодарю всех за исправление ошибок в моём русском.

    I guess I understand what it means, but it sounds strange and foreign.

    i think this means "drink too much" (vodka). but now, such phrase is pretty rare

    Но это все, Дмитри -- на английском есть такая фраза "to drink like a fish." Как кто-то сказал ранее, это просто значит "пить очень много" (а также есть вариант для курения: "to smoke like a chimney"). К примеру:
    -I saw John Doe today. Boy! He looks terrible -- he told me he has kidney problems!
    -Oh, yeah. Well, that's not surprising since he drinks like a fish!

    Правильно я понял и ответил тебе, Дмитри?
    Заранее благодарю всех за исправление ошибок в моём русском.

    в основом, Бармчик придумал новую пословицу "пить как рыба", но в русском уже есть "to drink like a fish" - "пить как лощадь"
    Hei, rett norsken min og du er død.
    I am a notourriouse misspeller. Be easy on me.
    Пожалуйста! Исправляйте мои глупые ошибки (но оставьте умные)!

    Какая разница, умереть богатым или бедным?

    Какой толк от богатства если ты не счастлив.

    We can also say "He was sitting in his Ford Bronco with the windows rolled up smoking up a storm"
