Good morning Mpasholites, I know some of you are just about to go to bed because they were out partying all night, others are nursing serious hangovers after heavy drinking last night and maybe others are just okay even after drinking.

According to science, there are different kinds of drinkers; The Mary Poppins, Ernest Hemingway, The Nutty Professor, and Mr. Hyde. Here's how the study breaks down the four types:

1. Ernest Hemingway drinker.

This is the largest group. The Hemingway drinker's behavior doesn't seem to be that affected by alcohol. Ernest Hemingway was known for bragging that he could "drink any amount of whiskey without getting drunk." The Hemingway alcoholic personality doesn't show any major changes when they go from sober to drunk. Someone like Joe Muchiri.

2. Mary Poppins drinker.

If you're a Mary Poppins drinker, you're a sweet and responsible drinker. Mary Poppins describes herself in the 1964 movie as practically perfect in every way, and most Mary Poppins drinkers are already outgoing types who get even more chatty and flirty the more they drink. Uncle Chim Tuna is a perfect example.

3. Nutty Professor drinker.

This type is based on the Eddie Murphy version of the film The Nutty Professor, not the Jerry Lewis one (though it would probably work, too). According to the study, the Nutty Professor drinker is a natural introvert who sheds their inhibitions. You know, the type of person who can't have fun at a party until they get their drink on. Our social media guru Chege is this type of a drinker.

4. Mr. Hyde drinker.

When talking about the Mr. Hyde drinker, they're the less responsible, hostile, evil twin who, when under the influence of alcohol, become a mean drunk.Being able to identify what kind of drinker someone is will help get people the right kind of treatment they need. And it will also help you stay away from the Mr. Hyde drinkers, as they can be extremely dangerous. Unfortunately, No one in our team is this kind of a drinker, but you can also meet kind of walevis at events, clubs and bars.

Which kind of drinker are you? Are you the sweet Mary Poppins? Or the evil Mr. Hyde? Let us know in the comment section below.
