Life is a beverage, drink it up

Published by jturkin under Uncategorized Edit This

I was online and came across a 24 drinking game. Let’s just say, that show deserves better. It should’ve included a drink whenever somebody says, “we don’t have much time,” or something of the like; when a character gives the succinct response, “yeah.” Or when some technological jargon is mentioned as a way of explaining something to the audience… we need the explanation because most of the stuff is made up anyway. What about when somebody at CTU opens up a new socket? You should have to drink at the mention of “schematics” or every time something ridiculously impossible happens, i.e. a terrorist decides at the last minute to not kill a hostage, namely Jack or Jack shoots/saves somebody at the very last moment possible. How the hell does he cruise through LA (possibly the most over populated city in
America) so fast?

 

I’ve decided that there should be drinking games for events in real life.

 

You should have to drink whenever:

Somebody doesn’t wash their hands after bathroom use.

Somebody sings incorrect lyrics… drink twice if nobody corrects him.

Somebody laughs at a joke he knows isn’t funny.

Anytime I am sarcastic… I will destroy your livers.

You procrastinate.

You watch bad TV (aka Reality shows or procedural shows)

Somebody claims to be so full… but eats anyway (twice if it’s not Thanksgiving)

Something is described as “cute” or “fabulous.” Those words don’t mean anything!

Somebody quotes TV or a movie… drink twice when somebody repeats the quote or tries to say it better

A TV commercial makes you want the advertised product (infomercials don’t count)

A TV commercial is makes no sense (how does a Gecko sell insurance? Why is everybody in McDonald’s commercials so thin and healthy looking – they eat McDonald’s!)

A commercial for a medical product/pill doesn’t make you feel uncomfortable.

You see the same commercial within the same commercial break.

Somebody yells at an inanimate object (drink twice if it’s not the TV)

 

While snooping in on someone else’s conversation and they

Mention movies or TV (drink twice if they refer to a character by his actor’s name)

Mention a celebrity (twice if they mention a personal detail like spouse, child’s name, family life, affair, etc.)

Make a false claim about politics (twice if they mention Obama’s middle name, or Sarah Palin… at all)

Talk about the economy… and clearly don’t know what they’re talking about (aka, “under the umbrella of creation.” – hint: do not listen to a Sarah Palin interview unless you really need to get schmammered)

 

Finish your drink whenever:

A politician speaks candidly, openly or honestly.

Somebody mentions reading a book… not genre fiction (mystery, romance, military) and not a book series (Harry Pooter)

You choose a healthy choice over an inexpensive one (I do realize that telling you to drink would turn your healthy choice into a very unhealthy choice).

The choice to be sarcastic is defeated by the choice to be helpful.

 

Finish all the drinks, everywhere whenever:

(in due time) the Cubs win the World Series.

They bring back Arrested Development (the movie doesn’t count).

I start making sense.
