Presidential Debate Drinking Game
Carly and I had some friends over yesterday to have dinner and watch the debate, and about an hour before it started we crafted a drinking game. Here is the list. I've italicized the ones that we did in fact have to drink on. I didn't feel very well by the end of the night.

Take a shot of vodka if:
that projector for the planetarium is mentioned.
someone says "that one."
McCain mentions Sarah Palin in a really creepy way. (we counted this one because he wasn't creepy about Sarah, but when he mentioned her husband he was)
Bill O'Reilly crashes through a window naked.
Bill Ayers is brought up.
Obama does a dick move. (We considered this possibly when Obama congratulated McCain on his state football team winning.)
someone says "socialism" (SO CLOSE)
the audience laughs
McCain's computer illiteracy is brought up.
one of the candidates pounds their fist on the table.
the debate ends.

Take a drink of beer if:
McCain says "my friends"
Obama says "more of the same"
either candidate spins their answer into a generic speech
either candidate blatently ignores the question

anyone says "maverick" (Shockingly, not!)
if someone specifically says "vietnam" or "P.O.W"
either candidate calls the other by his first name
someone says "middle class"

McCain says "here's what Senator Obama doesn't want you to know...'
someone makes the "Wall St./Main St." comparison
someone brings up General Petreyus
McCain says Obama can't admit he's wrong about Iraq
A candidate chuckles to themself.

How are grown adults going to justify drinking games after the election?



I'm seriously asking because I need the justification.

I have crafted a version of Monopoly that's promising.

I seriously didn't expect McCain to bring up the Bill Ayers nonsense. That really surprised me. This was a real debate, after all.

He didn't! The moderator did.

He didn't dismiss it. He pretended it was an actual concern.

just obama laughing when mccain got all hurt made me want to drink.

I mean, what could drive a man to drink more than john mccain trying to show an actual human emotion?

it's like watching a turing test where every time the computer fails, you get a kick to the nuts.

we have very dangerous men trying to "lead" our country.
