Alice drinking game

Mar 17, 2011 22:55

You all know that I like the "Alice" series of girl-growing-up books by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor. (Slice of life minutia of not very angsty teens is my comfort genre.) So far she's written about 20 of them, and you can't get through 20 books without some bizarre recurring themes. Without further ado I present to you

The Alice Series Drinking Game

Drink whenever:

  • Alice learns about the vulva for the first time
  • Somebody's bridesmaid backs out at the last minute and the dress happens to fit Alice
  • Alice hilariously pranks her brother
  • Alice makes a pass at her brother
  • Moustaches are deemed sexy
  • Teachers don't understand that theirs isn't Alice's only subject
  • Teenagers openly discuss "the runs"
  • The Melody Inn carries a product that belittles and demeans a classical composer
  • Alice is embarrassed about playing Tarzan with Donald Sheavers at age eleven
  • Alice is escorted home by the police

I'd do a Baby-sitters Club drinking game, but it would take a long time to type everything up and you would be super trashed by chapter 2.

ya, books, alice
