Bad idea # 342
Watching the debate?
Prepared to be disgusted with the drivel coming out of the mouths of lipstick-wearing Babes?
I have just the solution for you!
It's the 2008 Vice-Presidential Debate Drinking game! (TM)
Given the candidates, we (along with your liver) recommend against taking shots. Light beer, Mike's, Boone's Farm, or a very watered-down mixed drink will be just the (party of your choice) ticket.
I have stolen much of this from the internet done extensive research on this subject, and this is the drinking game I propose:
For Sarah Palin:
- Every time Palin mentions one of her kids by name, take 2 drinks. If she mentions her children but does not give a name, take 1 drink.
- If Palin refers to the fact that Alaska borders a foreign country , take 1 drink. If she says "small maritime border" take 2 drinks.
- If Palin uses the phrase, “hockey mom” Take 2 drinks
- When Palin repeats the exact same phrase in the space of 1 minute take the number of drinks that correspond to the number of times she repeated herself.
- When Palin gets so cornered that she says something along the lines of "I'll have to get back to ya on that one" Take 3 drinks
For Joe Biden:
- Every time Biden chuckles condescendingly at Sarah Palin, take 1 drink. Every time Biden chuckles condescendingly at moderator Gwen Ifill, take 2 drinks.
- Every time Biden refers to himself in the third person, take 1 drink. If he uses his full name (e.g. “When people ask me, ‘Joe Biden, how did you become so good looking?’”), take 2 drinks.
- If Biden mentions the size or population of Delaware relative to that of Alaska take 1 drink. If he uses the phrase 1/100th take 2 drinks.
- If Biden talks about raising taxes take 1 drink. If he says paying taxes is patriotic, take 2 drinks.
If either candidate mentions:
- Russia, take 1 drink. U.S.S.R., take 2 drinks.
- Hillary Clinton, take 1 drink. Bill Clinton, take 2 drinks.
- Dick Cheney, take 1 drink. Al Gore, take 2 drinks.
- Cosmetics take 1 drink. Farmyard animals, take 2 drinks
