Well it seems the southwest winter has well & truly set in, i can't remember the last time i rode & the days of wearing shirts or anything other than a coat & beanie are long gone. So with the absence of exercise & anything worthwhile on the TV, time has to be spent well. This is where the gift of drinking games applies, whilst you probably shouldn't do this everyday unless you want to look like a father Christmas/werzel gummage combo prematurely but a few times a week is definitely good for you? and solves winter boredom if nothing else. I thought I'd share a few of my personal favourites.
1. Song/film/TV show or anything with words.... Anyone over the age of 18 who hasn't done this at some point in their life is clearly lying or the product of an extremely sheltered upbringing. Basically you pick a song or film or whatever tickles your pickle which repeats a phrase or word several times, for example Bob Marley's 'jammin' or Police's 'Roxanne' & drink every time a certain word is repeated for example:
"Rooooooooooxaaaaaane" = a hearty shot/mouthful of white ace or whatever you happen to be wrapping your lips around.
My personal favourite for this game is Task force's 'Wah Blow', its pretty much impossible to complete ( about 50 times in four minutes or something) & if you do you can walk round with the swagger of a North London Grime collective for the rest of the night. If you wanna do it to a film do it with Scarface (every time 'fuck,fucking or mang' comes up), anyone who can last more than half an hour without feeling a little sick & not irritated by the sound of a Cuban accent has my undying respect.
2. Four kings/Ring of fire..... Contrary to what the latter suggests this game has nothing to do with rectums or hangover toilet antics. It basically a genteel game of cards only with the opportunity to get yourself & everybody else as drunk as you like. I could go into the rules but that would take me way to many characters & a few too many minutes of my Sunday afternoon.
3. Finger spoof.... The simpleton's game, although i have to admit the name suggests some £1 trick you can buy from Hawkins bizarre. Digression aside the game consists of all the player's placing their fingers on a (preferably disgusting) concoction of your choice & taking it in turns to guess the amount of tobacco stained fingers left round the rim when the excited drunkards take them off..... simple? if not i make no apologies despite being the most simple game i know its somehow the hardest to explain, the majority of my friends seem to have a mental block on anything which doesn't involve multiple rules & consequences.
4. 21, if this doesn't bring back golden nostalgia of classroom games of cards where the loser got a swift rap across already mashed knuckles, then you can at least have a good time drinking to it. Provided your not playing with paralytic drunks, pre schoolers or anyone else with numerical disorders a game should not take more than three minutes annnd best of all you don't need me to explain it, just ask any self respecting person. ( at this point a ran out of relevant photos so this one will do, it was possibly after/before said game?)
I understand this reads like something which didn't make the grade for vice or some other lame student guide but boredom calls & with such a bland lifestyle during the winter its inevitable these unfortunate pieces of nothing in particular get written.
Oh & the photos are pretty irrelevant i know but i stole most of them from my housemates, so no complaints there.
