Presidential Debate Drinking Game
After watching debate number one, I am currently convinced taht neither of these men are qualified to clean my toilet, let alone run the country. So, for the next debate I'm going to get people together and have some fun... feel free to join in if you feel like it.
The drinking rules for the second debate will be as follows:
One drink:

htownmamaLOL That was great! ianimal.
htownmama I could have used your husband last night, The "Park Partiers" striked again. Although they were gone by midbight.haha
You forgot one, ianimal. Every time Henry Kissinger is mentioned you have to slam a colt45 accompanied by a mad dog 20/20 chaser.
reggie ianimal i think im the youngest one on this forum. luckygirl i would have went over myself! and reggie my god thats gross i think i just puked in my mouth.
joeguy 
FireFly At least don't take credit for being original. Comedy Central started it and there's different versions all over the web.
I think we have all tossed a few cookies when trying mad dog 20/20 for the first time. :-) AND LAST!!!
We should all get together for the VP debate on friday. My gut says it will be VERY entertaining.
I apologize if anyone thought I made up the game. LOL, I don't have that much time on my hands.
I would have credited who started it, had I known. It came to me uncredited in an email.
I almost choked on my lunch laughing through this! I'm always up for a drinking game...this was sooooo funny!
LadyBug 
Gordy lol! I know, I just saw it on the news. HLF's Happy Hour night! I hope all of HLF's "opinionated characters" show up! Come on! It'll be great! It's healthy to debate.
ianimal- it was grape for me too :-) how nasty is that crap! Did you ever try cisco? Just as bad- both seem to induce vomiting. :-))))
lets forget mad dog when i was younger the minister from my church found me on my parents lawn puking on myself 4 bottles into that crap. i can still taste it, eww.
HTmama!!!! 4 bottles???? ewwwwww!!! Of course the minister found you! Who else? lol great story, we can line 'em up at the laughing lion thursday! If we're gonna be honest, I pulled my best exorcist impersonation in a bar and let the chunks fly, ever so gracefully, under the table we were sitting at during a chip n' dales "performance" in Troy NY. That was from a mix of grape 20/20 and cisco. I will NEVER touch it again! ianimal, what's your story with the grape ape?
Two bottles before the Easton-P'burg game (9:30 in the morning or so) when I was a freshman in high school... there's a patch of ground on Lafayette's campus where I'm sure that grass will not grow to this day.
Matt what is 4 bottles when your young and retarded ya know? It was a horrible mess trust me. that stuff is so gross. how old is reggie???
Matt, I graduated from Phillipsburg High School, which is geographically in New Jersey but always seemed to be more Pennsylvanian in attitude to me...
Reggie, just looking at the bottle causes a rumble down under, lol... don't post a photo of SoCo or I will need to buy a new monitor.
LMAO!!!!!! At both ianimal and htmama! I'm a very immature 35 years old. I'm still 23, I swear!!! I will never grow up and don't intend to. :-) I would love to start a new forum topic about alcohol puke stories, but I'm willing to bet it wont go over well. I have lived through vanilla ice, millie vanillie, NKOTB, criss cross, another bad creation and richard marx. Take it from me parents just dont understand. HORRIBLE! lol Thank god for STP, PJ and AICs!
I underestimated meself, Reg... the monitor survived.
It's a good thing I don't have "smell-around" capability: one whiff and there's be bratwurst and German potato salad all over the place, lol.
Reggie: Scott Weiland, Eddie Vedder and Layne Staley? Heroin junkie fetish? Lol, j/k...
As for Cisco... the last time I had it was before the Mets-Braves playoff game in 2000, I believe, (the one where Ventura won it with the walk-off grand slam/single). I bought it because we didn't have time to properly tailgate and figured that it would get us in the proper mindset, lol... we threw 3 bottles away.
The funniest thing about Cisco is that they sell it in 4-packs, as if it were a wine cooler, when it's 40-something proof, lol.
star date 2008, 9-27, ....... triple secret probation follows me. The earthings have figured out I have come to learn their secret communication through the simplest form of data. The Internet. Damn you. Damn you all to hell. I am on to you earthlings. I have been busy on the chalkboard with writings at 50 times each.... I will not swear on the Hackettstown forum. A very primitive attempt to correct me of my wrong doings, but I will entertain the requests of the earthlings in the hopes that my views will be posted in a timely manner.
lol, you guys are funny! I typed a bad word last night and then repeated it several times, for my own entertainment purposes. I think my chianti may have been laced with mad dog 20/20. I was arrested last night by Chris and received a ticket for a TWI, Typing While Intoxicated. I had it reduced to a TWAI, Typing While Ability Impaired and 20 seconds of community service . . . . Get your pets spayed and neutered. There. Done.
I sometimes repeat bad words in my head over and over again and laugh like an ass and NO one understands. i hope you were serious! im just kidding. Heh....heh... how weird would that be? what?!?!
Anyone out there remember Night Train? That was a big low-down drink 'back in the day' right up there w/MD2020!
Calico696 enough with the mad dog. Im gunna puke. ya know what is worse then mad dog?? my brother "back in the day" when he turned 21 he did this shot called the "jersey turnpike" and basically its a shot of whatever can be squeeezed out of the freakin bar rag. omg *runs with vomit in mouth* ha ha ha!
Ahhhhh! gross!!!! we had the same thing in NY. All the juices caught in the rubber mat bartenders mix drinks on would be poured in a shot glass. Urgghhh!!!
What's worse than MD 2020? A frat brother emptying 3 different bottles into a double shot glass to end out the night of high dose alcoholism. Gin, tequila and who knows what. Disgusting. Not to mention not right for a 17 year old. The frat brother later admitted "I lost everything I owned that night". The fact I didn't is a symptom of a disease.
Drinking games shouldn't be glorified.
GC Thanks for the rules! My debate viewing is never complete without drinking rules. I linked to my Blog so I am sure that many will appreciate the contribution!
"I lost everything I owned that night".
GC- is that a euphemism for throwing up or more literal than that?
Dolly Hammy got into your Single Malt Bushmill's? Can't trust a rodent...
I think I have half a bottle of Black Bush in the liquor cabinet I can let you have, but the Single Barrel Jack is off limits... not sure how much longer I'll be able to afford it, LOL.
ianimal - I'm just quoting. At the time I assumed at a minimum projectile force vomit was involved. But when you think about it things like his faculties, his dignity, his balance, etc. were probably lost as well. He didn't explain fully nor did I think it warranted asking.
OK, GC, I thought it may have been a DWI fatality... faculties and dignity can be regained, life cannot.
Cool... ten minutes into the debate and I'm not sure I'm gonna make it to work tomorrow (-;
WOW... somebody alert the HRMC emergency room. If anyone was following the rules of this game, it may be a busy night.
