Drinking Games: 2008 Presidential Election
According to my calendar, the Nov.4 U.S. Presidential Election happens to fall on a Tuesday this year. My friends would tell you guys that I would never advocate drinking on a Tuesday but since this is a special occasion I think I can make an exception just this once. In the name of truth, justice, [...]
Drinking Games: Super Smash Bros.
Throughout my university career I have struggled to come up with a drinking game to accompany our favorite video game: Super Smash Bros. Though the series has come a long way in the last decade or so, throughout all of my searching (and believe me, I’ve done a lot), I have yet to come across [...]
What You Could Buy With The $700B Bank Bailout
I’m not going to give this much of a preamble because I can’t claim to know much about economics, but let me just say that if seven-hundred billion dollars doesn’t already seem like an unfathomable number, consider what you could do if you had that money.

Drinking Games: Jeopardy
The Jeopardy Drinking Game is a bit more socially acceptable than the Price is Right Drinking Game — at least it’s on after dinner — but certainly no less potent.

Beer: The Only Safe Investment
When a market is teetering on collapse, like it is now, there is only one safe bet for where you should put your money: beer. According to my grandfather, when he was a boy you could buy a six-pack of beer for only a quarter. Imagine his chagrin when I told him that six-packs now [...]
Drinking Games: Superfriends
Note, this game is adapted from Seanbaby’s original rules for the Superfriends Drinking Game.
Some of my favorite drinking games involve watching a TV show or movie and drinking every time some recurring event happens. The bonus here is that the show gives you entertainment as well as constant prompts for when you should imbibe. Some [...]
Drinking Games: The Price is Right
I invented the Price is Right drinking game back in Freshman year. One December morning I awoke to find that our fair university had been hit by a blizzard (fate?) and decided not to go to any class that day. Instead, being a diligent student, I plopped down on the couch and started watching the [...]
Drinking Games: Ultimate Kings
Kings is a game that is played by almost everyone in college at point or another and is a great drinking game to start a night because it’s only as intense as you make it. Well, over my university career my friends and I have played hundreds of games and have come up with a [...]
How to Win Easily at Every Drinking Game
The average college students drinks so often that simply having a few beers with friends isn’t exciting anymore; thus, drinking games were invented. Almost every college party has some kind of drinking game going on, whether it’s something intensely competitive like Beer Pong or a more friendly game like Kings, and being adept at them [...]
