Thanksgiving Family Argument Bingo

[Scott P]

[Iceaxe]

We play the Thanksgiving drinking game at the IceAxe House.... everyone takes a shot whenever....

1. When someone refers to the turkey as “moist.”

2. When someone refers to the turkey as “dry.”

3. Anytime anyone says “tryptophan.”

4. Someone asks for an unreasonably large piece of pie.

5. Someone asks for an unreasonably tiny piece of pie.

6. Someone brings a “raw” or “clean eating” or “paleo” side dish.

7. Someone asks a personal question you’d rather not answer.

8. Someone falls asleep right after dinner.

9. Someone falls asleep BEFORE dinner.

10. Someone actually says “Gobble gobble.”

11. Someone unbuttons their pants.

12. An argument breaks out over whether or not the turkey is done.

13. Someone has to make an emergency run to the store (and maybe that person is you).

14. Whenever eating time gets pushed back 30 minutes or more.

15. Someone says “I’m going on a diet tomorrow.”

16. Someone tries to initiate tossing the football around.

17. Someone (and maybe it’s you) eats five or more dinner rolls.

18. You receive a category 5 awkward hug.

19. Someone brings up Obamacare.

20. You’re forced to awkwardly say what you’re thankful for.

...so how many shots do you expect to take, eh?

If I were an American playing your game, I'd be stone cold sober after your #1 ("moist"), because I'd be in fits of laughter and not able to drink any more *. But the same game could be played with most English families at Christmas; I must try it!

I wish you all a pleasant celebration with your families tomorrow.

* moist is not a dirty word, unlike "crevice" which is [/Blackadder]
