For those of you who are not familiar with this explosive idea, here's a run-down of the rules:
(This, folks, is the enemy)
Myself, and a team of champions decided to take down this horrible beast. A few drinks down, and we were ready to play. I decided to go with beer, as many of the others did, and we fired up a few assorted episodes to take the plunge. Recap of the night after the jump.
The host of the party had just purchased a 46" Sony Bravia HDTV, and man, what a beauty. Nothing better to watch old cartoons on and get drunk, am I right? The night consisted of 3 episodes, in order:
Episode 301 - A Mudkip Mission
Being fans of Pokemon and internet fads, we decided to fire up this particular episode first. I mean, c'mon, i herd u liek mudkipz...
(They're cute enough to choke to death)
Thankfully, the rules do not state anything about these little guys. We would have been done right then and there. Surprisingly enough, Pikachu kept his god awful mouth shut. We were all very thankful. The entire episode left us all about 2 beers down and feeling high energy. Some party goers were a little bit woozy, but lightweights be lightweights.
My level of intoxication: Man, I need to drink more!
Episode 141 - Good 'Quil Hunting
Opening thoughts on this episode. I hate puns. I hate them with a passion. As much as I make puns, they definitely irk me when they're not mine. I think that's the point though. Regardless, we all relieved ourselves and grabbed a few more drinks, we figured we would need them.
This episode followed Ash and some dick head that wanted to catch a Cyndaquil that they were both following to catch. Needless to say, Pokeballs were thrown, and drinks were had consequentially. Team Rocket made their classic appearance in a rather large mech suit designed to look like Meowth. You'd think with the amount that they spend on gadgets and gimmicks they'd give up and live on a beach somewhere. I mean, Jesse and James are married, right?
(Also possibly gender confused)
Cyndaquil ends up becomming a badass and helps take down Team Rocket's giant robo-cat (strangely resembling something from Samurai Pizza Cats). The vehicle was lightning resistant, but apparently they overlooked heat shielding in their overbudget.
(Never. Overlook. Fire)
Ash and his new found friend super douche battle over who has the rights over the Cyndaquil, which Ash caught after he burned the crap outta Gigazord (wait, wrong show... Also, drink!) and if my days with a Gameboy Color taught me anything, it was his. Dickbutt loses the battle and tries to catch the little guy with a net... Only to end up on fire. See the picture above if you need to be reminded of why you never overlook fire. All in all, another 2 beers down and ready to rock.
My level of intoxication: Feelin' good. Little foamy, but here goes nothing.
Episode 91 - Bye, Bye Psyduck
Our final adventure of the night... And what an adventure... I highly recommend this episode for anyone who wants to try this, because in the span of about 35 seconds you will have one full drink down after Misty and her new compadre finish gushing about water type Pokemon.
(This goes on for a while, better grab another drink)
Not even into the episode, and I'm down a drink. The people around me are starting to slur and fall into themselves. Things are spiraling down as they often do when drinking games get involved. We actually had to stop and count the amount of times that the word Pokemon was mentioned in such a short span, so that everyone could catch up with it. Long story short: 7... I think... It's a little hazy.
Ultimately, the episode was not at all exciting. By this point we were all being loud and belligerent anyway. I got to bear witness to the remnants of my champions fall to pieces before me. It was kind of like 300, but more clothes involved.
(Ladies, this is totally my physique)
And that is where we brought this game to an end. In the span of an hour, I was 7 beers down and feeling fine. My compadres, however, were not so fortunate. I spent the rest of the night playing doctor for a drunk best friend and consoling his loved ones ensuring them that he would survive the night.
It was a successful night for all involved, including the one who passed out before midnight in his own vomit. Now that this is in the public domain, he will never live it down.
Oh i love a good drinking game.
ReplyDeleteSometime you should rent the old 1980s 'Flash Gordon' movie and do the following.
1 drink – every time you hear the sound effect when someone uses a ring
1 drink – every time you see a button that lists a disaster
1 drink – every time you see the word Flash
1 drink – every time you see the Ming symbol (it basically looks like a stylized Freemason symbol, imagine an upside down v crossing a regular v, you’ll know it when you see it)
1 drink – every time someone gets hit with a laser
The Queen Challenge: Whenever the Flash Gordon theme song is playing and they say “Flash,” everyone must drink. Throw in an extra drink every time you hear an awesome guitar solo.
The Perverts Challenge: Anytime you see something or can infer something dirty, take a drink.
Peanut Gallery Challenge: whenever the background characters start chanting Flash's name (and they will... a lot) chug the drink in your hand.
