DNC Drinking Game

August 25th, 2008 by Kevin

As you probably know, the Democrat National Convention starts this week. It will be covered non-stop 24/7 and the media will go into near orgasmic frenzy over the coronation of the Messiah. It’s gonna take a strong heart, a sound mind and a herculean liver to make it through the week.

We present the official EckerNet DNC Drinking Game…

Take one drink for each of the following:

  • You hear the word “Change”, “Hope”, “Audacity” or something is declared a distraction
  • A female member of the audience passes out
  • The debate over global warming is declared over
  • The Georgian conflict is mentioned
  • Halliburton or Enron are blamed for something
  • Someone brags about how “green” the convention is
  • Someone blames Bush for anything
  • The camera focuses on any minority

Take two drinks for each of the following:

  • You hear the word “Nazi”, “Facist”, “Neo-Con” or “diversity”
  • A draft is mentioned.
  • Someone makes mention of their plan for peace anywhere
  • Someone claims to “support our troops”

Take three drinks for each of the following:

  • Iraq is mentioned
  • Anyone mentions their own military service
  • Camera catches someone in mid-yawn
  • A protester is dragged out of the room
  • Anyone admits they made a mistake

Finish your drink for the following:

  • Obama makes it through his speech without a single “uh”
  • Blogs, bloggers, or blogging is mentioned
  • A fistfight ensues

Down a liter of your favorite alcohol if:

  • Karl Rove makes an appearance
  • Al Gore removes his head, proving he’s really a robot
  • Cheney appears and shoots someone
  • Drink another bottle if he does it on purpose
  • Ted Kennedy apologizes for killing Mary Jo Kopechne

For multiple players:

  • Every time the “rich” are mentioned, the person with the most in their drink has to “donate” some of his/her drink to the others in the room.
  • If “for the children” is uttered, the oldest person in the room, has to refill everyone’s drink

X rated version:

  • Every time global warming, Al Gore, polar bears, Katrina or carbon credits are mentioned, lose an article of clothing.

DISCLAIMER : We take no responsibility for anything that happens as a result of actually participating in this game. And by anything I mean anything. That includes drunkeness, liver failure, pregnancy, vomiting, divorce, marriage, adoption, restraining orders, etc.

    YOu forgot to mention, in your disclaimer, the very real possibility of death. Of course, the worst effects of the convention could be avoided by being in an alcohol-induced coma. Those who do not participate in the game should avoid operating heavy machinery, like voting machines, for the next 3 months.
