Back-to-College Conversations

Hey guys, I'm back! It's been a semi-rough month, which is why there was a lack of updates. But now that college is starting up again, I, oddly, have a bit more time!

Unfortunately, much of the time that I spent over the past bunch of weeks did not involve viewing any films or anything; mostly work. However, I'll entertain you for a little as I compile more material, with a unique drinking game known as the "Back-to-College Conversations Drinking Game."

Because it is just that time of year. When everyone starts school again. And everyone has the same set of talks over and over and over and over and over and OVER again!

Seriously, how many times do you have to say where you're living? Especially if you live in an actual apartment or house, and thus haven't moved?



So, enjoy the "Back-to-College Conversations Drinking Game".

To play the game, you're going to need a drink that you can carry around at all times. Or a notepad. Either take a gulp of your drink or make a mark on your notepad any time that any of the following happens:

-- Someone says that they haven't seen someone else in a while.
-- Someone says that "we should totally hang out."
-- Someone complains about how many credits they're taking.
-- Someone says where they're living now.
-- People agree to meet at the school cafeteria.
-- Someone complains about book prices.
-- Someone recommends joining a club (two if it's "to meet new people")

Take two if you are involved in any of these.

Later, gather with your group of friends. Figure out how many strikes/gulps you have taken over the day, and everyone must drink that much beer.

Furthermore, as the night goes on, take shots when certain things pop up in conversation.

-- Complaints about schedule.
-- Love for schedule.
-- Complaints about a professor.
-- Love for a professor.
-- A liberal arts major talks about how much they're going to have to write.
-- A science major mentions their workload for this semester (+1 if it's in the amount of credits they're taking)
-- Someone complains that they want the semester to be over.

Hang out, meet again, greet again, drink again. Drinking is a social lubricant, after all. Have fun, and welcome back students! Summer is, in the non-technical sense, over, but the games have just begun.

This is not a drinking game. This is just drinking.
