US Presidential Debate Drinking Game

[Thorin]

Yeah, okay, this is for US politics, but still, pretty funny.  Basically, it's the rules on what words / actions make you take a drink, depending on who you're rooting for.  You'll probably be hosed within 20 minutes.

i'm a tad grumpy today

[Thorin]

Are you sick of the debate drinking game or of all the b.s. around the American presidential election?

Because I thought the Debate Drinking Game was something new (at least the latest set of rules for the latest master debators).

[Mr. Analog]

The drinking game I'm sure would land you in the hospital haha

But yeah, I'm sick of the election BS. I have a lot of friends/followers on social media who live in and around the USA and it's all they talk about ... for months.

[Thorin]

I'm pretty sure I'd be done in by the opening remarks, since I'm a lightweight at drinking.  I'd have to have a big meal first.

There was just as much BS and polarization leading up to the 2008 election, it's just that there was much more hope for sunshine and rainbows at the end of that election, whereas this time around there seems to be a much more morose tone.  At some point they're going to have to come to terms with just how much money they're spending compared to how much they take in, as well as how much their divisive politics is costing them.

Can't wait for the Canadian elections... :|

[Mr. Analog]

I just want to ignore it all and play video games ...

I find by not watching Cable TV I see very little of this other than the occasional mention in my news feeds online.

You are a lucky man, I barely watch news but I have a lot of friends who talk about this stuff constantly, if you could affix magnets to my eyes I could power my house.

But then you miss out on all those commercials!

Also, sometimes you'll miss out on good pilots for possibly good new shows.  For instance, have you heard of Last Resort?  The pilot made me want to see more.  And then of course there's Revolution which is bad but I find myself drawn to.  Both of these I discovered only because I had the TV on while doing things on the computer.

No, I get most of them and sometimes more.
