Sloshed!

A "Favorite Comic Book Artist" discussion over at the Hero Games discussion boards led me indirectly to this bit from Ben and Alice:

Rob Liefeld drinking game

The rules are as follows:

Read any comic both drawn and written by Rob Liefeld (X-Force, Youngblood, Brigade, etc.)

Take 1 drink for every time the following occur:

* clenched teeth
* mouth open really wide in battle cry
* action shot where background is just abstract colored space
* leg of running/jumping character positioned so that you can only see thigh
* spray of bullets that doesn't hit anybody
* large gun that shoots colored blasts of indeterminate nature
* character or team moves into/out of another dimension or otherwise warps
* character seeming to fly, who cannot actually fly
* character who is not invulnerable casually jumps out of plane/space ship
* indoor floor that is colored green, silver or red


And that doesn't even cover the bonus round.

Good thing none of the regular contributors to this blog are drinkers....

15 years ago, that game would have been right up my alley. We used to play the Star Trek drinking game back in the day. Each person took the name of a main character: Kirk, Spock, McCoy. Whenever your particular character was called by name, you drank. Everyone also had to drink at the sound of a communicator beep/signal, a jump to warp, a transport, and a red alert. Everyone chugged a drink if Kirk "scored," if you know what I mean. I'm sure there were other rules I'm not remembering.

That was probably the point of the game, wasn't it...?
