real mans drinking "game" is to see who gets the most drunk and does the dumbest poo poo (everyone has to drink the same amount obv no mormons allowed)

most functional person at the end of the night magnanimously pays the bar tab of shame

this is not a game so much as a test to see who is the most functional alcoholic, particularly the next morning

got dat wmd posted:

he got the "loving stupid" part right, but the "not drinking" part completely wrong

(actually, most of them are cheesy showcases of trivia and cliches and not actually meant to be played, but i'm pretty sure that's not what he meant)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anime_club

Typically anime clubs exhibit shows in their original Japanese language track with English subtitles. Dependent upon policy of the club, anime fansubs or localized dubs can be shown.

Larger clubs can have multiple viewing rooms. Usually one room features localized anime and the other fansubs. The fansub room can also be known as the 'divx' room, named after the popular video codec.

Due to the long running and episodic nature of some anime, exhibition is scheduled in blocks with breaks. Often, a twenty six episode series will be screened over the period of several months.

There are also informal policies in some club circles regarding the total length of a viewed show. For example, Bleach and InuYasha run for nearly two-hundred episodes each. At this length, a club may be perpetually showing episodes, effectively depriving another show of that spot. Additionally, it may be difficult for new members of the club to follow or become interested in a storyline that has already progressed far.

quote:

Fanny scratching in 18th-century London's Cock Lane was so notorious
that interested bystanders often blocked the street. It became the
focus of a religious controversy between Methodists and orthodox
Anglicans, and was reported on by celebrities of the period such as
Samuel Johnson. Charles Dickens referred to the phenomenon in several
of his books, including Nicholas Nickleby and A Tale of Two Cities, and
other Victorian authors also alluded to it in their work. One
enterprising resident diverted the crowds that gathered in Cock Lane by
allowing them to converse with a ghost he claimed was haunting his
home, to which he charged an entrance fee. Fanny scratching eventually
resulted in several prosecutions, and the pillorying of a father for
encouraging his 11-year-old daughter to take part.

quote:

H. Allen Smith wrote an article for True magazine in 1964, collected in Low Man Rides Again (1973) about a gentleman named O'Rourke whom he dubs the "Father of Octopus Wrestling." According to information Smith collected from Idwal Jones and other sources, O'Rourke and a partner developed a business in the late 1940s of fishing for octopuses with O'Rourke serving as live bait and his partner hauling him out of the water after an octopus was sufficiently wrapped around him.

also because they were really stupid and did stuff like bleeding people to treat diarrhea.

90% of the time all the tx you need is just drink water and take some salt + multivitamin. Back in the day that would have meant drink water and eat some salty spinach or something. Completely possible.
