Drink Responsibly

  • a brain
  • 1 oz. common sense
Don't drink and drive. Don't use power tools or operate heavy machinery. Don't pick on those smaller than you, and for God's sake, definitely not those bigger than you! Don't try outrageous stunts that could cause bodily injury to you or others.

Egg Nog

  • 1 doz. eggs
  • pinch Baking Soda
  • 6 oz. rum
  • 2 lbs. granulated sugar
  • 32 oz. milk
  • 32 oz. light cream
  • 1.75 liter blended whiskey
  • nutmeg
The most delicious of all the nogs, egg nog is best served as a holiday beverage, or in July, to confuse religious zealots. Separate eggs and beat yolks and whites separately. Blend in baking soda, rum and sugar. Beat well and stir in milk, cream and whiskey. Chill overnight and garnish with nutmeg. If you have access to chemical apparati, distill nutmeg into mace and spray into the eyes of annoying, bell-ringing solicitors outside shopping malls.

Hair of the Dog

  • 1 alcoholic beverage per overnight guest
Always have a stash of alcohol on hand for hangover remedies. Not the greatest of cures for that socks-on-your-teeth feeling, but better than dealing with the reality of your overindulging ways.

Italian Surfer with a Russian Attitude

  • 1 oz. malibu rum
  • 1 oz. Amaretto

Kamikaze

  • 1 oz lime juice
  • 1 oz. triple sec
  • 1 oz. vodka
Shake and pour over ice. Sentimental for me because my father went down as a kamikaze pilot in World War II before he fathered me in '68. Wait a minute! It doesn't add up... maybe this was the first thing I got drunk on and that's where the whole sentimental thing comes in...

Lemonade

  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 tsp. powdered sugar
  • water
Mix lemon juice and sugar in glass with ice and add water till full. It's the way grandma used to make it. Cool and refreshing on a hot summer day. You know, back when I was a lad, just about your age, my grand mother used to make us pitchers of lemonade to sell on the street for a nickel. Old Doc Simpkins used to come by and buy up our entire stock, then send us off to the General Store with our shiny nickels to buy penny candies, so he could go inside and screw grandma.

Pleasuring Thyself (at the party)

Definitely not cool. Keep your hands off of your naughty no-no's until you're at home... alone... again...

Peeing (innappropriate places)

Never a good idea. Even if you're really drunk, find an appropriate place to let loose.

Sex on the Beach

  • 1 oz. vodka
  • 3/4 oz. triple sec
  • grapefruit juice
  • orange juice
A newly classic shooter. Not recommended for use with the Wheel, except for the occasional Social.

Sleeping (w/relative)

Sleeping with a relative of the party host is always considered bad ettiquette. Sleeping with your own relatives is only cool in West Virginia, Kentucky or Woody Allen's house.

Tidybowl

  • 1/2 oz. Vodka
  • 1/2 oz. Blue Curucao
  • 2 raisins
A truly digusting shooter to drink. Resembles two turds floating in blue toilet water. Seperates the men from the guys who like to watch freaky, kinky porn on the internet. Like with chickens and stuff.

Combine ingredients in mixing glass and shake well. Harder! No, no! Harder! Keep shaking! Come on, wussy, can't you even make water!
