We get some feedback from WMU students about all the stuff they hate...
07 University of
Western Mountain:
CONTINUED ONour PAGE 11... We check out sister
school in Libya!
It was around 9A.M. on a Tuesday as students began to flutter towards two large flat screen TVs at the entrance of the Bernhard Center. Some with coffee, others bursting with strange pre-10A.M. energy that only belongs to freshmen or people with an Adderall prescription. Few could divert their attention away from the glowing monitors for more than a quick second. One could argue we were like moths, but moths usually have a flame or a jittery light bulb; all we were staring at was a countdown clock. It could have been a bomb for all we knew. It seems one either had no idea what Operation Historic Moment was by the time it happened, or you had already heard enough of it days before it was set to occur. It had a truly bizarre sense of promoting itself: guys in gold body suits (think greenman, but gold like it was from a gay bar’s promo wardrobe) carried ten feet long poles with signs telling of Operation Historic Moment looming in the future like an asteroid hitting campus. Other than that, it seems promotions were relatively subtle. Yes, there was press on the commotion but there wasn’t any big fuss on Western’s homepage or GoWMU, just an email list one could sign up for on Operation Historic Moment’s webpage. Obviously this would be a historic moment, but now it was like it was going to be an exclusive VIP historic moment. You had to know a guy who knew a guy to get in on this dank history. As the timer on the flat screen neared its historic conclusion, the amount of people swelled to nearly 100 inside the now-small lobby of the Bernhard center. This was the only tangible location one could go to watch it other than streaming it live from OHM’s website, so a sense of superiority filled the air, like we were there for it man! This is our Woodstock bro! Then the timer stopped and everyone blankly stared at the monitor as nothing happened. The screen stayed blank for a few minutes, and then the webcast of Dunn shot on for a second, and then crashed again. “Hit F5!” someone yelled, but nothingness continued to fill the void white screen as people began to shuffle out in small flocks.

A student would have to give no shits about Western if they have not heard by now, but WMU clearly had a historic donation announced on that day. $100 million dollars donated for any purpose is amazing, let alone for a university that stands in the shadow of two, dare I say, more historic Michigan universities. It also goes without saying that a private medical school will add nothing but prestige to WMU in the future, and for those with degrees from the university. One realization couldn’t be escaped though: why was everyone so damn smug about this? Around 9:45 or so in the Bernhard Center, word had leaked about the donation amongst those who stuck around. Reactions ranged from “Well, I’m already a student here so who cares?” to “I woke up this early for this?” We all know that school spirit is as fictional as an honest reality show, but is it impossible to be slightly happy for something that doesn’t involve you? Students alone can’t be crucified here: the title “Operation Historic Moment” implied that the university had done something historic. After all, it was an “Operation,” with a capital “O,” but that Operation was performed by the person donating, not the school. Not to view this awesome gift through a pessimistic filter, but the donator did all of the heavy lifting in this act, WMU just caught the bag of cash. It’s like having your parents buy you the 7th largest mansion as a wedding gift and turning to your wife with hysterics yelping “We did it! WE DID IT SYLVIA! Let’s make some KIDS!” The legacy of this donation will surely obscure any silly event used to promote it. As stated prior, no amount of snobbery will prevent this from meaning great things for the future of this up-and-coming university, but it should serve as a lesson in humility. There’s a time to be prideful and there’s definitely a time to be a belligerent braggart. Not to say that the students or faculty were 100% either of these in the early hours of March 22nd, but attitudes were shown that will hopefully not go down in the history of the moment.

riddle answer So a lot of people tried getting last week’s riddle...and a lot of people got it wrong. Idiots. Anyway, the correct answer was, “Our pick for March Madness is Richmond.” Okay, maybe we’re the idiots. But picture by picture, this is what it was: Hour + pick + four (loko) + march + mad + nest + is + rich + man. Get it? Ahhhhhh, now it all makes sense. Maybe next time boys and girls, maybe next time.

Drinking in the Dorms Made Easy Alyssa Mae wrote this Drinking in the dorms is “against the rules,” but the tenants of civil disobedience state that if you don’t believe in a rule, you shouldn’t follow it. With that in mind, here’s how to best drink in the dorms. 1. The bag - So, you got some 21-year-old or a friend with a fake I.D. to buy you some Everclear and now you’re sitting in the car thinking “How the hell am I going to get this past the RAs at the front desk?” Well you should’ve thought about that before you got the booze. Now you’re forced to sit in the parking lot like a stalker to down the whole bottle alone. Here’s to alcohol poisoning! - What should you have done? For girls this is easy since big purses are in! For guys you can always bring a girl with you. But if you’re one of those losers who have no female friends, you can always go with a backpack.
2. Getting it in - DON’T LOOK SUSPICIOUS! Everyone makes that obvious and stupid mistake of walking into the lobby with that “I’m doing something wrong” grin. Chatting with your friends while walking past your RA about how wasted you are going to get also isn’t the smartest idea. - Just walk in and ACT NORMAL! Smile at those front desk workers (if you’re usually that friendly), get out your ID and go to the elevator towards your room. It’s not rocket science. 3. The elevator - If you’re like my roommate and I and live on one of a dorm’s highest floors then you take the elevator quite frequently. When planning on bringing booze into the elevator you should always check who is waiting for the elevator first. If it’s an RA, suck it up lazy ass and take the stairs. It’s better to be safe than have an accidental slip and end up having to go to “Life Choices” class for $40 at the University Substance Abuse Center. You meet great new drinking buddies there, but it’s not worth the price.
4. The hallway - Many people make the mistake of getting off of the elevator, bursting into giggles, and speeding walking down the hallway to drink their watermelon Burnett’s. If you were an RA and you saw some dumbasses doing that would you think they’re not doing anything suspicious? Nope! SO DON’T DO IT!! - Another thing to watch out for is RAs on rounds. When you get off the elevator or out of the stairwell continue your typical lobby behavior and act normal. Don’t speed walk, and don’t be all giggly like you know you are doing something wrong. RA’s might not be the biggest partiers, but they’re not brainless.
5. The room - As a person who has experience with alcohol in the dorms (and was written up for it), the number one thing not to do is be overly obnoxious or play your music insanely loud. Trust me on this one, it just draws unnecessary attention to your room. - Always keep your door locked! You never know what disrespectful RA is going to just waltz on in or what drunk friend of yours will just throw open the door as the RAs are walking by. - IF a RA does come to your door DO NOT answer the door until ALL of your booze is hidden. A noise violation is no big deal, but watching all of your alcohol be dumped down the sink is miserable. It’s like when you were a little kid and saved up your allowance for the ice cream man, but the mean bully took that colorful Superman from you, it’s just heartbreaking. If you follow these rules you should be able to save yourself from multiple very bad things. An alcohol violation is one of them. These rules will also save you from sitting alone in your car trying to drink your moneys worth of booze because you didn’t think through how to get it into the dorms. They’ll try to stop us anyway possible, but drinking in the dorms will never come to an end!

TOP 10
Worst Things You Can Hear in College 10. “You’re under arrest” Three terrible words. Also terrible when accompanied by sirens or someone shouting, “The cops are here!” while you’re holding an alcoholic drink in your under 21 hand. Treat any warning of the pigs as an automatic reflex (like sneezing and closing your eyes), and get the fuck out of there. If you don’t,you may find yourself using your one phone call to holla at your boss, telling him you might be a little late to work this morning. 9. A fart loud enough to kill any boner Maybe you were the farter, or maybe you were the fartee, but either way the sound of a serious toot during a hot and heavy petting session is simply not okay. Take control of your hole.
Well That’s Annoying Dana Borzea wrote this The other day I was driving home from class on West Michigan and was stuck behind the metro bus dropping people off while it stopped every 20 seconds. It was traffic so I couldn’t move in the other lane for like 5 minutes. That was fucking annoying. I then realized that there are a lot of things that piss me off. Like when you go to Pita Pit and they don’t have chipotle sauce and my pita just isn’t the same. Or after a verbal argument you think of so many sick comebacks you wish you could’ve said then. It’s irritating when other people decide your business is their business, I thought we all graduated high school a while ago. Oh and Crocs. Since a lot of shit irritates me, I decided to ask people all over Western’s campus what annoys the crap out of them. Broncos, let the venting begin! Allison B. Ryan E. “Unnecessary girl drama makes me want to punch an infant.” “When people touch my flow.” “When people say they quit smoking, but do it when they’re drunk. “When people try to act hard all the time, but they’re the softest Um hellllllo it still counts!” person. They talk shit, but they can’t back it up.” “When anorexic skinny girls call themselves fat…I literally respond with ‘yeah you probably should stop eating, I so agree with you.” Dilara K. “I throw up literally every time I drink, even if it’s after 4 shots. “People who chew and eat with their mouth open. It is really obThat’s probably one of the most annoying things I’ve ever encounnoxious and gross.” tered.” Mike O. Travis H. “People who are too environmentally conscience.” “Women drivers.” “Dirty snow.” “Teachers who have Facebook and add students and ignore some Marissa G. students’ request…yeah it’s still pending, fuck you.” “When people respond with just ‘k’ in a text. Like really? Really?!” “People who have their status related to their relationship status. Example being ‘I wish I wasn’t so lonely’ or ‘she is the best thing to Chase O. have ever happened to me’. Shut the hell up, people care as much “When people get really close in your person space and try to talk as they do about your Farmville.” to you and you keep backing up and they keep staying close to you. “The male Ugg Boot.” Like back the fuck up.” “People tuck napkins in their shirt.” Elisa A. “When you hit every single fucking traffic light down West Michi“When people are screaming and running down the dorm halls at gan.” 3A.M during the week.” “When a drunk person says ‘I’m fine I’m not drunk at all’ but Carl K. they’re a complete slop mess.” “Ex-girlfriends who stalk your life on Facebook.” Laura M Tyler Q. “When people don’t text you back and you know they have their “When people drive under the speed limit, like hurry the fuck up phone because it’s always glued to their hand.” grandma.” “When people don’t feed your fish when you’re gone and Nemo “When the condom rips.” dies.” “Girls who wear leggings for pants and they reallyyyy shouldn’t be Alexa S. allowed to.” “When you get cum in your eye.” “Stage 5 clingers!” Charlie P. “People that stare at themselves in the mirror at the gym and flex.” “People who stare at you while driving as if you did something wrong, but in fact you didn’t.” “Those who think, and act, as if they are superiors to others, but they are so not.” “People that leave their shopping cart in the middle of the aisle blocking everyone trying to get through.” “The Rachel Maddow show.” Mike S. “Dealing with money and alcohol because no ever has anything besides 20’s and it’s always a huge mess.” Jobin D. “When your Friday morning buzz turns into a Friday morning hangover during your 8A.M. class.” Pat “Bruce Lee.”
Krystyn N. “When I go to the grocery store and there’s no self check out and only 2 cashiers.” Pra-may T. “When my roommate used the last of the toilet paper rolls and doesn’t replace them.” “When people don’t reply to my text, but then I realize that I never sent it.” “When you hold the door open for a girl and she doesn’t even utter a thanks” “Music videos that have nothing to do with the song really, whats that about?!” “When I need to pause YouTube videos and wait for them to load, internet sucks at my house.” “People who violate the law of food. Cereal HAS to go in the bowl before the milk.” So that’s it. Apparently no one here is happy.
8. The puke & splash after a hard night’s liquor binge For some, puking might be one of the worst sounds imaginable. I’ve been around people who blow chunks at the sound or sight of other people blowing chunks, which results in an all-around chunkfest. If you’re like me and don’t cry at the sound/sight of people ralphing, give yourself a pat on the back for not being one of the people who will be weeded out by natural selection (weaklings).
7. Alarm clock on a Monday morning Time purposely goes faster from the time you fall asleep until the time you need to wake up in the morning. It’s science. And when that wretched alarm clock starts going off, it’s always the last sound you want to hear… it sounds more like Satan’s laugh each time. If you really want to fight back and stick it to the man, smash your alarm clock every morning with a bat. 6. “Sorry, this ID isn’t real”- Den Clerk Like, how do you even respond to that? When someone knows your Idaho ID is not real, it’s not because they know that nobody actually lives in Idaho, but because you’re a fool and you’re fooling nobody. At least “you” are an organ donor.
5. Neighbors who suck at all hours of the day What do you do when one-legged hippos are living above you, drunken crybabies are living next to you, and chronic coughers living below you? Invest in a drum set and don’t ever learn to play correctly.
4. Your rival’s fight song blasting your ears off That’s your cue to drive your car into the middle of Waldo Stadium and blast the WMU fight song out of your speakers until your car explodes and everyone is in awe of how ridiculously badass your death was.
3. Any bell or siren interrupting your productivity Monthly dorm fire alarms, the library bell reminding you they’re about to close and you need to get the hell out and have a social life, fire-truck sirens when you’re trying to nap (napping is productivity), or even someone’s obnoxious cell-phone ringer during an exam. All of these little sounds can make even the most tolerant human die a little every time they’re heard. 2. Other people’s sex It’s not even the farm animal-type sounds people make, but the sound of squishiness like someone stuffing raw chicken in jar of mayonnaise over and over that is so uncomfortable that my ears fall off. If you’re going to boing, at least turn on some loud music for everyone else’s sake.
1. “I’m pregnant” Well, fuck. I guess there’s always that place on West Michigan Ave... I don’t think anyone actually knows what its name is, but they proudly display a sign saying, “Worried You’re Pregnant?” Why, yes. Yes I am.

WMU v. Tripoli State University

Edward Tweed wrote this Hello friends and fellow students of the beloved Western Michigan University, the jewel of Kalamazoo…ish. If you’re anything like me, then you probably spend far too much time post-high school graduation finding older kids to buy you alcohol and not enough time planning your rapidly approaching collegiate career. So here we are folks, business majors or some shit in a frozen forest of bump-its and regret. We may not be pre-law at the Noses to the Sky University of Ann Arbor or studying physics with Steven Hawkins at K College, but we wear our brown and gold proudly and those aforementioned kids are pretentious douchebags anyway. Just because our college isn’t the college of colleges there is no reason to fret, worse choices do exist. I know, I know, there is no Tripoli State University, but there is a college in Libya that we share more in common with than you might think: University of the Western Mountain in Zawia. I know what you’re thinking “NO WAY that college has the word “Western” in it too! Trippyyy.” Well, turn down Jessica Black on your iTunes and read on. The University of the Western Mountain was founded in 1983 by Moammar Ghadhafi’s brutal regime and ranks 9287th on www.4icu.org’s World University Ranking system (probably the most legit World University Ranking system that shows up first when searched on Google). Western was founded in 1903, ranks 9019 schools higher than its Libyan counterpart, and was founded by a dude named Waldo. Need

I say more? Yes, I do, but unfortunately the information I’ve just listed is about the extent of the history and statistics of UWM (hey we even share a similar acronym) so the rest of this article is speculation, but I know a guy who knows a guy who stole some stuff and he told me this shits all true. Located on 110 Jamal Abednasser Street in Az Zawiyah, Zawia between a one-stop rebel killing shop and a bomb crater the size of the Seelye Center, the University of the Western Mountain is only an RPG’s shot away from the Mediterranean. Although its municipalities and curriculum and willingness to tolerate any criticism at all are nowhere near WMU, UWMs proximity to world’s most awesome body of water allows for some pretty kickass weather, touché Libyan colleges. Beaches and bitches all year round of them! What do Woman’s Studies, Philosophy, Humanities, and freedom of speech have in common? They don’t exist at the University of the Western Mountain, but if you do decide you want to spend a semester abroad in Zawia don’t worry, you’re in luck. UWM has recently added a brand new recreational center, a woodshop, and four new dry dormitories to its campus. Yes, you read correct. Alcohol is illegal in Libya, and that’s the one huge difference between them and our wonderful school, we got the nickname Wastern for a reason. Although, all facilities on campus are scheduled for an impromptu demolition sometime between now and soon so you’d better get

Director:
C+
Duncan Jones AKA David Bowie’s son
Your Highness
Starring:
April 8th
Jake Gyllenhaal, Michelle Monaghan, Vera Farmiga, Jeffrey Wright
Starring: Danny R. McBride, James Franco, Natalie Portman, Zooey Deschanel What You Need to Know: Accents, swords, monsters, and a whole lot of fake seriousness. McBride is a lazy prince who puffs on wizard weed, and Franco plays a sexy prince who must go on a quest to save his fathers kingdom. What We Think: Stones who actually take care of themselves and look good? We’ll take it! Although this could be a pseudo Monthy Python, we’re not sure if it’s going to be as good, ironic, or British. Hmm, perhaps anything Natalie Portman touches doesn’t turn to gold.
Arthur
April 8th
Starring: Russell Brand, Helen Mirren, Greta Gerwig, Jennifer Garner What You Need to Know: Oh no! Arthur (Russell Brand) has to decide between an arranged marriage and lots of moolah, or an uncertain future with the love of his life. Good thing he’s got a nanny (Helen Mirren) to help with super personal life decisions! What We Think: What a shocker, Russell Brand playing a spoiled, hard-partying dude that thinks he can get by on his accent and his charms. And maybe his looks. So, sure, he’s a bit obnoxious, but that doesn’t mean we won’t be slightly entertained.
Scream 4
April 15th
Starring: Neve Campbell, David Arquette, Courteney Cox, Emma Roberts What You Need to Know: Since you probably don’t remember the 1996 box office success because you were too busy trying to play footsie in your parents’ basement, all you really need to know is that a masked dude is killing people. What We Think: Hell yeah! There’s nothing quite like a classic horror film that might not be Oscar-worthy, but is entertaining and nostalgic all at the same time. Be on the lookout for creeps at the movie theater who will inevitably wear that damn mask, man those guys need to talk to some girls.
Synopsis:
A man bombs Chicago so Jake Gyllenhaal needs to save the day. Take that, New York. All you guys get is Spiderman! I need to stop getting excited about things. This was a film I was really looking forward to seeing; it had a great director, a cool premise, and a star who usually picks pretty solid movies. But once again Hollywood has taken my hopes and dreams and crushed them like some sort of robot designed to crush intangible objects. The cool premise of Source Code is that star Jake Gyllenhaal is a military man whose mind gets placed in the body of a dude who died in a train explosion in Chicago. He gets to experience the last eight minutes of this man’s life over and over again under the assumption that he’ll figure out who exploded the train. So it’s sort of like Groundhog Day meets that ending part of Speed where they end up on a train. Of course Gyllenhaal’s not actually in the real body of any man; that guy died! What he goes into is an alternate reality/computer program where everyone acts the same and situations fold out as they normally would, but he can affect the present and future of just this alternate reality with his actions. He isn’t actually trying to save the people on the train though; they’re all dead too! He needs to find the bomber so the government can

stop him before he bombs anything else. I was wondering if the government has this crazy complex program that can essentially create a whole new world, why does Gyllenhaal need to go into the body of a different man? Like can’t they just put his body onto the train, Matrix style, thus avoiding the hassles of him dealing with being a different person? I didn’t worry about this too long because the guy who he goes into has a cute girl with him who Gyllenhaal decides would be perfect to try and woo whilst in the middle of his bomber pursuit. That’s called conflict! Again, overall it sounded pretty cool, but Source Code just had too many little things that made the whole thing really unbelievable, even for a science fiction flick. I enjoy sci-fi and I can get behind whatever crazy technology the characters use, what I didn’t buy was the other, non-sciencey stuff: actual human interactions. Like how Gyllenhaal immediately falls for the cute girl (Michelle Monaghan) he’s with on the train, and I mean immediately. Like, he’s only in the train simulation twice before I can already tell he wants to be in her; seems a bit desperate! Also, his character never seems to un-
derstand the purpose of the simulation; like he’s too worried with hurting people and making mistakes even though he can just go in and out of the train world easily. Still, I had a pretty positive view of the movie until the ending presented a bunch of complications. I wish I could reveal spoilers, but of course my two readers would kill me! But if you see the film, you can play the fun game of naming every problem Jake Gyllenhaal’s character would have in the coming weeks, months, and years after the film ends. There’s a ridiculously large amount of them. Yet for a modern sci-fi action thriller, this one isn’t awful. It’s nowhere near as good as director Duncan Jones previous effort, Moon, but it has its moments. One of the best things was that every thing was very understated. There was no screaming, in your face intensity or people flipping out on the train. Things were calm, yet there was still an immediacy and importance of the situation. It’s the same quietness that gave Moon its mystique, but everything just doesn’t click as well here. It has time travel and different realities; maybe they should’ve just repurposed it as Donnie Darko 2: “Train”ing Day.”

The Black Sheep Interviews: Atomic Tom Luke White is the frontman for up-and-coming New York rockers Atomic Tom. He took some time out of his busy schedule of making music and YouTube videos to talk with us about subway weirdos and Star Wars. For that, we thank him. it. Even on the subway people really liked it, and it’s reflected The Black Sheep: How did Atomic Tom get together? in the video. Luke White: Six years ago I started writing demos for the TBS: So did you have to ask all your friends not to call band I wanted to put together in New York. I brought Phil, you during those 20 minutes? the bass player on, and a couple years later I was able to Luke: (Laughs) No. We actually practiced putting our phones steal a friend of mine, Eric, to be a guitar player.

The Kills
Parents with high blood pressure beware.
I most certainly am not intimidated by The Kills. Instead of being afraid by the duo’s name, tough looks and even tougher music, I’ve instead completely embraced their entire aura. Their music has that edgy, dark feel; I feel like I’m wearing a leather jacket and an angry look, one from having just punched someone in the face and then the stomach, snatching their drugs and never thinking for a moment that I wouldn’t get away with it. Okay, so this will never actually happen, but that’s just what I was told to do after listening to Blood Pressures backwards and on mushrooms. Kidding! Blood Pressures starts out like an irregular beating, thumping heart with “Future Starts Slow,” setting the tone for the rest of the album of dark beats by Jamie Hince and genuine-rock lady voice – hell yeah girl power– from Allison Mosshart, who has worked with multiple artists in both the US and the UK, most famously Jack White with The Dead Weather. The Kills’ lead single “Satellite” is along the same vein as their opener, in that it’s dark and low, with a chanting, catchy chorus that is ideal for a first-time listener like myself. The rest of the album continues in the same fashion of fast-paced, high-powered catchiness, although it wouldn’t be surprising to think that, in that exact way, it lulls a bit. “DNA” is another one of my favorites on the album; a slower paced tune that still has Mosshart’s signature low voice and repetitive, comfortable chorus.
others
B+
“The Last Goodbye” is one of the last songs on the album that is laughably out of place and must be mentioned, as it kind of embarrasses me to listen to. Mosshart’s usually hard voice is soft and vaguely unrecognizable, very Jackie DeShannon of the 70s hit “What The World Needs Now Is Love.” Weird, right? I guess on the inside of every pin-straight dark haired girl is a heart that just needs some sweet love, but The Kills need not venture into the world of ballads, as they hardly seem like the type that would slowdance anyway. While anyone might agree that The Kills aren’t bad, I can see how this isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. It isn’t “feel-good” music and it’s hardly commercial, but The Kills is one of the most genuine bands I’ve heard in a while. Their not-giving-a-fuck attitude combined with both members 10+ years of experience in playing music results in quality indie rock that will easily stand the test of trendy time, bypassing anyone dumb artist who is just on the road for some buzz and to get buzzed. Yeah that sounds awesome, but I’d rather continuing fantasizing about being a hard ass and stealing drugs. Sounds Like: Genuine leather, whiskey and a pack of menthols.

record. I’ve always thought that it was arranged and written so well. I have a lot of respect for U2. TBS: What music do you like that, you know, no one else would think you like? Luke: Robyn. Definitely Robyn. TBS: If you could have any mythical creature as a pet, which one would you choose? Luke: A Tauntaun from Star Wars, I think. TBS: Sir, I too know about Star Wars, and of all the random animals and aliens in that universe, you choose a Tauntaun? Luke: You know, Empire Strikes Back is my favorite movie. So I’ll still go Tauntaun. TBS: But even on Hoth there’s a Wampa! It’s like a big snow Sasquatch! You could have had a Wampa! Luke: You can’t judge my choice! TBS: Alright, we’ll leave it at that. Luke: It’s a mythical creature!

bartender
WEEK
of the
Age: 24 Nickname: Gizmo and Diesel Funniest thing you’ve seen on the job: This drunk guy actually jumped over the bar while I was working. Being a bartender is the shit and this guy really wanted to join me I guess. Any stories with you plus cops plus alcohol: Central Western weekend my sophomore year me and a few of my buddies were up at Central and got pulled over by the 5-O. The worst part was that we were all wasted, 20 miles away from where we were staying, and the cop made us get out of the car and walk home. We had no coats or anything and had no idea where we actually were. The next morning we couldn’t remember where our car was and took us all day to find it, a total “dude, where’s my car?” moment. Most random place you’ve hooked up: At my job in high school…during my shift. Ever gone streaking while drunk?: Shockingly never What type of drunk are you? A happy, social drunk. Craziest thing you’ve done while intoxicated: There’s a cemetery right next to my house so one night me and my buddies hit golf balls at the headstones. Serious question, beer pong or flip cup?: Definitely beer pong. Now, what’s your favorite drinking game?: Presents and assholes! What’s your biggest pet peeve about being a bartender?: Trying to figure out of the people in the bar are really, really hammered or just really, really stupid. Been drunk anywhere that you probably shouldn’t have been drunk?: Yup, my high school graduation.

Jacks and Fives Do you like mystery? Allure? Drinking? Well, you’ll get all three when you’re blackout drunk, but you’ll get all three playing this nifty little game as well. Number of Players: At least 2. What You Need: A deck of cards, some sip and a table. Intoxication Level: You’ll need five people to jacks you off.
How to Play: -Before the game begins, deal four cards to each player. -Players may not look at their first two cards, ever. Players may look at the other two cards. -The goal of the game is to get the lowest sum of the four cards. -Jacks and fives are worth zero. Queens and kings are worth ten. Aces are worth one. The rest of the cards are worth the number on the card (ex: a four of spades is worth four). - The game begins with a player drawing from the top of the deck. The player then has two options: place the card face up in a new pile, or add the card in his hand. -If a player chooses to add a card to his hand, then he must discard one of the four cards currently in his hand in a face-up pile next to the deck. He may discard one of the two cards he is not allowed to look at. -The next player may pick up the face-up card to add to their hand or may draw from the top of the deck. Again, that player must place one card in the face-up pile. -If a player thinks they have the best hand, they may knock during the start of their turn instead of drawing a card. All other players have the opportunity to draw one more card. -Players reveal their cards. The player with the highest total drinks their score.
Redman and Method Man. Bonnie and Clyde. DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince. Milk and Cereal. Yup, these are the greatest pairings of all time. But we thought “Hmm, how can we make this better?” Well, by adding more sugar, of course! “Sugar sprinkled atop Will Smith you say? That’s crazy!” No you dumbass, put the bong down. What You’ll Need: A couple scoops of vanilla ice cream, one to two cups of Fruity Pebbles, milk and crushed ice “to taste.” Cook Time: About four minutes. Fatty Factor: Sugar and fat mixed with obscene amounts of sugar? Yup, you’re a fatty! Let’s Get Baked: - Put vanilla ice cream into a blender with a cup or so of Fruity Pebbles (or any kind of sweet cereal that you enjoy), a splash of milk (depending on how thick you like your shake), and ice (to make it colder and to add some texture). - Stick a straw in it or grab a spoon and enjoy! Of course you can top it with whip cream, chocolate sauce, cherries… but now we’re just getting turned on. A brain freeze will occur, so make sure to balance out your milkshake with a big ole’ bag of chips on the side.
