This story is 100% true

me: I had a pitcher of margaritas last night. I swear I'm not an alcoholic.
moonlightalice: Uhhhm.
me: feiran just said she wouldn't play Scene It with me unless I had a handicap.
moonlightalice: omg
me: So instead of having only half the pitcher, I had all of it.
moonlightalice: You still beat the pants off her, yes?
me: Well, not pants-off beating. Especially not the last round where I had a 3 second lag handicap, too.
me: I beat her by about twice as many points. Usually, I can do 3x as many.
moonlightalice: Wow.
me: Yep. No one wants to play with me. I'll drink until they do!
moonlightalice: I've beaten you :D
me: It's true. But this version on the XBOX makes me more competitive. There's no chance.
moonlightalice: I think cumulatively I've seen more movies than you have.
me: But that doesn't seem to matter--whether I've seen movies or not. I know them. It's like osmosis.

Hm. I think this calls for a drunk-equalizing pair of contests. You drunk vs. me in Scene It, followed by me drunk vs. you in Rock Band. And make sure to download the new Jimmy Buffett pack to go with the drinking :)

That would be pretty mighty except that even sober my skills at that game are toilet-worthy and you're still good at Scene It sober!

Followed by the two of you sober versus Jethrien and I drunk playing Pictionary. Or maybe Password.

See, edgehopper and I don't know each other well enough to make that even remotely like fair, even if you're drunk.

Regardless, this set of challenges must be organized.

I think we need a few more barriers between chuckro and jethrien first. Like they aren't allowed to make eye contact or something.

3 feet of earth or stone, 1 foot of metal, or a thin coating of lead. No, wait, that's x-ray vision.

I think we'll go with that, actually.
