It's that time of year again.  Time to leave our warm laptops and go out into the world of curious family members, talkative strangers and inappropriate co-workers—the season of holiday parties has arrived!

Holiday cheer isn't for everyone...sometimes you just want to get wasted, you know?  Whether you're playing alone or with friends/family, if you find yourself in any of these situations this holiday season, grab your glass of eggnog because the Christmas tree isn't the only thing that's about to get lit.

Christmas with your family:

Take a drink every time...

      • You get asked how school is going.

      • You get asked if you have a girlfriend/boyfriend.

      • A relative says something racist.

      • Someone pretends to like a present they received.

      • Someone complains about the food that's served.
