The New & Improved Rachael Ray Drinking Game

In response to this very detailed and painfully thought-out (I assume, it would be painful to me) drinking game, I would like to hereby propose a new Rachael Ray Drinking Game:

Since most drinking games tend to be constructed on the premise that one takes a drink whenever the principal either says or does something specific, I’m going to construct this game around a slightly different one.  It’s very simple, so pay attention:

If you get the idea to watch the Rachael Ray Show, take a drink.

Keep drinking until you no longer feel the need to watch her show.

This is extensible to those around you with only slight modifications:

If someone around you suggests watching the Rachael Ray Show, take a drink.

Keep drinking until you can safely(this means without spilling any alcohol) use the bottle as a club to beat this person over the head for making such a suggestion.

Hells yeah.

 Excellent editorial in nyt about the circus that airport security has become.

“Ha! Suck it, Blue!”*
