So the most amazing woman ever invited me to her best friend’s wedding shower.  It’s some sort of “couples shower” so it won’t be a total estrogen fest. Nonetheless, the editor of JustinSpeak decided that it would be prudent to blog about the thing.  I’m super stoked.  Why? Because it is Tres de Mayo! I had 48 oz of margaritas this morning and will have plenty more at this shower.  I may even get even more of a drink on after this shower.

Finally, I want to introduce you guys to the best Mexican restaurant in Saint Louis.  Peep the link and then go taste the food.  You won’t be disappointed.

OMT: Check out Justin Schmidt on Kluster.

My air conditioner in my apartment is broken. It is fucking hot man. Ugh.

I hope everyone’s weekend was as fun as mine. I actually played the drinking game “asshole”. I haven’t played asshole in a couple years!

So, in the spirit of drinking games, here is a list of my to five favorite drinking games.

5.) Cannonball
My buddy Matt always emcees this game for one reason. He is the only one that knows how to set it up. It’s a great game to play between other drinking games because it is so quick. lots of fun.

4.) Quarters
I get a little grossed out about drinking a beer with a quarter in it. You hear so many statistics about how dirty our money is and then you slurp down a beer with a fucking coin at the bottom of the glass. However, quarters is a great game and can be a headliner in it’s own right.

3.) Circle of Death
Fucking every little group of friends in the entire country have their own “house rules” on this game. Is a Jack a “thumb master”? Do you tell a joke? Is it a rule? It always changes. I guess that is what makes Circle so great. You can play it a zillion different ways. While I’m on the subject, whenever you draw a card that allows you to make a rule, pick something more creative than “can’t say ‘drink,’ ‘drank’ or ‘drunk’”.

2.) Asshole
I like this game because it reminds me of Uno (greatest card game ever by the way). Also, it can go on for a long time and allows some epic drinking.

1.) Beer Guy
I don’t even know if this is the right name for it, but that is what my buddy Lescher called it in college. Basically, it’s a game where you bounce a ping-pong ball into your opponents cups. Very fun indeed. Well, I always had fun when playing it, but I bet most of that had to do with the company I kept.

Honorable Mention:
Horse Races
Social
Fuck the Dealer
Sevens
The Power Hour in a Half Hour

Methinks we should get wasted on Saturday.

Here is the plan.

Delmar - Blueberry Hill, Delmar Lounge, Pinup, Saleem’s, and then we will end our night at the Mecca of Late-Night Wastedness: The Halo Bar

For those of you who do not live in the Lou, the Halo is that place that is at the end of a great strip of bars and clubs that seems to be open two hours later than all the other bars. Every city has one. It’s the place where you see people making the desperate drunk hookup attempt. You know, the one where the guys get that “I’m NOT tugging on my own dong TONIGHT! I MUST find SOMETHING to go home with!” look on their face. Meanwhile, the interested ladies’ mug reads, “I deserve it tonight, I’m gonna get me a man. I’m gonna sucker $15 worth of booze from about 5 of these assholes before I take my pick, but I’m GETTING a man!”

I fucking love it! Meanwhile, those of us that have significant others get to take in the whole scene with a smile as we think about some of the dumb things we’ve done in the past for a little action.

What’s the Halo type place in your town?

These sound like the perfect things to drink whilst in the sun.

A Really Fucking Cold Beer

I love looking up tasty drinks on the Internet. The only problem is I never have the right alcohol to make one of them. One of these days I am going to go to a decent liquor store and spend a hundred bucks on some good shit.

Anybody got a good mixed drink that isn’t something found during a “Well Special?”
