I have discovered that an ancillary benefit of a baby is the ammo they provide for for the drinking game “Have You Ever.” If you haven’t played this game (drink), the premise is that a group of people sit in a circle and one will say something that they have done to the group, preceded by the name of the game…
“Have you ever bungy-jumped?”
Anyone who has NOT bungy-jumped is immediately labeled a boring person and is forced to drink. The idea is to get a bunch of your friends drunk, while making yourself seem cool. (Have you ever hiked the Inca Trail with a supermodel while high on peyote? Wow, everyone is drinking? I guess I’m the only one to do that.) As an almost thirty-something with mostly childless friends, I am actively searching for the opportunity to play this game and pull a few of my new arrows out of my quiver. For example, have you ever:
Dropped another person on their head?
Been pooped on by another person?
Caused another person to pee on their own face?
Googled the term “cervical ripening”?
Tasted breast milk? (okay, I haven’t done this yet, but it is only a matter of time before curiosity or too much alcohol gets the better of me.)
I think this would also give me the opportunity to find out some really strange things about my friends. Who wants to play?
"Cervical ripening" made me throw up in my mouth a little.
