Get the sand widow mug.A fabled drinking apparatus, built for aggressive consumption of alcohol. Similar to flip cup, the Widowmaker is used in a team challenge, that consists of racing to complete your beverages. The device itself consists of 10 beer bongs, 5 on each side. With each team on their knees, the match begins at either ended, with the parallel players beginning to empty their funnel. Once empty, the player will tap the teammate to their immediate, which allows them to commence their funnelling. The first team to complete all 5 funnels is declared the winner.
The Widowmaker can also be used to 'Run the Gauntlet', which involves the drinking of all 10 funnels by one individual. The Gauntlet can be used to celebrate a Birthday, recognize the completion of an essay, or act as punishment for douchebaggery.
Origins: the original Widowmaker is rumoured to have been built in the frozen tundra known as 'Canada', at the party haven known as Queen's University.

Get the sports widow mug.On newer computers with Windows 2000 and XP, there is a keyboard shortcut "Windows + F". This shortcut will bring up a search window when pressed once. When held, however, multiple (into the hundreds and even thousands) of search windows will appear. The time held directly correlates with the number of search windows to appear. When held long enough, the computer may crash and may even need a restart. This is something done in many schools to screw around and pull a prank on a fellow, and later on, pissed off, classmate. It also adds an extra shock when one turns off the monitor making an unsuspecting victim.
Teachers are always stumped when they see this dilemma, and usually suggest restarting, thinking the computer just freaking out.
Uneducated users also don't know "Ctrl + W" and "Alt + F4" can be held to very quickly get rid of this problem. However, these shortcuts will not solve the problem if it is held long enough to crash.
