12 Tap Challenge

First conceptualised in Australia and regularly conducted in the late 90s, the 12 tap challenge is a drinking competition at a public establishment that requires partipants to fully consume one pint from each tap at the bar, in a row, from left to right. No tap can be skipped, and no tap repeated in lieu of wanting to skip a disliked tap. If the row of 12 includes wines, they must also be included. It is best to avoid rows which include wines due to the increased chances of vomiting.

There must be at least 12 taps at the bar, and participants are disqualified if they fall behind the other competitors (by one tap), or sneak off to the bathroom to vomit and then return to the competition. Participants can honorably withdraw at any time without repercussion or slander from peers.

If desired, participants can vote to start from the right and progress to the left if they believe it will be easier to stomach certain beers at one end over the other, however all participants must follow the same direction.

There may be more than one winner. Winners must fully consume pints from all 12 taps without vomiting. Standing and/or walking is negotiable, as is vomiting after being declared the winner. Winners receive props from their mates for life and don't have to pay for the taxi home. Other awards such as tshirts, engraved stein glasses, or actual trophies may be given. Upon receiving, drinking from the stein or trophy is also encouraged so as to further revel in the glory of winning.

Tap in merchant

A "tap in merchant" is a football(soccer) player who scores a large number of goals by getting into easy-to-reach positions to score a "tap-in," which is a goal scored with minimal effort from close range and also lacks other skills, such as dribbling, playmaking, or a good first touch, relying only on being in the right place to score

Shoulder Tap

When a lady’s partner is performing cunnilingus & they are terrible & have no flippin clue what they are doing, she will give them a tap on the shoulder, letting them know they can just give up. The Shoulder Tap means there is no chance in hell she was going to cum & she’s bored & likely irritated. She will likely never call them again.
