Reeseball

Reeseball is a drinking game with rules similar to drunkball and beer pong or beirut.

The game requires cans of beer and one ping-pong ball.

At the outset, the cans sit at opposite ends of a table, unopened. A player will then throw the ball towards opposing player's unopened can. If the ball hits the can, the thrower may open his can of beer and produceed to drink it as fast as he can. The opposing player must retrieve the ball wherever it goes (under the fridge, behind the TV, into a potted plant, etc.) After retrieving the ball, he must place the ball back onto the table and exclaim "Reeseball!" this is the cue for the thrower/drinker to stop drinking. At this point, the player who retrieved the ball gets to shoot. If the player misses, there is no drinking.

The object of the game is to finish one's beer first. This is most successfully achiveved by hitting the can more times, or getting the ball to richochet wildly so that the opposing player takes longer to retrieve the ball. As with all drinking games, specific rules and regulations are observed by different households, but this is the generic rule of the game.

It may be played head-to-head or by an equal amount of players on two teams.
I'm really good at drinking games, especially beer pong, flipcups and Reeseball.

Research Tangent

Research Tangent: digressing suddenly from one topic of discussion to run to the nearest internet source in order to thoroughly research information either to: (A) reinforce a particular point or (B) attempt to relieve oneself from ignorance. Can be either directly or indirectly relevant.

... a trend that is sweeping the nation! Because knowledge is power!
Example: She totally went off on a research tangent in the middle of a movie last night when she wasn’t sure if sodium thiopental was the same as sodium pentothal.

steel reserve

Steel Reserve is an intoxicationg liquid customarily found in 22 oz cans and in the value-packed 40 oz glass bottles. Now, normally I'd be compelled to use the word "beer", but that's not going to cut the mustard. This is a HIGH GRAVITY LAGER. That's what they say. After drinking this, you'll feel like someone increased the Earth's gravity field by 70%. Don't get me wrong, it's hands down the best bang for your drinking dollar... but you'll probably get arrested if you drink more than a forty ouncer. So be careful! I have hallucinated and time travelled under the influence of steel reserve.
After I drank a couple of forties of STEEL RESERVE I felt brave enough to fight a cop! And the cop felt brave enough to Taser me till I shit my pants.

Baby Boomer resentment

"Baby Boomer resentment" is a term used to describe the growing feeling of resentment among "Millennials" that they are working to pay for the Social Security and Medicare of Baby Boomers, but they are paying into a system that will be bankrupt and gone by the time they are old enough to retire and have the same benefits. They feel they will be robbed. . . . . . . {The Millennial Generation (or Millennials), also known as Generation Y, describes the demographic group following Generation X. Since there are no exact dates (as of 2011) for when the Millennial Generation starts and ends, commentators have used birth dates ranging somewhere from the mid-1970s to the early 2000s. Members of this generation are also called Echo Boomers, due to the significant increase in birth rates through the 1980s and into the 1990s, and because many of them are children of Baby Boomers}. . . . . . . {A Baby Boomer is a person who was born during the demographic Post-World War II baby boom, from 1946 to 1964}.
Minnennial speaking: "I have 'Baby Boomer resentment' because I'm going to be working all of my life to pay for millions of retired Baby Boomers and when I am old enough to retire there won't be any Social Security or Medicare for me."

reese's law

"As a twitter hashtag grows larger, the probability of a comparison to terrorists or ISIS approaches one." There is a tradition in many groups that, once this occurs, that argument is over, and whoever mentioned terrorists has automatically lost whatever argument was in progress. Reese's law thus practically guarantees of an upper bound on a hashtags lifespan and overall size.
