Fandom Drama Drinking Game
May. 31st, 2007 06:22 pmIn the spirit of thievery love that is the internet at large, I found this over at Smart Bitches, who stole found and modified it from its (I think) original version at Mrs.Giggles. Since it works so perfectly for the latest rounds of fandom/LJ/real life wankery, I thought I'd pass it on, totally taken out of context suitably modified.
Frowning Dire Disclaimer: You are responsible for what, where, and how much you drink. If you're not old enough drink by the laws of your nation, state, county, city, hamlet, Middlesex village or farm, you probably shouldn't. Don't blame me for any legal problems, broken marriages, killer hangovers or poor choices in nude companions...I have enough of those of my own to worry about.

Any author, commenter, or fan who rants about how "mean", "cruel", or "heartless" other authors, commenters, or fans are= 3 sips
