Proposed Drinking Game For People Going Home To Republican Family For The Holidays

Infinite number of players allowed.

Family member makes reference to voting day--all drink.

Family member mocks you for "your guy" losing--all drink.

Family asks you about gay marriages in Boston as if you're someone who studies wildlife in Africa--all drink.

Family makes reference to election and dissenting worldviews condescendingly in pre-meal prayers (something the military doesn't even have the rudeness to do)--all drink.

Anyone who's been a minority dissenter in a red house, I think, will see that this game can even be played with players in different states, without even any back and forth over the phone.

Oddly enough, I don't drink. This leaves me very poorly prepared for the next two days and two nights back home. My Mom and Dad have been nice since that week of hell, I must admit. But when any political mindsets of three or more get in a house, there's bound to be an uncomfortable feeling at some point.
