If I Drink Too Much...

if i drink too much
tell me
spell it out
don't let me just sit here making a fool of myself
writing such shit
call up the doctors who can analyze, condemn
and recommend medicine
for we men run round like mice in life's skinner-box
alcohol and women our only reward
i saliva at the bar every time I see her
for i associate her with beer as she take my money and pours
oh glorious beer
but some reward as i puke in the cubicle and flush
tossed out fighting off laughing bouncers
ignored and/or avoided by passers-by and the
cabs that can slaughter the unwary walker
walking home as the storm gathers and lightening please just end it now for
my head soars with feelings for her and the pain of the morning to come

Stick to playing Tapper. (Are there any other beer themed games,
other than the umpteen different versions of Tapper?)

Donkey Kong, assuming the barrels are filled with beer.

Beer here too. Trying to enjoy it to talk to some lads via Skype, but no
one online. I suppose they are drunk and all passed out.

Btw. I hope you are not affected by the tide there in Australia.

Beer doesn't burn. Whiskey maybe.

Good point.

There might actually be no other beer game than Tapper? How could game
designers only miss this great topic?
