Reality TV has taken over the world of drinking games–proving the shows are good for something. The latest game has swillers taking swigs behind Paris Hilton’s and Nicole Richie’s exploits on “The Simple Life.” One Web site directs drinkers to sip “each time a banjo plays to punctuate a pained facial expression by Paris” or “each time one of the girls wears wildly inappropriate couture.”
Others allegedly making the rounds:
“Real World”
– Housemate justifies his or her rude/selfish behavior as just “keeping it real.” One drink.
– Housemate accuses another of being racist. Or sexist. Or homophobic. Two drinks.
– Someone has a sob on the phone about cheating on/missing long-distance boyfriend/girlfriend. Chug it.
“The O.C.”
– Ryan tosses out his patented sideways look. One drink.
– Summer says, “Ewwww.” One drink.
“Queer Eye”
– Carson grabs for the victim’s crotch. One drink.
– The victim gets waxed. Two drinks.
– “Straight ahead” is not used to lead into a commercial break. Four drinks.
– The victim decides to become gay. Chug it.
