I think I might have a drink tonight while watching the game. The question is do I sink a couple of beers, g&ts or pull out the big guns and make margaritas? Big choices.

It's a week day cobber! But maybe a shot for shot ⚽️ 🥅 👍

Except for penalty shoot outs.

Maybe shot for goal, ~~except if it goes to penalties. Shot for shot might get messy~~ Beat me to it

My house mate and I drank a carton of beer one morning watching a world cup game. Every yellow or red card or goal was a full beer down. So yeah, 12 of them. I have no recollection of who played or the score but there were a lot of professional fouls. I staggered to bed at about 10am. Fucken ell. Almost feel hungover just remembering.

I'm hungover just reading it. Chugging beers gets me fucked more than doing shots.

I'm glad you're still with us after that ordeal

It was laid down in text as an idea for anyone watching tonight, who has no plans tomorrow and doesn't mind a drink. I don't drink anymore.

A written accord? That's classy and super derro all at once. I fucken love it!!!!

[–] RosaliePreistley@aussie.zone 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

lmao. Thanks, I think. Enjoy the heck out of the game!!

[–] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 2 points 1 year ago

Absolutely a complement...enjoy the game as well!

penalty shoot outs is when you need it the most

[–] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I vote criminally strong g&ts

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago

I think this might be the way. I've got a crook back atm and last night my egg exploded in the microwave so today I need to clean it more thoroughly. I am not impressed. I need to medicate.

It's so tempting ngl.

Margs all the way! We've got some fresh lime juice in the fridge and a couple of whole limes in the fruit bowl. Very tempted. Very.
