Booze Lords Victorious

We have a serious problem. That problem is watching Dr. Who. We have an obsession, and we are placing the blame almost exclusively upon David Tennant. He is wonderful. Our obsession has now spread to our family and friends, so we thought, “Hey. We should make this into a party game.” That was how Booze Lords, the Dr. Who drinking game was born.

We have to work out the fact that this has to be split up into many, many nights of drunken amusement. We are also only going to be watching the new series that started in ought five. There are too many episodes to knock this out in one go, and we don’t want to suffer from alcohol poisoning. Here is what we have thus far:

1. Our scientist friend, the Faustian Fox, will wear a crown and act as Science Lord. He will declare when fake science has been employed and we all take a sip of beer.
2. Every time a character from a previous episode returns; we do a shot. Chug a beer if we thought they were dead and never coming back.
3. “Molto bene”, “alons-y” or any other dynamic, foreign phrase means one shot of exotic booze.
4. Sit down to a lovely meal every time the Doctor regenerates. Allow for us to cry when David Tennant has to leave. This may also include hair tearing and hiding under the couch.
5. Take a shot when aliens are treated as no bfd.
6. Sip a beer every time Capt. Jack Harkness does something lewd.
7. Sip a beer for every actor from a movie or show that we have seen before (i.e. Simon Pegg and Anthony Stewart Head). Sarah Jane Smith only counts if you have personally seen Battle Star.
8. When the daleks start yelling “Exterminate!” in any language, everybody does a shot starting anti-clockwise and continuing around the circle.
9. Sip a beer whenever a historical character or event is shown for the first time. Don’t do this for whenever a historical character or event is mentioned because it will lead to death.
10. Do a shot for every Harry Potter reference made while David Tennant is playing the Doctor. Harry Potter actors also count. Barty Crouch Senior counts for two shots. Moaning Myrtle only counts for a half shot because she is the shame of our noble house. Ravenclaw ftw.
11. Do a shot every time Time Lord technology is described as being “bigger on the inside”.
12. Take a shot for every time Martha Jones has to be reminded that she is not Rose. Every time she takes that shot; we follow in kind.

He commands you to drinky drank. Trust him, he is a Doctor.

This is what we have come up with so far, boys and girls. We welcome your suggestions. We would also like to apologize for the stream of Dr. Who themed posts that will be coming down the pipeline for the next few weeks or so. Like we said, we have an obsession. It’s an itch we simply cannot scratch.

UPDATE: We just invented a new drink. UV Blue vodka + orange juice = the Sonic Screwdriver. It’s going to be a thing!
