What's the hang up with drinking games?
A lot of y'all don't like them.

I like the simple ones
but on the whole I'd rather have a chat with people tell jokes etc than stare at a pack of cards while people shout "WOOOOooooaaahh" and "DOWN IT!"

We like to play truth or dare.
It's a bit shit, to be fair. But when you're drunk, it's kind of fun.

I like playing cards, mostly because it gives me a false sense of superiority when I stomp others into the ground using my mad skillz.

Vipros, I respect you and think of you as a smart man.
But fun is fun, if it's forced it's not fun.

do you lot have drinking game bullies that make you play cards and have fun?

they do exist
but we've managed to slowly lose them from my group of friends. We are more than capable of having fun without being organised into it

I like sitting around and talking but if I'm at a party I'd rather start a card game

You've been to the wrong parties
but to be fair you're not a big drinker

just because I don't drink much
doesn't mean I can't. I just prefer to do it in my own time.

Part of the problem with drinking games, aside from the really simple completely luck-based ones is that most people are too shit so it's not entertaining

Actually, I see what you mean now.
At big parties they always play beer pong, which I hate and suck at, so I try to get a game of flip cup going and people generally tend to drift away from the table. I suppose there's only so many times you can play.
