Sorry, strict rule preventing our favorite French-speaking friends from participating in this challenge. Understanding French is hard enough, let alone when one is plastered.

However, if you would like to slowly sabotage the TOFU strategies on my home games I would appreciate it and take your participation in said drinking challenge under advisement.

Maybe in future we do-away with the tie-breaker game (Fyr would like that!) and instead upload a video of your clan's hardest drinker doing a tray (24 glasses) of absinthe shots (to appease our French friends). The two protagonists must then meet on CC one hour later and play Hive manual, freestyle, 1 minute speed no fog while the rest of us heckle in game chat :)

Heck, I reckon this rule should apply to every challenge.

Salut!

Is there actually anyone in FOED who could 24 shots of absinthe?

I think Conchobar is Irish, so probably has it for breakfast.

I think I'd rather be a passenger in Lindsay Lohan's car than be driven by a cat whose paws don't reach the pedals ;)

Its going to take me that long to get back into drinking shape, but I warn you I'm from Wisconsin and I graduated from the University of Wisconsin, where we took our drinking seriously.

Pedal extenders, love. All sorts of accomodations for all types of drivers these days. :D

When you're driving at night with your headlights on (and your paw-extenders) does it seem like you've a huge audience of friends looking up at you from the divider between lanes?

That is prey, and I have excellent control over my base instincts. You will be safe with me for at least 20 minutes. :D

Cat's eyes = automobile headlights? Huh, I don't. A long long time ago, many women wore Cat's Eye shaped glasses, and then they became old fashioned, and then they were fashionable again, and right now in 2018, dunno. I'm not a fashionable feline :-$

So what do you call these things that reflect in the road? In UK we call them cats' eyes.

As for the 24 shots of Absinthe, I think we'd have to rely on Conchobar or PSaus for that challenge. Shoot, I'd probably be gone after about two. But yeah CoF, I am totally down with getting rid of the tiebreaker in lieu of a drunken Hive 1v1 freestyle speeder. But only if josko was required to comment on every incorrect move made by both teams.

Regarding the so-called "cats' eyes", I'm only 29 years old, but I have never heard them referred to by that name in either California (where I grew up) or Missouri (where I live now). However, there is a fair resemblance so the description is fitting.

And in happier news, "A League of Their Own" star madmom hit a homerun in Baseball to give FOED a 1-0 lead! Let's hope that trend continues :-D

Unfortunately, JPlo and I pulled a USA in WC2011 and forgot to show up this year. So soon enough the score will be at least 1-1 :cry:

:lol: Your commentary tickles me.

And yeah, 'Catseye' was the original trade name for them (invented by some clever Brit 80 years ago). I'd wrongly assumed the whole world used that term.

Well they fucking should!

Also I find it hard to believe anyone can handle 24 absinthe shots in say, a couple of hours.

I know that video. I suppose he probably could. He'd be pretty smashed though.
