End of the world? Might as well get ‘faced.

by sj

YAY, IT’S THE (for really real this time) RETURN OF THE DRINKALONG!

We will all be gathering on twitter/tweetchat/whatever twitter client you prefer to watch the first 2 episodes of The Stand miniseries (currently streaming on Netflix, yay!) this Friday (March 1) at 10:15 pm EST.  Countdown clock?  Gotcha covered.

The current plan is to finish with the last two episodes of the miniseries on the following night, Saturday the 2nd.  I (and a few others) can’t do it next week and trying to split this up any other way just doesn’t make sense/is too inconvenient.

I hope most of you can make it for part or all!

More information with group hashtag and drinking game rules to come on Friday.

    Since we just got Netflix, we might be able to do this one. Depends what the husband’s got planned, but I know I’d love to be there. Our booze cabinet needs a clean-out.

    The book was great, but that TV series was a huge disappointment.

    I hope the beer makes it more interesting.

    Tom Cullen was spot on. Molly Ringwald gave me the heebie jeebies. There’s the horror element.

    I will be asleep by about 8pm Friday night because I have to wake up at (I KNOW) 4am the next morning (I KNOW!!!) so I can get to the train station by 6am. BUT, Saturday night, I’ll be coming home at just the right time. I won’t be able to watch along, but I can follow the drinkalong, so it’s better than nothing!

    Hey, I’m on the Twitter now! I could do this! I’m not sure if I’ll be around, but I’ll try…

    At first I was thinking you meant with the book, and I thought that was going to be one hell of a booze-fest.

    I just may join you! Although I haven’t read the book, I’ve seen the mini-series so many times, I could recite it in my sleep. ;) I’ve been meaning to pick up some liquor too. I’ll check back Friday.

    Dangnabbit this sounds so fun and so way past my bedtime. (Don’t tell anyone I said that.) We should coordinate on another Twitter drinking game sometime! Seriously. I love the idea.

      We’ve done a bunch of them, but this is the first since…November, I think? There will be more, but trying to set a good time for all time zones is rough.

      Also, my oldest stays up til 10 and I don’t drink while the kids are up.
