So... different kinds of things are expected at different holidays. We all have our own traditions. But what about our drinking traditions/expectations?
St. Patrick's Day, for example, usually consists of this kind of drinking:
1-Get Drunk
2-Be Somewhere.
3-Possibly Survive
Halloween:
1-Get Drunk
2-Be Somewhere
3-Nail Somebody Dressed As A Pop-Culture Reference
St. Valentine's Day:
1-Get Drunk
2-Be Somewhere
3-Call Former Partners And Scream The Lyrics To "Private Eyes" At Them.
Christmas:
1-Get Drunk (Or Wish You Were Drunk)
2-Stay In
3-Deal With Family BS With Or Without Liquid Protection
New Year's:
1-Get Drunk
2-BE Somewhere!!!
3-Constantly wonder if what you're doing is fabulous enough to ring in the new year respectably.
Ha ha! TBTL refers to St. Patrick's and Halloween (and to a lesser extent New Year's Eve) as amateur nights. As "professional drinkers" they like to avoid the hoopla and amateurs and stay in (or go to a grown-ass house party).
