We regressed to drinking games last night.
I say "regress" because it really does feel like a step backwards. With these games, the main goal is to get drunk and embarrass yourself. It largely runs like this: begin sober, use arbitrary rules as an excuse to drink more than is sensible, become insensibly drunk.
Really, we should have moved on from this point by now. More recently, alcohol in my life is applied through a different process: go out with a group of people for chat and fun, apply alcohol to loosen our tongues (and morals!), enjoy ourselves together and pay for it the next morning.
Sometimes messy nights of drinking games are useful for the purpose of reminding us where we came from as drunken teenagers. Plus there is no real harm in regressing every now and then, so long as it is not permanent. I just hope this is not the sign of a group of people who have run out of things to talk about.

It is always good to throw a couple drinking games in every now and again. Once you start getting a routine, of drinking with the same friends, going the same pubs, talking about the same old stuff, it all starts to lose its appeal.
Throwing a drinking game in every now and again is a good reminder, but also fun for the little part of you which still is a teenager, the wild side, the carefree side that never really vanishes.
Doesn't matter what the age is, drinking games are always fun played with the right people.
