like it’s 1989
People are often asking me how they can recapture the spirit of stupid, carefree fun that they had when they were 19 years old. Luckily, I have the recipe. This serves 2 but can be multiplied as needed. Enjoy.
Fun
1 copy of De La Soul’s debut album, Three Feet High and Rising
25-30 of your favorite songs (pre-1990)
1 multi-disc CD player or other music playback device
2 tall plastic cups, approximately 24 ounces each (preferably leftover souvenir cups from Big 10 football games or drive-thru windows)
1 pitcher, approximately 64 ounces
2 cannisters of frozen Minute Maid pink lemonade concentrate (yield 60 ounces each)
Water
1 1-liter bottle of Absolut Vodka, regular or citron flavor
1 Friend
1 Pair of Drinkin’ Pants
1 Telephone (landline preferred)
Ice
At approximately 7pm, pick up the telephone and call up a friend. Tell them you want to go out on the town and “do it up,” and that they should come over to your place for a little warm-up cocktail around 8 o’clock. Take a shower. Put on your Drinkin’ Pants, and, if you choose, a T-shirt. At 7:30, make one pitcher of pink lemonade by adding 5 cans of water to one can of lemonade concentrate. Fill a tall cup with ice, the lemonade, and approximately 5 ounces of vodka. Sit back on your couch and program your music device to play your favorite songs. Begin rocking out.
When your friend arrives, fill another large cup with ice, lemonade, and vodka, and give it to him or her. Continue rocking out as much as you deem appropriate. Talk about somebody you made out with freshman year, and then gently boast about one of your mild athletic achievements. Allow your friend to do the same. Continue drinking vodka-lemonades; they are delicious. Make sure somebody says the word "Majkowski" at least once. As much as you may want to high-five, don't. When you are almost ready to hit the town, put on song #9 from Three Feet High and Rising ("Eye Know"). Slam the rest of your vodka-lemonade cups and head out.
Everything else will take care of itself.
For ten points, who is the most annoying quarterback in pro football history?
