Several of our compatriots on this forum came to mind when I came across this. These exercises could conceivably form the core of a training regime for the Playa del Carmen Beach O-Limp-XX.

Solo Drinking Games for Alcoholics

It’s hard to capture the free-spirited, humourous spontaneity of the drinking game when you’re the only one drinking. That’s why we’ve thoughtfully prepared this list of booze-related diversions for the alcoholic who is still knocking them back long after everyone has left the party, and your life.

SOLO SPIN THE BOTTLE
RULES: Spin the bottle, and whoever it points to, drinks. If the bottle doesn’t point directly at anyone, the next person to the right drinks, and since you’re playing alone, it’s always you. SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: Make sure the bottle is empty before you start spinning it.

SPOT THE LIVER
RULES: Take off your shirt and start drinking. If your liver swells up to such an incredible size that it can actually be seen protruding from beneath your rib cage, you lose. NOTE: This game generally takes a few years, so make sure you have access to plenty of liquor before commencing play.

WHISKEY AT WORK
RULES: Bring a hip flask full of whiskey to work. Every time someone tells you to do something, take a drink. If someone asks you if you’re drinking on the job, take two drinks. Score double points if you upchuck on your boss. NOTE: This game will help you get through your working day much more quickly, enabling you to get to the bar at quitting time

GET DEPRESSED
RULES: Sit at a table or at the bar and get a drink. Think about your life. Every time you have a discouraging thought, take a swig. Alternate hands to bring balance to your existence. You always lose.

IDENTIFY THAT MEAL
RULES: This game calls for a steady hand, and the detective skills of Sherlock Holmes. After a bout of post-party puking, examine your barf. For every component of the meal you can successfully identify, take a drink. For any piece you find which you can’t recall eating, (You were really bombed!) Take three drinks. If you find another living organism in the mess, drink a whole bottle. This game adds challenge and excitement to what is normally a tedious and excruciating experience.
