How To Drink From A Shot Syringe

I know you've all been waiting with baited breath for photos since I said that Kalev won a Turistas shot syringe, so I will keep you in suspense no longer.


Step One: pour your delicious beverage* into a receptacle


Step Two: suck up your delicious beverage into the syringe.


Step Three: smile maniacally for the camera.


Step Four: Enjoy!


Step Five: Repeat as many times as necessary until you acheived the desired results.


Variation: Using a red liquid makes it look even cooler.





Believe it or not, there were actually more people at this party than just Kalev and I. We just happened to be the only ones cool enough** to actually take shots from a syringe. And so we recruited Nathan, who I like to refer to as Mr. I'll-do-another-shot-if-you'll-do-another-shot. And here he is, putting his money where his mouth is.


There was also a very hilarious conversation that ensued from this whole proceeding that I couldn't possible hope to reproduce in its entirety, but from which I now provide a few snippets that I can remember:
  • "Beth needs to learn to swallow"
  • "Go slower this time"
  • "You can't always control it. Sometimes you just have to gulp"
  • "It's not my fault you shot it all over my face!"
You know you wish you could attend the same parties as me.

*In this case, it was some sort of toffee flavoured liquor.
**This may be explained by the fact that most of the people there were engineers and they were too busy discussing mathematical formulae and, I kid you not, the Fibonacci sequence. Let me repeat that: they were discussing the Fibonacci sequence at a party.

Coming from a family of engineers and engineer-adjacents, I believe you. Engineers know how to kill a party dead. Librarians, on the other hand, know how to throw kick-ass parties - I suggest inviting a few next time to balance out the engineers :)

Thanks for the tip, Rebecca! I'll take it under advisement!

Likewise, scientists know how to party. In retrospect, we should have had more scientists and librarians.

Who is this Nathan??!! Even from below and to-the-side, he is a hottie!!

Formulas at parties - huh . . .

Get everybody a little more drunk, I think.
