Girls' nights are some of the best nights and especially while there's a pandemic, staying in and social distancing is definitely the safest option. Of course, there are only so many things you can talk about and movies you can watch before those girls' nights in get a littleboring. So ask your single friends if they're down to spice it up a bit with a little drinking game.
What's the name of the game? "Text or Drink." Here's how it works:
The Rules Are Simple
Send the text or get drunk, oh, and...
- Best played with a group of 3+ friends
- Drink responsibly
- Must be 21+ to play this game
- Mix in some water, please and thank you
Get it? Got it? (In case you don't get it, go in order from 1 to 40 as each player takes turns and chooses to either send the text or drink). Good.
Let's PLAY!
*Note: if you have already texted the person it says to text for any rule, have one of your friends choose a new person from your contacts for you to send it to instead — or get ready to drink. Things are about to get interesting (disclaimer).
