Ziptie - 10/17/14 - Senor_Taylor - 10-14-2014
Hey, I don't expect a response to this, but this is just to let any alumni/people I didn't invite on FB or personally know that there will be an MM Ziptie at my house Friday. This has been planned for about a month, but there was no need posting here on the forums until now since I doubt anyone on here will come that hasn't already RSVP'd. Current Member turnout is looking pretty good, but I don't want to leave out any alumni that might be in town and want to join in on shenanigans.
Location: 502 Snowberry lane
Time: 9:30 or later
Details:
This is a semi formal event, so button down shirt, nice-ish pants and shoes.
Bring a date (duh). If you absolutely can't find a date, bring a friend, but there's no promises no one will laugh.
Bring a fifth (of your favorite beverage). Get something low proof if you and your date don't want to wake up naked in a ally somewhere (or get something high proof if that's exactly what you want to happen)
You'll be ziptied together when you arrived and I won't cut you loose until you finish your bottle, or die.
There will be games, pong, quarters, and what-not. Hopefully no wrestling this time around
Should be fun. I'll see y'all there! Sorry Ryan, no Rockband. Having a girl strapped to me might slow down my drumming.

I was going to tell you what we used to call these kinds of parties back in my day, but I can't remember, because I got too drunk. Ken?
At least you're doing it on Friday, in our day we would've raged hard on Saturday night and ended up at the autocross looking like this.

Oh and we used to use 40s or 4 Lokos as the beverages of choice. Maybe that had something to do with the name, seems vaguely familiar...
Re: Ziptie - 10/17/14 - Senor_Taylor - 10-14-2014
Well, maybe you played Edward 40 hands?
It was originally on Saturday, but then some people didn't want to Auto-x hungover.
Re: Ziptie - 10/17/14 - SlimKlim - 10-14-2014
Yeah Edward 40 Hands popped into mind but we did it like you guys are where you got attached to a randomly selected member of the opposite sex until you both finished your drinks. I think we did it around Valentine's day if I remember correctly

Forethought like this gives me faith in the younger generation, that was a concept we tried and failed to grasp the entire time we were in school. :lol:
EDIT: Oh wait you're letting them choose who they're attached to?! I'm pretty sure we drew from a hat or something, half the fun is watching people who do not want to be ziptied to one another trying to chug their way out of it.

Re: Ziptie - 10/17/14 - Senor_Taylor - 10-14-2014
Maybe once we're cut free and the women are gone so we don't scare them off. They'll be afraid to be our groupies because we're too good.

I think we just called it a "40/4 Loko" party.
I got stuck with that b!tch Lizzy. Think I had some of her drink just to get cut free sooner. :vomit:

YES. I think the funniest was Cabel getting stuck with "big Steph," and spent most of the night making fun of one another I believe. By the way, the name "big steph" was actually of very little relation to size; there just happened to be a pint sized Steph in their friend group so that was "little steph."
That was awesome, and like Joey said it's infinitely funnier/drunker if you do random. It also helps out the poor saps who don't have someone to bring. Honestly it was one of my few strokes of genius to do that on Valentine's Day.
We did 40's and 4 lokos, a 1/5th is super aggressive and will probably dissuade the ladies. Hell, I think the year after we just let the girls bring a bottle of wine to use. Bitches love wine.
Fuck. I wish I was going. Do something like this during homecoming and I'm down haha.
Last note. Forgot about that picture, that face perfectly depicts how I felt in that moment. Awesome.
Re: Ziptie - 10/17/14 - Senor_Taylor - 10-15-2014
Literally everyone does zipties with fifths. We're big kids and we can handle our booze. And I might have something for homecoming. I've kind of had a big party at my house every weekend so far this year and I wouldn't mind taking some time off.
Also, I took what y'all said about us not partying as much as y'all did. We've all be throwing down quite often. It's been a good year.

Alright, no need to get defensive, it was just a suggestion. If girls want to drink a fifth all the better, I just remember getting better attendance (if you will) by saying it will be a bottle of wine for them.
Cool, I will be down there, be cool to get to meet a lot of you/see some old friends if possible.

Isn't it more like 25? Make sure people people have their wills in order before you get started...

OK, that's enough for now.
Re: Ziptie - 10/17/14 - SlimKlim - 10-15-2014
Awesome.
I question whether kids these days use "fifth" to refer to the same thing we did. To me, a fifth has always been 750ml of hard liquor. Like dis:
![[Image: yhst-128588312714207_2229_95452519.jpg]](http://morewines.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/4ef615b1378a8d12c77f54fd412fb19b/y/h/yhst-128588312714207_2229_95452519.jpg)
I can't think of anything that comes in a fifth that I would consider "low proof" unless 35% Jager is low proof...
I'm assuming they're having each team split one bottle, whereas we assigned one beverage to each participant, and if you use the 1.5oz shot standard, that's ~8.5 shots per person. So, probably not lethal but definitely enough to get your average college girl to Fuckedupville.
EDIT: Is that last photo a picture of David M doing a keg stand from a growler? What was he using, a straw? :?
Re: Ziptie - 10/17/14 - JPolen01 - 10-15-2014
Have you guys really never done this before? You don't have to do shots all night. You can mix it if you want. This is not a "new" idea.

Pretty sure it was a mini-keg, one of those Coors Light things you could buy at Sheetz back then. So it had a mini-dispenser-hose on it.

Gotcha, makes a bit more sense.

That's somewhat apparent since this entire thread is a conversation about the differences between the way we threw a party with the same theme a few years ago, and the one they're planning now, but :thumbup:.
Re: Ziptie - 10/17/14 - Senor_Taylor - 10-15-2014
Yeah, me and my lady date are using plain Absolut and making mixed drinks. Also, I can do 15 shots and not die. Then again, I am the leading MM alcoholic. Everyone learned that last Friday. I DID black out that night.
