A 2012 Oscars Drinking Game

Hey everyone, who’s ready for the annual Hollywood stroke-a-thon hosted by Billy Crystal! Clapping! Mild tears! Montage of people who died!

Anyway, Billy Crystal’s skeleton is hosting this year’s Oscars. We’re sure it’ll be a barn burner of joke delight, as the best of Hollywood comes together in their gorgeous clothes in the middle of the used condom that is Hollywood Boulevard. There’ll be droll asides, a possible musical interlude and awkward shots of composer John Williams‘ farty body (he’s nominated twice, you see).

Which reminds us: Let’s start a drinking game! It’s a moral imperative. If you’re having a party, maybe you can employ the following rules (or add some of your own in the comments):

If Billy Crystal Makes a Joke About Being Short
