Questions about being a DD

Welcome to the alt.drunken.bastards Designated Drinker FAQ

  • What is a "Drunken Bastard"?
    Someone who fits the same criteria as a Designated Drinker (outline below), though sometimes the D.B. may be too drunk to fufill some obligations. This is okay, as is anything else done while drunk. Note: "bastard"" should be meant in the General George S. Patton "Magnificent Bastard" way, i.e., it is a compliment. I would like to add that a true DB is entertaining while drunk. Plus, "Bastard" is not meant as a masculane adjective; it can be used for either a male or female. Should a female DB prefer to be called a Drunken Bitch, it is her prerogotive to be called as such.

  • What is a "Designated Drinker"?
    A D.D. is just someone you can call up who will always be willing to go drink with you, no matter who you are. The D.D. is expected to always go out drinking with someone in his/her area who calls.
    • A D.B. who is available for drinking when no one else is.
    • A D.D. must never turn down a party.
    • A D.D. must never leave a party sober.
    • If somebody can't finish their [insert alcoholic beverage] by themselves it's the DD's duty to help them.
    • If someone at the party has to drive home it's the D.D.'s duty to volunteer to get drunk in their place.
    • A D.D. must never say no to a refill.
    • A D.D. must NEVER get unpleasant when drunk.
    • A D.D. should drink anything.
    • A D.D. should know alot of stupid drinking games.
    • A D.D. should be of age in their country, so they can participate in any drinking adventure.
  • That's it?
    Yes.

  • How do I get to be one?
    If there's not one in your area already, go to the the add on form and include your email address, the city and state you would like to be responsible for, your name, and your homepage, if you have one.

  • What if there's one in my area already?
    Drop that person a line and go drink with them. If you'd like to be a Designated Drinker but someone beat you to it, you can be the alternate in case the person is out of town, dead, etc. Just let us know. Check the Designated Drinkers List to see if there is a DD in your area.
