The Official Presidential Debate Drinking Game
Quartz

If you are anything like me, you know that the final debate is going to be as intense as the last two were. Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump will face off one last time at the University of Nevada-Las Vegas as they make the final push towards Election Day. If the previous two presidential debates were any indication, the final debate should be even more riveting, dramatic and, dare I say, loony.

Want to know how to watch the debate and endure all the agony that goes on? Turn it into a drinking game! Here are the rules:

Take a drink if/when:

1) Trump sniffles when he speaks.

2) Clinton shimmies.

3) Trump and Clinton argue about whether Trump supported the Iraq War or not

4) Clinton brings up Trump's tax returns

5) Trump brings up Clinton's emails

6) Trump says "Huge" or "Bigly"

7) Trump says hewants to "lock up Clinton" or get a prosecutor and put her in jail (either one)

8) The 2nd Amendment is brought up in some way

9) The moderator (Chris Wallace) cannot control the debate

10) Nuclear wars are brought up

11) The crowd cheers/boos

12) Clinton begins to cough

13) Trump references Clinton's health or stamina

14) Either candidate calls the other a liar or accuses them of lying

15) Obama is mentioned

16) The word "millennial" is mentioned

Take 2 sips if/when:

1) Benghazi becomes a topic of discussion

2) Trump brings up "drug testing" for Clinton

3) Trump calls Clinton "Crooked Hillary"

4) Either Trump or Clinton ignores the moderator and keeps talking past the time limit

5) Clinton laughs at something Trump says

6) Trump brings up Hillary's husband Bill or Clinton brings up Donald's wife Melania in some way whether it's rape or lies. (Take a shot if there was some type of cover-up)

7) Clinton diverts a question regarding her emails

8) Trump diverts a question regarding touching women inappropriately

9) Changing plans for Healthcare are discussed

10) Trump or Clinton says their campaign slogan ("Make America Great Again" for Trump and "Stronger Together" for Clinton) (Take multiple sips whenever Trump says "great")

11) Clinton calls Trump a "Bigot" or "Racist"

12) Trump brings up the success of his businesses (This will probably be enough to get you drunk by itself)

Take a shot if/when:

1) Trump says the election is rigged by the dishonest media

2) Trump says the comments he made about groping women were just "locker room talk

3) Clinton tells Trump he lives in his own reality

4) Russia or Putin are brought up

5) Trump makes any reference to the size of his hands

6) At any point Trump says "Disaster," "Wall," or "China"

7) There is a mention of the Middle Class

8) Trump interrupts Hillary more than 3 times

9) "WRONG" is exclaimed by Trump

10) Trump changes the subject to ISIS

11) If Trump says he loves minorities more than Clinton

Chug and guzzle down your drink if/when:

1) When either Trump or Clinton accuses the other of being unfit or unqualified to be president

2) You are sick and tired of these debates

3) You cannot find the remote

4) You realized you've changed political parties during the debate

5) You have to use the bathroom, but you can't because there are no commercials during the debate

On and all, when you think you’re hearing the same things over and over again, drink some water and go to sleep.

When all is said and done, remember to take public transportation home.

Good Luck!

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
