Ready....Set....REDNECK OLYMPICS

I don't know about you, but I do know where I come from, outdoor drinking games are something that happens very often throughout the summer time. Just like Chris Lane says in his recent song, "Might call it crazy, call it drunk and dumb and dangerous," " It ain't nothing but another Saturday night, and in the summertime its every other day." To me, that is what summer is all about, having fun with your friends doing what you guys do best!

So here is a list of games/accessories that are important to have on your next get-together, as I like to call it- The Redneck Olympics!!

First and foremost, you can not have any type of olympics without the opening ceremony. Nothing beats the olympic rings made out of different colored jello shots. This is great for decoration and kicking off a good time!


Slip and Slide

What you will need: (2-3) Large tarps, (a lot) gallons of dish soap, (1-2) hose, (1) hill

There is not much that you really need to have a good time that lasts forever. This is one of my favorite events in the Redneck Olympics. Get a group of people together and get the water running down the tarp, add some soap in a few places and let the fun begin. Getting a running start and fly down on your stomach, bring a sled, or even try surfing our way down the hill, either way you do down you are bound to have lots of fun

Toilet Seat Horseshoes

What you will need: (1) 4x6ft piece of plywood, (1) plunger, (2-4) toilet seats

If you like horseshoes, you will love this! Place the plunger on the plywood and then step back a few feet. Start off by tossing the toilet seats to try and get it on the plunger, just like normal horseshoes.

Sharp Shooter

What you will need: (1) Bench seat, (6) ping pong balls, (6) golf tees, (2) water guns

Set up the bench seat and stick in the golf tees. Place the ping pong balls on the top of the tees and fill up those water guns because the fastest person to knock down the ping pong balls will be the winner! It is easiest if each person goes separately.

Dizzy Bat

What you will need: (2) wiffle ball bats, beer

Cut the end of the handle of the wiffle bat. Each player will pour a can of beer into the bat and then drink it. However many seconds it takes to drink the beer that player will have to spin around the bat. Another player then has to toss an empty beer can while they try and hit it in their drunken dizziness. The first team to finish the relay with all of their player successfully hitting the empty beer can wins.


Flip Cup

What you will need: (1) table, solo cups

This is another one of my favorite games to play, that usually gets paired with the slip and slide. Two teams of equal people line up on opposite sides on the table. Like a relay, you have to chug the drink in the cup then try flipping it so it stands up right, passing it on to your teammate next to you. When the last person flips their cup without cheating before the other team they win.

Hump the Balloon

What you will need: balloons

Okay this might get a little dirty depends on who is playing. Tape a blown up balloon on the butt of each teammate. Another teammate has to them "hump" the other person, trying to pop the balloon. Once that happens another person will then come and try to pop the balloon from the original "humper."

Plunger

What you will need: (2-4) toilet paper rolls, (2) plungers

It only counts if you can do it without using your hands! One person holds a toilet paper roll in-between their legs, while another person holds a plunger in-between their legs. Without using their hands, or any other body part, waddle down the path and try to stick the end of the plunger into the toilet paper.

Beer Pong

What you will need: (12) garbage cans, (2) volleyballs

This isn't your original beer pong with solo cups and pin pong balls. This is life size to the extreme!


Don't worry the fun isn't over yet! All of these games would be played by each team, facing a different opponent for every game. At the end of the day, the team with the most amount of wins will take home the trophy. Don't forget, this isn't just any trophy, it has to be an official Redneck olympics trophy.

We can't forget all those sore losers either...


HAVE FUN AND BE SAFE!!!

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

2097

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

pizza
Fandango

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.

1. You don't have to feel guilty about flirting with customers for tips (or just for shits and giggles).

2. You can be obnoxiously flirtatious with anyone you want. You are free to be that girl that flirts with everybody and makes 'em all smile (it's especially fun when the guy is as cute as Collin Jost). No shame.

3. Making random men nervous with your superior beauty and intense eye contact just for the hell of it is really amusing and empowering.

4. No one gives two poops if ya legs are hairy (your man shouldn't either but *Kermit the Frog meme* That's none of my business)

5. The toilet seat will remain down.

6. There's more money to spend on yourself.

7. There's always this secret butterfly in your tummy that marvels at the possibility that when you go out this weekend you're gonna meet someone super handsome/wonderful/prince-like and have this moment of dazzling dalliance.

8. Nothing is that serious...you can take it all with a grain of salt...you don't owe anybody anything.

9. You can dance with anyone and everyone...or no one (Hello frat boi w/ glasses, I see you).

10. You don't have to fluff anyone's ego but your own.

11. Free drinks and dinners from single guys (It's not taking advantage if they're offering; a girl's gotta eat).

12. You have more time to learn how to love and improve yourself rather than constantly pouring your energy into another person.

13. You don't have to sacrifice your cheesy Jen Aniston rom-coms and Gilmore Girls for his Fast and Furious/other dumb action movie featuring blonde that is only in the movie to supply a relationship to the male lead and to make him look more masculine/empowered in juxtaposition (In other words, you don't have to deal with a guy being a crabby Patty while you watch your cute movies).

14. You can daydream about what your future husband may be doing right now (and not get stressed/guilty out because you're not picturing your current boyfriend that's crazy about you as your future husband).

15. There is more time to be spent with your girlfriends.

Girls Night In
Milk + Blush

We've all been there - you've been saying since Tuesday after French that this weekend is the weekend. You're finally going to break out those new heels and actually put on eyeliner on and make this Friday night be one for the memory books! That is, of course, until Girls Night Out turned into...Girls Night In.

Whether you believe astrology is a legitimate "science" or not, we have all found ourselves looking at our horoscopes from time to time. The 12 astrological signs all fall under one of four elements: air, water, earth, or fire. Air signs are rational, social, and love to communicate with others. Water signs are are emotional, intuitive, and mysterious. Fire signs tend to be passionate, creative, and adventurous. Earth signs are conservative, realistic, and loyal.

Each sign is determined by the relative positions of celestial bodies to ourselves at our moment of birth, which is said to influence our personalities. Find your zodiac GIF below, based on the traits and characteristics provided by each sign.
