Never Have I Ever...

So here we are with college students' favorite (drinking) game. It starts out innocent, a group of nondescript 18-25yr olds encircle near beer and vodka with their palms before their eyes, all ten spread out and ready to drop, throats cheering for libation. The first one speaks (the one with the most to hide who always has killer questions cause her quest to gossip outweighs her concern for personal discretion) "Never have I ever…" And as those around the circle lean in to hear the verbal clause, their eyes fixate on that special person in the circle that they had been waiting on for confirmation of their prejudgments. Kelly looks at Bobby wondering if the rumor that he cheated on his ex was true, Bobby wondering if Shay made out with Rico, and Vanessa waiting to see Justin's finger drop on the critical statement "... counted how many licks it took till I got to the center of her tootsie pop."

Ten fingers. The game where strangers and friends (more often than not acquaintances that really have no formal connection besides passing each other in the quad) find out each other's deepest and darkest secrets from sexual escapades and collegiate fidelity to who's selling the sweetest herb, who fell out on E last weekend, and who got their daddy to pay off a professor to pass them in a class they were surely failing. This game will get you into trouble and has the potential to be blackmail material in the future so be sure you're not "black out" before participating. Just a warning. If you've ever played never have I ever, post some of the most memorable phrases here - I would love to know (plus by the time the second round hits I'm already out of questions ((and fingers *cough* *cough*))).

Just to get you started, "Never have I ever…

1. Picked my nose in public."
2. Used toys during…"
3. Found my best friend's boyfriend/girlfriend attractive to the point where I'd risk my friendship."
4. Slept with more than one male/female in the same night."
5. (Best pick up line ever courtesy of Natalia) wanted to kiss someone more than I want to kiss you right now."
