85* A whole pack of beer if the Richard Simmons episode comes on.
86* One of the stuffed-shirt British producers of "Whose Line?" intervenes during a skit for going too blue, screwing up a skit in the outtakes, meaning they'll have to cut and edit over, or mentioning Hitler.

120* You hear Drew say "The points don't matter," two if he relates it to something else that doesn't matter.

Single? Kiss your drink!

155** Four drinks if the host uses the doorbell instead of the buzzer when they're ''not'' playing "Party Quirks".
156** Five if the host accidentally hits the buzzer instead of the doorbell when they ''are'' playing "Party Quirks".
157* You still can't get Colin's "Me-owwwwww!" joke out of your head.
