My challenge to Cyrus King

A 1-on-1 drinking debate with a referee that we must both agree on - I suggest dEsidEL, or if he's too sick of the debate, Az. Note to all the readers that this would be taking place *in person*.

I'll take the Israeli side and you take the Palestinian. Speeches/rebuttals last 1 minute each until we run out of alcohol or one person loses consciousness. The speaker must take a certain number of shots every time he says any of the the following words:

Speaker for the Israeli side:

Arafat...................1 shot
Suicide bomber...........2 shots
Camp David...............1 shot
Hamas....................3 shots
Rabin....................1 shot
Jewish [+state]..........1 shot [+1]
Terrorist/terrorism......1 shot
Anti-semitism............7 shots


Speaker for the Palestinian side:

IDF......................1 shot
Occupation...............2 shots
Collective punishment....3 shots
Human Rights.............1 shot
Zionist..................1 shot
Suffering/oppression.....2 shots
Invade/invaded...........6 shots
Settlement/settler.......2 shots
Sharon...................1 shot


Both speakers:

Intifada.................2 shots
Security fence...........1 shot
Peace....................2 shots
State-sponsored..........2 shots
Blood[shed]..............1 shot
Conquer/capture..........2 shots


The object of the game is, obviously, to make your point without using any of the above words. The first one to go unconscious has to stop posting on the Israel/Palestine conflict for two full weeks.

A short musical intermission may be taken after each round of both speakers; however, all music must be progressive. Trance will not be allowed as we do not wish to encourage fraternizing with the enemy.

Comments, suggestions?

(P.S. I'm sorry if this offends anyone, just trying to inject some humour into it, particularly since some people have gotten the impression that Cyrus and I would be at each other's throats in the real world. )



Edit: I'll make updates to the original post as suggestions come in.

oh how can you have such a historical debate, without the word "conqured/captured"??

oh and there should be a few shots for "Sharon" in fairness


Cyrus, bring your camera and make a documentary of it for us

replace each shot with a tablespoon of extra spicy zionist mustard

Aw c'mon, it's just one night of drinking. Cyrus, you know you want to! Just picture us debating this pissed drunk and slurring our speech.

Thumbs up

This is one of the funniest things I've heard for awhile. Thanks for the chuckle.


Posted by TranceGiant on Jan-28-2004 10:04:

Hahaha, clever, clever!

I'd like to play, too. Palestinian, tathi, borron, anyone?


Posted by tathi on Jan-28-2004 10:12:

i don't drink

and i try to keep my posts to their witty minumum in those threads nowadays :P


Posted by borron on Jan-28-2004 11:33:

I accept!!!! haha, i'm gonna whip your asses

But i hate shots, what about replacing them for small beers (20 cl) or maybe 1 shot = half a glass of vodka

Heh, that depends on the debaters' tolerances, we want the game to last at least 10 minutes.

I've worked out another option for the total alcohol abstainers - it's not as fun, but it's got the same general idea. Contestants must sit down with a big bowl of extra-ripe jalape�o peppers and eat one whole pepper corresponding to each shot as listed in the table above. No other food or drinks may be kept at the debating table. The loser is the first person to run for the water, run for the bathroom, or fart.

What say you, anti-alcoholics?


Posted by Shakka on Jan-28-2004 14:51:

Make it more entertaining--just take a bong rip for every violation of your rules. You should be speaking gibberish in no time!


Posted by Palestinian on Jan-28-2004 15:39:

Wink

how about we do this with food? pieces of popeyes chicken! Eat till you drop! Or have a heart attack. What do you think, Cyrus?


Posted by St_Andrew on Jan-28-2004 16:34:

looooool, if this ever take place, record it!


Posted by dj_ilan_yosef on Jan-28-2004 18:54:

I'm IN!
Cyrus, you better accept this one, and bring your terror squad with you (Palestinian, Hardcore trancer).

A Toronto event i wouldn't mind hosting on a weekday at Distrikt, i'll make the arrangements if we all agree to this!

so what do you say girls?


Posted by DigiNut on Jan-28-2004 19:03:

NO FLAMING IN THIS THREAD!!!

Absolutely NO mention of any of the "shot words" will be tolerated until the debate takes place! Any pre-debating will disqualify you as a contestant AND a spectator. We WILL be hiring bouncers.

CYRUS, DO YOU ACCEPT!? I know you're reading this!
Are the rules not fair? Should I take the Palestinian side and you take the Israeli?

Let's hear from the man himself!

Ilan, you have a love for labelling "Terror" on any Israeli criticizers dont you?

Hello Diginut.

I would like to have this arrangement...but one thing i hate drinking is alcohol...Im not like most in this world...i actually hate the taste of alcohol....excpet for Ice wine.

But i wouldnt mind meeting up with people to discuss this over a coffee?

Hey, what about me? I was included in the original terror squad thought up by melech_mike (Cyrus, me and The Demon). Are you trying to say I got kicked out for not blindly supporting palestinian cause? Damn you! Damn you all!


Posted by borron on Jan-29-2004 01:07:

The team leader doesn't want to drink, shall we discuss this over water bongs as Shakka said?


Posted by tathi on Jan-29-2004 01:10:

haha Mikes terror list

it made me really proud to make that list


Posted by DigiNut on Jan-29-2004 01:23:

Shots, water bong hits, and jalape�o peppers are all acceptable means of competition.

Although I am not opposed to discussing it over coffee as a separate event, this one is designed to get people thoroughly wrecked and provide comic relief for the spectators. If none of the three means of torture are acceptable to you, will you choose a First Officer to represent you!?

I await your response!

*salutes*

P.S. I notice several of you using the word "t*rror" - please note that this is equivalent to "t*rror*sm/t*rror*st", and any further usage of it will have you disqualified from the event and denied entrance!

HAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!!!!

Aaron I'd be more than happy to moderate this debate. As long as the judge gets to be in charge of the shots and bong... but you can stick the jalepeno pepper up your arse!!

Thought you'd get a kick out of the idea.

Seems like the opposition is a little shy, though! Looks like the game won't be played any time soon, although for the record, the offer will be open indefinitely for as long as there is both an Israel and a Palestine.

Well, I hope you all got a good laugh and perhaps a glimpse of the futility of the issue. Besides, all they really need to do down there to make everyone get along is throw a massive state-wide rave and invite everybody. No prog, though.
