When we last saw the others they were drinking not drunk.
Of course, given that Matt and Serrin had just started a drinking contest it's a fairly safe bet that unless it was interrupted one or both of them at least will be drunk by now or shortly unless they're passed out/ have choked to death on their own bile/ other stupid consequence of the ridiculous tradition of drinking contests. I'm not against alcohol consumption at all so long as it's in moderation most of the time but the whole "aren't drinking contests funny?!" thing that fiction has going on some of the time has always irritated me: I don't think they're fun, they prove nothing and they have the potential to be pretty dangerous to an unreasonable amount of people in an unreasonable amount of ways. Sorry. [/killjoy]
(I can't remember if Janine was aware of the drinking game or if she left before it came up or just didn't really notice because she was too busy freaking out, but I suspect her personal reaction to it would probably be similar to mine for much more specific and distressing reasons)
I don't think drinking contest between friends with vaguely responsible and presumably less drunk friends present is too likely to result in instant death, mind.
Lix is still right though: I can't see a lot of people taking you up on that bet. Something bad is bound to happen soon - specific circumstances aside, this is Murphy's Law we're talking about here - it's just a question of what, how bad it is and how long lasting and far reaching the consequences will be...
(...my, what a delightfully upbeat post that was! )

I keep telling my city of villains character, "Biotore stop attacking the D&D characters!" but he's just all like "BIOTORE CRUSH ALL MACHINES!" And then the Electro gypsy is trying to sing daft punk while keeping his electric keytar/greataxe from getting smashed and all the while the MSPA fantrolls are too busy either fighting amongst themselves, having dramatic relationships, or flirting with the three characters up there that AREN'T from a pre-existing universe.
And the bugbears... The bugbears just shake their heads... Exept Respelga the barbarian, she likes to fight Biotore for the heck of it.
And back to the topic at hand: Drinking contests and other methods of intoxication are actually a really good way of bringing out who a character is on the inside. You may have MR big, strong guy who puts on an aura of "i hate everything kill kill kill get the chicks cuz I’m emo", but once he's drunk? He's petting the kittens and telling everyone he respects them or looks up to them because of some emotional insecurity.

Remember, sobriety is only a 7th level cleric away.

Edit: And more on topic, I can attest that watching drunk people do silly things is very entertaining.
YES! I love being the DD when I would go out to the bar, I was the only person sober enough to remember just how much of their body various people showed off, and to whom they showed it.

Four words:
Table. Surfing.
Wheelbarrow. Jousting.

Beer. Jacuzzi. Bath.
That's insane enough for a half hour or so.
EDIT: I am happy to say that if i ever witnessed it, i doubt the tub would be full at the end. I am happier to say that i have never actually seen anyone do this.

Re: Murphy's Law 6: Will we ever stop burning through threads so quickly?
Since we are throwing out wild theories that are probably wrong, I’m gunna guess the following:
At some point in the comic it will flash forward to the next morning, bright sunny day, light pouring in through a window, back up a little more, you see Matt fast asleep.
Then the usual "Roll over, find someone in bed with you and scream" thing occurs with Serrin on the other side of the bed.
Whether or not anything actually happened between the two of them is anyone’s guess :P

Mo, Radic in bear form and Lloyd are strong enough to hold one down each, and then there's Tinder helping them.

Maybe they were passing out thanks to the drinking contest, so Lloyd, Tinder, and Radic decided to play a prank on them buy putting them in the same bed?
Possibly as revenge for rakeing up such a huge tab and being unable to pay for it.
