Sea Shepherd Ship Detained In Shetland Islands - $1.4m Bond Needed To Free It

Whale Wars drinking game.

What exactly is that?

[Pan_Yan]

Imagine the screaming if a fishing company bought it. FYI Paul Watson was involved in blowing up some fishing boats back in the 70s. I’ll bet he’d do it again.

[Pan_Yan]

There are several variations on the web. Here's the one I posted on the Whale Wars Live thread a few weeks ago:

The Whale Wars drinking game. Down a full one every time:

- They get locked in a dangerous ice field, surrounded by gigantic icebergs. Drink a double when the wishy-washy captain, who doesn’t seem to want to be bothered by it, tells the crew to “do their best to try to avoid hitting the big white things”.

- They look like a monkey screwing a football trying to get the Zodiacs in the water.

- Contact with the Zodiacs is lost because they forgot to take, or even turn on, their radios.

- They are driving the Zodiacs in the opposite direct of their target ship.

- Someone gets so hurt that they are stuck in bed and have to crawl to the bathroom for the rest of the season.

When they do actually intercept the target ship, take a drink when:

- They yell “incoming” when the Japanese start throwing flash-bang grenades at them. (Thought they were just seal bombs, but they are actually flash-bang grenades.)

- They make a second pass at the Japanese ship because they have one or two bottles of acid left.

- They collide with the Japanese ship.

- Every time the speakers on the Japanese ship broadcasts “Warning: Intruders will be detained and prosecuted according to Japanese law.”

And don't forget bingo:

Whale Wars drinking game.

What exactly is that?

If Pan_Yan could be so kind as to post the "Whale Wars Bingo" I decided that I wanted to come up with a Whale Wars drinking game based on Whale Wars Bingo created by a FReeper from our Whale Wars Ping List.

I'm going to mess around with the bingo board to come up with rules so that people aren't smashed before the first commercial because the way this season is going you'd be drinking an entire 2 liter bottle of vodka in 30 minutes.

If you aren't on our ping list let Pan_Yan know these threads are hilarious and I completely repeat myself by saying they are the BEST anti-depressant. Nothing is better than seeing hippies getting hosed, prop fouling themselves, look retarded, ect...

Or, they could try to say "Sea Shepherd Ship" five times fast...

[Dengar01]

The problem is we need to specify if we are doing shots, beer, ect...

If it is shots I'm gonna be dead from alcohol poisoning.

I have this season on tivo, after Big Brother I'll watch it and send you an email since you are the HTML wizard maybe you can come up with something cool.

[Pan_Yan]

I’ll leave the rules to you. I’ve never had a drink.

[Daffynition]

Step1: gather some friends, family or your favorite stuffed duck

Step 2: gather some drinks, really anything will do

Step 3: Watch Animal Planet this Friday at 6pm and any other time the show airs and follow these rules

You have to drink when…

Anybody has their shirt off (they’re in freaking Antarctica!)
When somebody says “Amaaazing” when they see a whale (aren’t there other words to describe whales?)
The Sea Shepherds throw butyric acid off the deck (don’t forget to stretch!)
Anybody says “Whaling ends today!” you have to CHUG your whole drink (yea that’ll stop ‘em!)
You get a “Whale Tales” quiz question wrong (really who knows that stuff?)
You get a “Whale Tales” quiz question right (how did you know that stuff?)
The Japanese use the LRAD (cover your ears!)
The Sea Shepherds drop a prop foul, twice if it works (oh sooo close!)
They do a crazy Ivan (who the hell is Ivan and why he is so crazy?)
The Sea Shepherds point the water cannon on the Steve Irwin at the Japanese (back at ya!)
The Sea Shepherds ram another ship you have to CHUG your whole drink (I mean when another ship “gets in their way”)

"Sea Shepherd maintains that the fish "were illegally caught after the season [had] closed, without an inspector onboard, or any paperwork documenting the legality of their catch."

How do they know this? Do they have operatives aboard the fishing vessels?

[Ronin]

I’m going to send an email to the Japanese Whaling Association. Maybe they would like to put in a bid. I’m sure it could be re-rigged as a catcher boat or something.

[mad_as_he$$]

Outstanding idea!!!

[OKSooner]

What a hoot.

As someone has already said, sell the ship to the Japanese whalers at a bargain price. Let them use it to tail the other hippie ships.

Hmmm.... "Ride, captain ride, upon your hippie ship..."

[Dengar01]

This comes from the boss!!!

And I quote Mr. Jim Robinson from the FReepathon Thread:

Woo hoo!!

And this just in:

$50.00 from the Whale Wars Ping List in honor of Captain Paul Watson!

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2752098/posts

Also in:

$10.00 monthly from Minnesota $20.00 from Never Never Land

Thank you all very much!!

And we’re now over TWENTY-NINE percent!!

This was a shameless plug to get people to join the ping list, you all know I can't resist myself :D

Anyways, no White Sox home game tomorrow which means I am here for the show!!!

Thanks Jim for the plug!!! And Pan I will start working on the rules now I am going to play this season since I think this season had the most brain dead moves I've ever seen in my life.

I am going to make four different drinks (beer, wine, shots (80 proof or less) and mixed drinks (80 proof or less). And I will FReepmail it to you and if you can get a funny South Park picture maybe of Coco Puffs getting harpooned you will be my hero!!!

[Dengar01]

How do they know this? Do they have operatives aboard the fishing vessels?

I don't eat tuna fish but all I know is the morons were in the Mediterranean with the Steve Irwin cutting lines. Claiming they were all endangered (I'm sure they think seagulls and pigeons are endangered...)

Now Captain Coco Puffs lost his flagship and is begging to get money even though I'd bet my house he has the money to pay for it. He wants the brain dead followers to pay for the ship.

I know, I'm sure I'm worse than Hitler because I don't care about tuna fish but this is silly.

Ok time to start working on the drinking game, I will FReepmail it to Pan_Yan tomorrow so he can HTML it.

[wastedyears]

LOL great episode

[wastedyears]

There’s a Whale Wars drinking game?

[rabidralph]

I misread the headline and thought that Shep Smith was detained. DANG!

[Dengar01]

There’s a Whale Wars drinking game?

Yep, I adjusted the rules to make it more clear to everyone. I don't want any FReeper dying from alcohol poisoning so I restricted the type of beverage you may consume during the show. Straight shots must be 40 proof or less. Drinks are considered (beer, wine or mixed drinks 80 proof or less mixed with juice or pop).

Ultimately I want everyone to have fun with this one because who doesn't love hippies making fools of themselves????

I got JR to give us a plug on the FReepathon because I'd rather see some money go to FR than the hippie losers from hell.

pan_yan does not drink, I sent him the rules simply because he is the HTML expert and he's a genius. I had to make the rules specific otherwise we'd lose way too many FReepers to alcohol poisoning.

Anyways more plugs, WHALE WARS THREAD TOMORROW!!! FReepmail Pan_Yan to be added to the Ping List!!!

"Stupid hippies. Playing chicken with other ships down in the Antarctic circle, +1000nm from civilization."

You know, I would wager that if the Discovery Channel cameras weren't there filming everything the Japanese navy would sink those hippies in a heartbeat.

Correction:
