Weekly Humorist, a humor magazine I often submit to and occasionally get in, runs these Hashtag Games on Twitter (X), where they name a topic and we submit humorous responses. These games play right into my gag reflex, so I always throw up something. I've taken to setting my calendar to get online every Wednesday to "play" (and by "play" I mean submit content to their website for free--I like to think of it as pun bono work). I always submit a bunch of them on X (Twitter) and some of them get selected for inclusion to their online site.
This was an odd topic, because it basically combine two topics they've used over and over; drinks and horror movies. But it was different enough to work. There were a lot of fun ones. I went off topic a bit, submitted the Magnificent Seven & Seven (which was ignored) and then, in a bit of a stretch, I submitted Indiana Jones and the Shirley Temple of Doom. Okay, one, it's not a slasher movie (although the heart removal scene gif was used) and secondly, you can't get sloshed on Shirley Temples. But it got picked. I did 15 or so and got 8 included, so, yay me! Check out the fun from a couple of weeks ago at:
