attn: beer pong enthusiasts

Via Jezebel:
The housing market may be going to hell and the stock market is on shaky ground, but the Wall Street Journal has found pocket enjoying economic growth: the beer pong industry. Explains beer pong entrepreneur Adam Wasserman: "When you move into a new place, you need the basics: a TV, fridge and a beer-pong table."

Our immediate reaction: Oh brother. At which point we realized our own brother still owns a beer pong table somewhere. (It is, after all, a game of skill, as Duncan Caroll, beer pong's answer to Anna Wintour, points out: "If they just wanted to get drunk, they would chug beers from the corner store.") Anyway, uh, better beer pong than "gray" rape?

I have a beer pong table in the back yard.

I've more than once contemplated one in the spare bedroom...

I'd be more than willing to assist you in that venture if you so choose to do so.

My brain quails in fear at the thought.
