  • C. Have sex

  • Buy a new dirndl.

  • Start drinking more!! But drink water and green tea also.

  • Amy sez A. 'cuz she's started already.

  • B. Oh gawd….my liver is already whining!

  • I feel like somewhere between A & B. I don't want to completely stop, but 1.5 weeks of Oktoberfest-level drinking is all I can handle…

    Word Verification: eprep

    Does that mean we can do electronic preparation for Oktoberfest?

  • C. Buy adult diapers to wear at the event in order to minimize social disruptions caused by frequent trips to the WC on behalf of the excessive beer drinking.

  • C. Are you having sex yet?

  • Headbang – while I have no objection to the content of your suggestion, I'm afraid I'm not seeing how it will better prepare us for Ofest. Please enlighten.

  • Well, Jul. It can't hurt. Except sometimes.

  • Bella – good idea. One can never have enough tract.

    Joke – Ooo, green tea sounds healthy. Like it might help me to feel less guilty about my liver abuse. Good idea.

    Amy – Good job. Keep it up.

    Tazz – We'll have to compare your approach with Amy's and see who comes out better. You know, in the interest of science.

    Scatter – Your approach sounds like no fun at all.

    Yessica – that sounds messy. Perhaps I'll go with a catheter instead.

    Headbang – Oktoberfest can hurt sometimes, too.

  • …be afraid, be very afraid…

  • A and C. Start drinking, but forget the diapers. Just go out and get yourself a few weeks worth of pants-shitting drunk.

  • C. Try to catch a cold now to build up your immune system. The beer you will survive no problem with or without training. But that damn Oktoberfest flu is hell.

  • I just had a good laugh reading through the answers ;-) I've never been to a real Oktoberfest. Only those American remakes. But I've heard hilarious stories of these & have to go across the border to witness it for myself one day!

  • C Continue drinking. Make a smooth transition from beergarden season to Oktoberfest.

  • Carey – my liver is, at least.

    Anon – the way these answers are going, I'm starting to wonder how I managed to get through last year's fest without soiling myself…

    Michelle – I hear you. Last year my head was so stuffed up that it hurt to go on the roller coasters. Can't let that happen again.

    A Touch of Dutch – if you love large, drunk, smelly crowds, cheesy music, and warm beer, you'll love Oktoberfest! :)

    Corregio – That has been my strategy for most of our time in Munich. If only there were more breaks in between drinking occasions, it might actually be a good idea…

Do you have anything to say?
