After watching Edward Scissorhands, the cult classic Tim Burton film about a sentimental young man with scissors for hands, one beer-lovin' individual—who may or may have been inebriated at the time—concocted the brilliant idea of strapping two 40oz. bottles of beer to their hands and making a game out of it.

And just like that, Edward Fortyhands, the drinking game that pits your liver against your bladder in a battle for supremacy, was born.

For the uninitiated, the object of the game is simple: drink two bottles that are taped to your hands—without any help—before urinating yourself.

Naturally, while you attempt that bladder-swelling feat, your hands will be, more or less, rendered useless. In other words, you can’t do anything except drink, which makes the entire affair infinitely more hilarious – or sad, depending on your attitude towards these sorts of things.

Remember: drink responsibly (as responsibly as you can with two 40oz. bottles of beer, anyway). Trips to the hospital are never fun for anyone.
