This game is a different wrinkle from "I never..." (which some call "Never have I ever..."). Given the finite scope of human abilities and lifespans, the topic of "never" is too broad for my tastes. This game is "I always..." and deals with the absolutes in life.

The first person says "I always..." and then something that they always (or nearly always) do. The next person to post replies with whether or not they would drink -- no if they do the same thing (being similar) and yes if they do not (being different). Explanations are optional. Then that person continues with a new "I always..." of their own.

Example:

Player 1: "I always look both ways before crossing the street."

Player 2 responds: *drinks* (Sometimes I'm reckless!)
"I always Google search people I date."


If the second player was as cautious as the first, they would have responded with *does not drink*.

This game is in favor of military training, religious dogma, old habits, and obsessive compulsive disorder. So share away! You may have more in common with your fellow denizens of Starbase 118 than you thought.
