Article: Since there’s drinking involved in this version of the game, all of the players need to be of legal drinking age. You can have as many players as you want, but if you have more than 10, break the large group into multiple groups of fewer players. It’s up to each individual player what they want to drink. But to make the game more fair, everyone should have about the same amount in their cups. You can play with beer, wine, or mixed drinks. You can also play the drinking version of the game using shots of alcohol. Every time someone has done the thing the player says, they have to take a shot. You’ll have to refill the shots as you go. Someone can volunteer to go first, or you can choose someone playing rock, paper, scissors. In the drinking version of the game, the things players say tend to be a little more risqué. The first player says “Never have I ever...” and then follows it with something they’ve never done. Try coming up with things you’ve never done, but that you know other people playing have. This ensures you don’t have to drink but they do, and can get players out of the game quicker. If you’ve done what the first player has said they haven’t, you have to take a drink of your drink. To make it fair, you can time it so all the players have to drink for the same amount of time. About 3 seconds is usually enough time. The next player - the player to the immediate left of the first player - takes their turn. They say something they’ve never done, using the “Never have I ever...” construction. The players who have done that thing drink, the ones who have not don’t drink. If the player can’t get anyone to drink – meaning the player is the only person who’s done the thing they said – the player has to drink. The game ends when only person has any of their drink left. That person wins the game. You can repeat the game as many times as you like.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Gather at least five players. Make sure everyone has the same amount to drink. Have the first player announce something they’ve never done. Have the players who have done what the first player said drink. Move to the next player. Have the first player drink if nobody else does. Repeat until only one person has alcohol left in their cup.
Article: Once the glass shaker is chilled, fill it with the cracked ice. Pour 4 ounces (120 ml) of gin over the ice, and then add 1 ounce (30 ml) of dry vermouth. Dry vermouth is perishable so make sure that you store it in the refrigerator. When all of the ingredients are in the shaker, you can stir or shake them to ensure that they’re fully combined and chilled. Stir or shake the martini until the outside of the shaker becomes frosty, which should take at least 30 seconds.  While famous fictional spy James Bond prefers his martinis “shaken, not stirred,” many mixologists prefer stirring because they feel shaking dilutes the drink and leaves it cloudy. You may want to try it both ways and see which you prefer. Whether you stir or shake the martini, try to touch the outside of the shaker as little as possible so the mixture stays cold. When shaking, place your hands just on the top and bottom of the shaker. If you’re stirring the martini, you’ll need to stir it approximately 50 times. When the martini is properly combined and chilled, use a Hawthorne strainer or a large slotted spoon to strain it into a chilled martini glass. Make sure that none of the ice makes its way into the glass.

Article: Getting too close to the surface can cause drips and runs. Painting too far from your surface causes uneven spraying. Holding the can 10 to 12 inches (25.4 to 30.5 cm) will help the paint job be as even and smooth as possible. Waiting at least an hour will ensure the paint is dry before you apply another coat. You can wait a slightly shorter or longer amount of time if you think the paint takes less or more than an hour to dry. Avoid touching the paint to see if it is dry.
