how to play asshole:

first, you need about 4 or more people, and sum beer.

deal out all the cards.  the person with the 2 of spades goes first.  then you
keep going up (ie 3, 4, 5).  the suit doesn't matter.  

if you lay a card, say a 5, then the next person lays a 5, the person after him
is skipped, and they have to drink.

if someone lays say a 7, and you lay 2 7's, the next person drinks, and to beat
the 2 7's everyone has to keep going higher (ie 2 or more of the same number)

now, say you lay 7's, the next person can beat that by laying 3 of anything.

special cards: the 2.  the 2's clear.  say someone lays 3 9's.  and you can't  
beat it, but you have a 2.  that will clear the pile, at that time you just moveall the cards aside.

you can also do the same thing with jacks as you could with 2's.

the 3.  the 3 is wild.  so you can use it as anything you like, except for  
clearing the pile.

the person who runs out of cards first is the president.  you keep playing untileveryone is out.  the last person out is the asshole.  and the president can 
make the asshole do whatever he chooses.  ie, making the asshole drink for any
fuck ups.

* being president 3 times you get to make a rule.
