Their suggestions include raiding the medicine cabinet for “boner pills,” avoiding snobby hipsters, and crafting a fake herpes sore out of peppermint bark to avoid an unwanted under-the-mistletoe kiss. All their tips seem pretty useful until Ilana starts feeling the effects of the boner pills and, as a result, begins acting like a male puppy who just discovered humping. Lesson learned: Maybe skip out on the medicine cabinet at this year’s holiday parties.
