Pinky Card (1)
-
This card is given to the player who has the longest pinky and is worth 1 point; they are also the starting dealer. It's also recommended to nickname this person Pinky—especially if they're on a date—in which case you should also call their date Pinky. If there is a tie, the two pinky twins battle it out in a game of thumb wrestling.

Chicken Butt Card / Rule the Roost (1 / 2)
-
This is a dealer card shuffled into the dealer deck. This card is also drawn at random and when it's drawn, that dealer can make a rule, just like the a-hole they are! The only way to cancel the rule is for all players (minus the rule-making dealer) to join in a Rockette style dance. It will be a roostbellion!
