If you’ve never played Pictophone, you should. Sit in a circle with a bunch of people, and everyone has small pieces of paper equal to the number of people in the circle. Write a phrase/word/something on your first paper, then pass to the left. You then draw what’s described on the paper. Pass again to the left. Now you write a short description of what you see and pass to the left. Keep going until you get your original pile back. Have everyone show/read through their pile to see how, say, “The Barstool Brawler” turns into “a group of three-headed mutants observing a lighthouse.” (Or, say, how a unicorn and a narwhal in love turn *back* into a unicorn and narwhal in love.)
Thank you, ARDA, for playing this game and being awesome in general! With you guys around, Enjuhneer writes itself. <3
I started one with “The Death Star”. It ended up as “a man with a flaming sword running on a conveyor belt.”
We’ve played this at my company’s release parties, but we call it Telephone Pictionary. We do each chain on a single sheet of paper (folding over after each turn), to make it easier to follow.
A wall of these serves as a very effective distraction when people come to visit our area of the office.
If I were a unicorn I’d be a robot unicorn and therefore has no need for romance with a narwhal
Oh, these were so much fun in our high school library after school. Even more fun is stumbling across some of them two years later ^_^
I’ve always called this game Telepictionary, but you are right, it is truly awesome and everyone should play
Played this with some friends once and was very disturbed that when I wrote “Touched by his noodley appendage” no one knew what I was talking about.
I’m pretty sure Tails wouldn’t be radioactive; at least not more than usual. Taking in radiation doesn’t make you give off radiation. Radiation is generally given off by high-numbered elements (and Technetium) decaying, but atoms that get hit by this radiation don’t themselves become high-numbered elements.
Everyday objects can give off small amounts of background radiation, but that doesn’t make them “radioactive.”
