A Game Called "Random Connections!!"
Let's play a game called "RANDOM CONNECTIONS!!!!!!!"
Here's how you play. Person 1 writes an interesting fact about him/herself. Another person (a random person) writes a comment right after Person 1 if they share the same/a similar interesting fact and THEN writes a different interesting fact about him/herself. Then, the chain continues. This could be a disaster or it could be really fun. Try to come up with unique facts about yourself. If you don't link EXACTLY to someone, it's okay. You just have to connect in some way to their fact.
For example:
Person 1: My favorite food is cream cheese.
Person 2: My favorite food is cheese whiz!
I've been to Madrid, Spain.
Person 3: I've been to Saragosa, Spain!
My stomach growls every single night.
Person 4: My stomach growls every single morning!
I think Dr. Nettles looks like Bob Dylan.
Person 5: I think Dr. Nettles looks like Bob Dylan!
I can't roll my r's.
And so on and so forth.
Ready? I'll start... I can't stand the feeling of my toenails against the inside of cheap sleeping bags.
