As we waste away in quarantine, the months and weeks get longer, every day blurs into the next.
I'm excited to bring you that next mundane step in your quarantine activities schedule. It doesn't require buying flour, yeast, a DIY hobby kit, or complicated YouTube instructions. You just need some old-fashioned pen and paper. Watch the below video:
A new game is invented 😀
Grab a friend/lover/family member, two pieces of paper, two markers. Just don't use a Sharpie that could bleed through onto someone's pristine white shirt, i guess.
One person stands against a wall, while the other draws on that person's back.
The person drawing on the back starts drawing, stroke by stroke on the paper. The person leaning against the wall tries to mimic what they think is being drawn on them.
It's a psychological/cognitive test that will wake up your sense of human connection.
If you're lucky, you'll also end up with a cool piece of art.
Responders on Twitter claim that this isn't anything new, that it was a game we always played in middle school.
@engineeringvids This has been going on for at least 25 years because I did it 25 years ago in school
Meanwhile, most of us probably don't care about how "innovative" the game is, we're just curious to try it out for ourselves.
My boyfriend and I tried it and it turned out like this.
