Yes, exactly there was the goal. Didn't know that term
Where's my second name on that list?
Shot to the arm?
Switzerland. It also stopped back then, but somehow started again recently. Not sure if it's only in my stupid group of friends though xD
It probably also was below waist level back in the days. I don't remember it exactly anymore. But it probably changed over time because everyone kept protesting with "eye level!" when it was too high.
Punishment for flinching is great xD
I wonder if this "game" is the same everywhere
What are your local rules for it?
This is how I know it:
- The person (A) who shows the 👌🏻 must do it below eye level
- If another person (B) sees it, they can put a finger in it 👉🏻
- Person A can then close the hole trying to catch person B's finger ✊🏻
- If Person B didn't stick a finger in it in time, or if Person A caught Person B's finger, then they can continue with the punishment.
- However if Person B successfully stuck a finger in and drew it out in time, then they can continue with the punishment.
Punishment:
- Draw an imaginary X on the other person's shoulder 👉🏻
- Punch the same spot 🤜🏻
- Wipe the spot 👋🏻
- If these steps are not followed (e.g. you forgot to wipe), then the other person may do the punishment steps on you.
Basically everyone at the same age as me just knows this and (involuntarily) has to play along if challenged...
Korobeiniki (the Tetris Song)
The Discworld series has nice world building, however the individual books focus on different characters for telling a story and getting to know that world.
The Silmarilion
In my head:
You: "Mom! Everything looks bad!"
Mom: "I know sweetheart, but even though everything seems hopeless we have to focus on the positive things.."
Kinda creepy tbh
Yes I am, and so is Bilbo.
