The anything but "it" thread

The anything but "it" thread

Welcome to the Anything but "it" thread - a dedicated place for distractions!

The idea: Pick a game, make a game, bring your own distraction, have a chat (maybe even a laugh) to stay busy if it helps.

Here are some ideas that might be helpful distractions, or ways to have some fun thinking about anything but "it" for a while:

* The getting to know you questions game. Here's a thread with some great ideas for getting to know you questions - thanks 5-HT

* The Lyrics Game - Lisajane started this great lyrics game thread here

* The classic 20 Questions, also known as Animal, Vegetable or Mineral

* Virtual Celebrity Heads - each person chooses a celebrity for someone else, then using yes/no questions, take turns in guessing until someone guesses correctly

*Two Truths and a Tale - tell two truths and one not-truth about yourself and others guess which is the not-truth

* Would You Rather? - ask someone a question with two options to choose from and they explain why. Example: Would you rather have a horses tail or a unicorn horn? Or for the more serious - would you rather be rich and live a short life, or poor and live a long life?

That will do for now - we can add as we go if we like 🙂

Re: The anything but "it" thread

That's ok @outlander. I thought you'd missed it but smiled because we both suggested to try a different game at the same time.

Ok so I think you have brown hair so I'm going with number 1 as a myth 🙂

Re: The anything but "it" thread

Awesome 🙂 Do you have an image in your mind of what people here look like @outlander? I have a kind of image of some of the people I am getting to know here. I know I'll never know but it's interesting to think about, I think anyway

In response to: Re: The anything but "it" thread

Re: The anything but "it" thread

yeah @CheerBear i do actually or if i cant kind of see them i see their personality

like you- i can either see you having blonde or brown hair- im probably off the track here - hmmm maybe green or brown eyes

but if im right of the track then i can see your personality

which i remeber you saying somewhere your loud? so i see you as a very bright and smart, liveley person who is caring and kind and passionate. i see patience and willingness in you and im sure you have an amazing smile

Re: The anything but "it" thread

Was i even close lol @CheerBear

Re: The anything but "it" thread

That made me smile a lot thanks @outlander 🙂

I think I said I have a loud voice while I was talking about feeling passionate and taking a stand. I meant it more in that I will make sure I am heard if I am fighting for something/someone that I feel strongly about. I'm kind of quiet usually, although I can be a bit silly and energetic and being that I care little about what strangers/passers-by/people I don't really know etc might think or see of me, it means I don't exactly 'blend in' too often.

I see you as being really kind and gentle with people you know, and very hardworking. I imagine you too have a really lovely smile, although I imagine that it isn't seen as often as it could be. I totally picked the brown hair 😉 Your eyes sound beautiful and I imagine them being quite intense (in a good way)

Re: The anything but "it" thread

Haha yes the hair colour is brown
My eye colour use to be a bright blue with a brown ring around the ouside now its faded to a more grey blue but thats depression for you lol

And you dont have to blend in @CheerBear i like u the way u are. Was i even close with hair and eye colour. I know your personality lol

Re: The anything but "it" thread

It's a secret @outlander 😛 (really I can't say too much sorry). Let's just say that I'm aspiring/planning to be a rainbow unicorn though. We have to bury this now - rainbow unicorns are a rarity 😉

You up for one more round of animal/vegetable/mineral?

In response to: The anything but "it" thread

Re: The anything but "it" thread

Haha lol rainbow unicorns are cute @CheerBear

Sure lets play another round
