Brain Games

Date: 12/25/2018

Me and a group of 5 other people were going to play some game with another person we were meeting in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night, at some abandoned farm. I wasn't told the rules of the game even though everyone thought I was. And everyone was excited and thought it was gonna be great, including my hubby who invited me along. Basically the six of us had an hour to: 1) keep out of easy reach of the person who was "it" that we were meeting 2) come up with a quote from a movie or TV show that was vague enough to have been said by anyone in real life, but could also be pinpointed to that character 3) Express that quote though a series of images from your phone Once an hour was up, the drugs would kick in, so don't even try to run or the "it" person would find you after that. I don't know what kind of drugs that meant.. I quickly learned that the person who was "it" had caught one of the players and killed them. So, without knowing what I was supposed to do to survive, climbed as high as I could on some awkward beam and stayed there the whole game. (Though at one point I was in a car with the others and was like FUCK IT, I'M DYING, I'M GONNA SING ALONG TO DISNEY). By the end of the hour, only my hubby and I were left. He didn't come up with anything good, and I was just barely in reach, so both of us "lost." Somewhere along the line I learned that everyone else had played once before and somehow survived it. Not this time lolol. The person who was "it" said anyone left by the end who hadn't won was up for grabs. Which meant they were going to eat our brains. All in good fun!! was the vibe. So they leaned my hubby over a weird shallow sink and took out this big instrument that was like a giant fork with 8 prongs, except each one was spaced out a bit more and they were actually small curved blades. This was going to be used to access my hubby's brains, which he abided to willingly. I was pretty mortified though the whole thing but acted like it was fine. I was like "just make sure you get it all sliced in one chop, ha!" So of course the person botched it, the blades got stuck a bit and they had to pull it out of my hubby's head to try again, while hubby was knelt by the sink, complying and not putting up a fuss. My turn was next. I woke up. It's 4AM on Xmas day.
