one of my fav games is one i invented, called the My Name Is game.
the rules are you gotta say "Hi my name is ___, whats ur name" (and the other person says "oh hi [name u said], nice to meet you, my name is ____"
except the rule is
ure not allowed to plan what you say; as soon as you catch your brain preparing a word or phrase to speak, you must discard it; ideally you should be surprised by what comes out of your mouth.
(my first several rounds are usually me introducing myself Fuck Shit Cunt or somethin)
round 2 is the "fun facts" game, where you do the same thing except with "Fun fact, did you know _______?"
round 3 is "would you rather ___ or ___?" and the audience has to choose
and ofc for all of this you have to discard every word that you *planned* to say

Ok, but that gives me a problem, I’m a visual thinker, and a lot what goes on in my head isn’t necessarily coherent thought. I do not know how my mouth is supposed to fit “the first 10 seconds of https://youtu.be/Hy8kmNEo1i8 “ (including visuals and music) without preparing it.
