Everybody joins on their phone. A stick to hop around, and NUDGE (a little lunge: bump somebody into the gross stuff).
Everything gross you touch puts germs on you. They ride along where everybody can see them. Past 50 you stink. Past 100 there are flies. Fewest germs wins.
Touch another toothpick and some germs jump from the dirtier one to the cleaner one. So the clean ones run, and the filthy ones go hug people.
Hands come down (watch for the shadow) and take whoever's closest. They stab you into the nearest snack. Stay by the cheese. Stay away from the shrimp.
You're on a cocktail weenie in barbecue sauce. Steer. Dodge the bubbles and the ladle. Ram people to dunk them.
Poke the food out of his teeth (every poke is gross). The laziest toothpick gets chewed. The tongue licks.
FIVE SECOND RULE: be under the hand when Gary says five and you're saved. Biscuit the dog wants to lick you.
A quick game on your phone. The winner hands some germs to last place.
Snacks: cheese, olives, meatballs, deviled eggs, shrimp, and my famous ranch. Toothpicks are in the glass.
Little smokies in the crockpot. It's been on WARM since Tuesday.
Reminder: the five second rule is in effect in the break room. Please keep Biscuit out of the snacks.
Doug, please bring your own toothpicks this year.
