Human Absurdity Ping Pong

Instructions for the leader

Divide the group into pairs. Partners take turns acting out an absurd, irrational, or emotional human trait for 30-60 seconds each (e.g., someone overreacting dramatically, someone complaining about a trivial thing, someone compulsively recording their life.) Alternate back and forth like a ping-pong match, with each person building on the absurdity. Encourage exaggerated gestures and voices. Demonstrate a silly example to get started.
