For my birthday once, I thought it would be funny to play Twister all night. And it was. But not limited to the reasons I initially thought.

Of course it was fun to play an old school board game with a bunch of post-college aged adults, but it was also fun for all of the reasons illustrated in this video, and everyone knows it.

When do you get to pelvic thrust your best friends with impunity? Never, except when you’re really drunk and/or playing Truth or Dare. And those things are rare. Twister is an ever-ready way to break it off with a seemingly innocent motive.

Everyone was like, “Hey, you know, it’s his birthday and this is what he wanted to do.”

If only that worked for like skinny dipping or something.

Anyway, until then, thank you Twister and your making of awkward experiences a teensy bit less awkward.
