Emotion game
Hi everyone!
For the purpose of this game, players list an emotion/ feeling (let's say 'happy' as an example) and the next player has to list the way that emotion:
1. Tastes
2. Smells
3. Looks
4. Feels
5. Sounds to them.
For instance, to me happiness:
1. Tastes like an ice cream sundae

Querulous
@stonepixie Lol! You did pretty well for 'Embarassed'! Totally agree with being sung 'Happy Birthday' in a crowded restaurant. It's even more awkward if it's not even your birthday
Alrighty. Next emotion!
