Dares at work

One-point dares:

• Ignore the first five people who say 'good morning' to you.
• To signal the end of a conversation, clamp your hands over your ears and grimace.
• Leave your fly open for one hour. If anyone points it out, say, "Sorry, I really prefer it this way".
• Walk sideways to the photocopier.
• While going in an elevator, gasp dramatically each time the doors open.
• When in elevator with one other person, tap them on the shoulder and pretend it wasn't you.
• Finish all your sentences with "In accordance with the prophecy..."
• Don't use any punctuation.
• Use your highlighter pen on the computer screen.

Three-point dares:

• Say to your boss, "I like your style", wink, and shoot him with double-barrelled fingers while making a clicking sound with your tongue that resembles the sound of a revolver.
• Kneel in front of the water cooler and drink directly from the nozzle.
• Shout random numbers while someone is counting.
• Every time you get an email, shout "e-mail".
• Put decaf in the coffee maker for 3 weeks. Once everyone is over his or her caffeine addictions, switch to espresso.
• Introduce yourself to a new colleague as "the office bicycle". Then wink and pout.
• Call I.T. help desk and tell them that you can't seem to access any pornography web sites.

Five-point dares:

• At the end of a meeting, suggest that, for once, it would be nice to conclude with the singing of the national anthem (extra points if you actually launch into it yourself).
• Walk into a very busy person's office and while they watch you with growing irritation, turn the light switch on/off 10 times.
• For an hour, refer to everyone you speak to as "Bob".
• Announce to everyone in a meeting that you "really have to go do a number two".
• In a meeting or crowded situation, slap your forehead repeatedly and mutter, "Shut up, damn it, all of you just shut up!"
• During the course of a meeting, slowly edge your chair towards the door.
• As often as possible, skip rather than walk.
• Ask people what sex they are. Laugh hysterically after they answer.
• Hump the photocopier. When someone spots you, stop and cough embarrassingly, then lean in to the machine and whisper loudly, "I'll call you tonight".
