Defying Your Paper Orders

(Our history teacher has decided we are going to play “Civil War.” He divides class into two teams, North and South. Unfortunately, he designates a mean girl/queen bee as the general of my team.)

Teacher: *to Queen Bee* “First, get a piece of paper.”

Queen Bee: *to Friend #1* “I designate you next in command… Get a piece of paper.”

Friend #1: *to Friend #2* “I designate you next in command… Get a piece of paper.”

Friend #2: *to next classmate* “I designate you next in command… Get a piece of paper.”

(The order for a piece of paper gets passed down through our team until it gets to the last person in the pecking order.)

Second To The Very Last Person: “I designate you next in command… Get a piece of paper.”

Me: “No.”
