Class Participation Is Far From Dying

(My biology teacher has taught us how to play ‘The Death Game.’ When your group of three or four gets a certain amount of points, someone in the group ‘dies’ and has to sit down. My group is discussing the importance of food and water.)

Teammate #1: “Well, you can go longer without food than water, so put water down as most important and food as number two.”

Teammate #2: “When someone has to die, I think [Teammate #1] should die first.”

(We continue working for a few minutes.)

Me: *without thinking* “You know, if worst comes to worst we can always eat [Teammate #1]’s body for food…”

Teammate #2: Oh, my God, that’s brilliant!
