Horrible Ice Breakers

thisismynickname2 · June 2016

Ugh not to mention, no matter how "brief" an icebreaker is supposed to be, the Chatty Cathys always go on waaaaay too long. Now I'm stuck eating rubber chicken and listening to someone natter on about stupid shit I don't care about.

Last weeks' major meeting I was at had 20 minutes on the agenda for the overview and introductions. It took 50 minutes.

This is what we actually put on our wedding website in the A-Z of FAQ...

Quizzes, games and activities?

We are too cheap to buy Mr and Mrs Quizzes, lawn games or any other activities so instead we are just giving you loads of booze and promise not to seat you next to your Arch Nemesis. Break your own ice.

charlotte989875 · June 2016

Charlotte is an College professor and reigning queen of the awkward dance party. She has an affinity for gin and all things Harry Potter.

Mr. Charlotte is a Steelers fan who likes his dog more than people. He refused to participate in this game so this bio was written by his stunningly beautiful wife.

MissKittyDanger · June 2016

MissKittyDanger is anti-social and hates initiating conversation 98% of the time. She likes animals, makeup and eats nutella from a jar when she's stressed.

Mr Danger likes his wife, computers, science and tattoos. Also has strong opinions but is very nice.

sparklepants41 · June 2016

Sparkle Pants loves jelly beans, vodka, hummus, and adventures. Like Charlotte, she too comes from the Kingdom of the Awkward Dance Party. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Journalism and works in marketing for a large professional services firm and loves her dog, who is nicknamed (among myriad other things) sparklepants.

Mr. Pants works in finance and has no idea his wife is writing this. He loves their dog sparklepants, and most other dogs. He is allergic to cats and seafood (more for me!), and he loves politics, fishing, grilling, lacrosse, and the Patriots.

MCmeow · June 2016

MCMeow is antisocial who secretly wants to be social but is too awkward to initiate conversation. She wishes she can paint all day and have a big garden but works as a junior architect which isn't so bad for now. She loves the Beatles and other old music. She has two cats, three turtles and a husky. She practices Kung fu because why not. She is also a hell of a cook and can make furniture.

Mr. MCMeow is antisocial who actually likes to be antisocial, except with me. And yet it's easier for him to make friends, no fair. He's also a junior architect. His hobbies are making weird cat noises when no one else is around and playing computer games and playing with our new steamer ?_? Not as good of a cook but he can make furniture much better than me.

missJeanLouise · June 2016

Miss Jean Louise loves art, theatre, and horses. She is not a fan of crowds, waiting, or slow walkers. She is a bit of contradiction but will never lie to you on purpose and will always drive you to or pick you up from the airport.

Mr Louise is highly intelligent, driven, and skeptical. He is hysterical and popular with everyone even though he doesn't feel like he has many friends. He love tactical clothing but works at a computer. When he gets drunk he likes to dance with Miss Jean to records.

OurWildKingdom · June 2016

Forgot a bio for FW!

Future Mrs. OWK is a veteran who wants to be a hospital chaplain when she finishes her degrees. She loves Doctor Who, WWE, ESPN, making up dirty lyrics to classic rock songs, Harry Potter fan fiction, and Frappucinos. She has strong opinions about chili (no beans, ever) and grits (butter, salt, pepper, and *maybe* cheese).

Greenjinjo · July 2016

Ms Greenjinjo is an engineer and enjoys craft beer, board games and Sci Fi. She is also a coffee snob and loves a good cheese board. Dislikes include politics, mess in communal spaces and corned beef.

Mr Greenjinjo is a software dev and also enjoys craft beer, board games and Sci Fi. He loves his FPS games and is actually pretty good at them. His dislikes include lamb, dogs that aren't well behaved, socks on in the bed and cold feet on the back of his legs at night.

Well, he can't have it both ways! LOL

SaintPaulGal · July 2016

Ooo, I want a chance to do my partner too!

SaintPaulGal said:

SaintPaulGal has a garden for the first time in her adult life, and she has to struggle not to be tedious as fuck by talking about it continuously always. She enjoys starting furniture refinishing projects and convincing herself she will finish them at a later date, mixing killer cocktails from her overstocked home bar, and wishing it wasn't 90 degrees so she could go outside without wilting.

Mr. SaintPaul is very good at his very corporate job. He enjoys photography, cribbage, collecting cool old things, and he will almost certainly cry during a sad movie. He is phenomenal about trying new things even if he doesn't necessarily "get" them (see: garden.) Likes: coffee, bananas, cocktails, donuts. Dislikes: slow songs, foods with crunchy seeds, and sad movies in public (see above.)

ThisShamanluvsaMage · July 2016

This Shaman is an exhausted mother of five. She recently moved from SD to GA. She enjoys eating southern foods, naptime, and fantasizing about little fairies coming to clean and do laundry. Her dog's gas is horrendous. Dislikes people in general, diapers, humidity, and heat.

Sherbie25 · July 2016

Sherbie is a Reception (4-5 yr olds) teacher who loves food and gets Tourette's when she drives. Enjoys horror films but can't walk around the house at night without the lights on. Hates mess and clutter but also hates cleaning. Has a laugh that sounds like a witch's cackle. Likes to cuddle Mr Sherbie from behind so she can smell his back (I love his smell!)
Mr Sherbie is a physiotherapist who also loves to eat and enjoys comedy films. He hates baked beans, gravy and mayonnaise. He is very generous and will pick my friends and I up from a night out whatever time it is.
We're the saddos who like to quote funny lines to each other that no else gets.

Greenjinjo · July 2016

@ILoveBeachMusic I know, right? I must admit I have been breaking this "rule" when we are watching SGU in bed. He isn't very happy when he figures it out trollolol.

@MissKittyDanger good choice as well! Has your H been playing Overwatch?

ETF - Damn autocorrect!

MissKittyDanger · July 2016
