The "Mind Over Matter" game

[J&B ATW]

Has anyone played this game? We used to when we were kids. Two people take turns tickling each other's feet to see how long they can last (up to two minutes). You time it to see who wins. Laughter is allowed but you can't pull your feet away.

B and I have a female friend that she wants to take on, but schedules haven't worked out yet. If I tell her friend where B's spots are, that would be cheating, right? Haha!

Sounds like fun. Can't say I've ever played though.

I play this game with my fiancé all the time! (Well, when we actually have time to lay on the couch). I don't know if we consider it a game, but he'll casually tickle me while we're laying on the couch and I try to pretend it doesn't get to me for as long as I can. Usually about 15-20 seconds

Sounds like a cute game! So far, I haven't been tickled in such a way that I couldn't physically control myself so I think I'd handle myself quite well.

Kids still play that game today, only they consider them "challenges" the objective is the same, withstand the tickling without pulling away. Pulling away restarts the timer (usually a minute or so). Multiple implements can be used, (we used to use dish soap as it was easier to get a hold of and far less conspicuous than baby oil) and laughter is allowed, even encouraged as it supposedly helps you keep still (which anyone who's ever been tickled can attest to this being bologna).
