Recommended punishments for a Christmas party

butt bat (a prank/hazing act of hitting someone’s buttocks with a bat)

Penalty game: butt bat (a forfeit where the loser gets hit on the butt with a bat)

It’s a punishment game that’s become a staple on variety shows.

The rules are very simple: you give the loser a hard whack on the butt with a bat.

If you actually try it, I recommend using a toy rubber bat or a bat made by rolling up a newspaper!

Poem

We played a party game at a group date and it had everyone in stitches lol

How about a penalty game where you improvise and perform a slightly cringey poem? Fairytale vibes are fine, emo vibes are fine! The point is to present something embarrassingly poetic.

For people who are usually a bit quirky, it might do no damage at all.

nose tickling twist (a thin paper twist used to stimulate the inside of the nose)

[Penalty Game] Tickle the nose with a paper twist | #11 Cotton Candy’s “Don’t Let Them Fool You!”

This is an easy penalty game you can do with a simple item: twist a tissue by hand to make a pointed tip, then insert it into your nose and tickle the inside.

It’s even more fun if you set a goal like “It ends when you sneeze” or “It ends when you tear up!”

solo photo booth (solo purikura)

I tried taking a purikura photo by myself!

I think everyone took purikura at least once back in their school days, but have you ever taken it alone? Most people would probably say, “No way!!” So how about making “taking purikura by yourself” a penalty game? It takes a lot of courage to go into one of those lively booths all by yourself, and the embarrassment is no joke.

And when you end up with a strip of purikura featuring only you, it’s kind of heartbreaking—subtly damaging enough to make for a pretty effective penalty game…

10x Wasabi Sushi

[Intense Battle] If you lose at that game from Kaiji, you have to eat 10 times the amount of wasabi sushi!!

It’s a punishment game where you make the wasabi in a wasabi sushi—famous in penalty games and Russian roulette—ten times stronger.

Even people who like wasabi will be shocked; it looks downright horrifying.

Apparently it’s pretty intense, so it’s recommended to have plenty of water ready before you try it.

flick to the forehead

Felt-style! Behold the ultimate forehead flick!!

A classic for penalty games is the forehead flick.

It’s simple: you snap your finger against the other person’s forehead.

Since it’s a light penalty, it’s just the right level of sting for a fun party.

As an variation, it might be interesting to change the spot—like the upper arm or the back of the hand.

Smile at McDonald’s

Can you order just a smile and get a receipt? [McDonald’s]

McDonald’s used to keep in mind “always greet customers with a smile,” and “Smile: ¥0” was even listed on the menu.

Since it was on the menu, the idea arose that you could order it—hence this penalty game.

It’s embarrassing for the person ordering the “smile,” but it also burdens the staff, so it’s important to gauge who seems likely to respond or who’s used to it.

Including the fact that it really was listed in the past but has since been removed from the menu, it’s a penalty game with significant risks.
