Every year my high school had a “formal” instead of a prom. Freshmen-seniors were welcome to come and there was always a new location each formal. We’d have a winter and spring formal and I went to every formal regardless of if I had a date or not. We were not allowed to leave unless there was a special circumstance, so I invented a game to pass the time with my friends, “crack shipping.” Basically everyone thinks of a name of a character (can be limited to a franchise/series or limitless) and on the count of three everyone says the name and those characters are in a romantic relationship. We’d have ridiculous ships, sensible ships, self ships, incest ships, and never-in-a-million-years ships as well as endless laughs and good times. It was especially good the one year my BFFs date decided to actually come up with the story behind the relationship(s).
