Thread: The "Last Clap" Game

  1. #1

    Default The "Last Clap" Game

    Remember how whenever an audience that you were in applauded there'd always be this last clap that someone tried to sneak in? Would you be one of those people that try to make the last clap?

    I did that a lot when I was a kid.

    I never realised anyone did that. The thing that was always popular at my school was that kind of akward really slow starting clap that you would see in the movies that builds up faster and faster until everyone is clapping loud.

    I would often try to either be the loudest, or the first to clap, not the last though, I'd often stop first actually.

    I don't understand your reason for doing this. I generally quit clapping as soon as I sense that the noise has begun to drop off from its peak.

    No. I stop clapping well before everyone else has. I don't like clapping.

    Unless we're talking clam claps.

    I make sure I am not that person. I always thought they were either attention-whores or just didn't know when to stop clapping.

    I never clapped at all. I would sit there with a dour look and grumble. Not kidding. I hate assemblies or ceremonies or anywhere where I am supposed to be part of a <del>herd of cattle</del> audience.

    Clearly there was a clerical error in awarding me the Misanthrope of the Month Award this month.

    I was unaware of such a game.

    I used to do that when I was little. I stopped trying before most others, though.

    Someone should make a show out of that. The person who stopped last would win prizes.

    The audience would win more often than the contestants.

    Yes, I am always last clapper.
    It looks like the ground had a sex change.
