Consequences

I wonder if any of you have played consequences. You probably have. There is also written way of playing, but this is the illustrated version. A group of people plays, and each player is given a pen and paper. At the top of the paper they draw a head. They then fold down the paper, to conceal the head, but to leave two lines (denoting the neck) showing. They then pass their sheet of paper on to the next player, who draws the torso, and so on. When the paper is unfolded, the most hilarious drawings often appear.

Jake and Dinos Chapman used a variation on this game to create their Exquisite Corpse Series. There work takes the humour of the game in a darker direction, with results like the image below.
