“Wacky Shack is when you take any amount ‘found’ objects and pile them up on a buddy who is passed the fuck out. Often referred to as a ‘shaming’, this version encourages the piling on of boxes, furniture, and other large objects. So when the victim wakes up, he/she finds himself/herself in some sort of shack that is wacky. One rule is that you can’t ‘Wacky Shack’ someone in their own bed. Another is: the victim must still be wearing their shoes. Another fun twist is to create a ‘hand sandwich’. Grab two pieces of bread, some cheese and an assortment of condiments. Carefully place the hand of the ‘Wacky Shack-ee’ between said bread, cheese and condiments. But be careful. Don’t wake the meat!”
