Spirit Week 3

Welcome back to Spirit Week contestants; best of luck in this 3rd edition! Please send daily totals to your regional rep, or post it to the blog via comment. Remember that Spirit Week scoring is based on the honor system. Now strap on your spirit pants and away we go.

Monday

Movie Quote Monday – 10 points for each usage of a movie quote that fits into conversation. No points awarded if the quote stands alone or has no relevance to the conversation.

Tuesday

Rickey Henderson Tuesday - 10 points for each instance of talking about yourself in the 3rd person, subject/verb disagreement, omission of possessive pronouns, omission of pronouns, and omission of S’s. Listen to Henderson's Hall of Fame acceptance speech for an example and keep in mind the guy had public speaking lessons prior to the speech. (Yes, you can earn multiple points in 1 sentence/e-mail).

Wednesday

Talk Like The Kids Text Wednesday - 10 pts for using LOL, ROTFL, AFK, OIC, OMG, etc in regular conversation. 5 bonus points if you actually pronounce these as words, rather than as acronyms.

Thursday

Song and Dance Thursday - 10 pts for each time you spontaneously break into your favorite song or dance during conversation.

Friday

Foreign Phrase Friday – 10 points for each usage of a foreign phrase within the context of a conversation.

As usual, double the points for all the above while being observed by a supervisor or client.

Thanks to Haycock for the special contribution.
