What Are You Doing!

Players

Rules

Player 1 begins miming some action. Player 2 shouts, "What are you doing?" Player 1 responds with some action other than that which he or she is miming. Player 1 stops performing the action and watches Player 2 perform whatever action Player 1 suggested. After several seconds (just long enough for Player 2 to establish the action he or she is performing), Player 1 shouts, "What are you doing?" Player 2 responds with some action other than that which he or she is miming. Player 2 stops, and Player 1 performs this action. Repeat.

Notes: "What are you doing?" should be shouted loudly and clearly. It should sound more like a command than a question: WHATAREYOUDOING!
The purpose of this game is not to make a joke of the question ("So, uh, what are yooooooou doin'?"), nor is it to be funny. It is meant to train quick thought and action.

Action suggestions should be stated loudly, clearly, and directly. Do not say, "I'm... baking a cake." Skip directly to the verb. "Baking a cake!"

Use of sound and environment is highly encouraged.

Players may find it helpful to go down the alphabet when giving suggestions for actions. (Advancing aardvarks, Baking a cake, etc.)
