We started in a circle with a giant Pinky Pie in the middle. In a circle everyone gave an example of how they make other people happy and how other people make them happy. When a person finished we pushed ballons around. When the circle finished we sang the Pinky Pie song, while putting the corresponding video with text with a projector on the wall. After we finished singing, the giant Pinky Pie was given as a Christmas gift to a 4-year old girl in attendence who was the kid of a couple that participated.

We might have violated two of the 10 commandments (You shall have no other gods before me/You shall not have any false idols) with it.

Yes, you did, but PLEASE SEND HELP I'M DYING OF LAUGHTER.

Well, several days have passed, and so at last has the impulse to go put the Smile Song on repeat on YouTube.
