Tubes

Tubes are a recurring motif in group life, often manifesting themselves in the most unlikely of situations.
Tube Caricature
This is technique often relied on by Jeremy in depicting Drawing Game artwork. By his own admission, Jeremy cannot draw perspective, so he had developed a style similar to that of pre-Renaissance artists, which implies but does not directly depict distance between figures. Perhaps the most famous example of this is his depiction of people as cylindrical tubes, which while in part conveying the implied perspective, greatly contributes to the Jeremy factor, known for inalterably skewing prompts traveling through the Drawing Game cycle.
Tube at the Park
Another renowned instance of tubing occurred in the discovery of a large plasticine tunnel suspended about four feet high in the playground at the Park by Terry's.
Activities in and around the tube include:
- Cramming as many people inside as possible
- Trying to walk across it
- Putting one's arms and legs through the many window holes so that it looks like an anthropomorphized tube
- Discussing recent events
- Homoeroticism
