Rocky Horror P&P2
General non-specific actions:
- Darcy Moments: Before each tape, each participant must relate her
favorite Darcy moment. When it comes, we will stop the tape for everyone
to sigh and drool.

makes us want to smack her, we clap our hands together and yell "SLAP!"

for the Bennet girls dowries (see old BB thread "Slapping Miss Bingley")
- Use coconuts or other horsey sounds whenever there are horses galloping.
