You probably used to see your life as a bubble of normality, where your everyday habits, thoughts, actions and beliefs were completely conventional and standard. And then your life and state of mind probably underwent an identity crisis when you first read the answers to one of the many Facebook ‘Yes or No?’ questions online. How can it be that so many people can’t even fathom doing things the way you do them, and vice versa?

Well, grab a group of friends and prepare to lose them just as quickly, as you play the Embrace Brisbane edition of “Yes or No?”. Get ready to compare, discuss and find out who is truly the weirdest of the group. If you can’t figure it out, the chances are it’s probably you.
