Dec 12, 2012 We decided to try out a game we called 'tape poker', where the rules are as simple as this: The loser of each round has to tape a part of their body.

A blank expression is a facial expression characterized by neutral positioning of the facial features, implying a lack of strong emotion. It may be caused by a lack of emotion, depression, boredom or slight confusion, such as when someone refers to something which the listener does not understand. A deliberately-induced blank expression meant to conceal one's emotions is also known as a poker face, referring to the common practice of maintaining one's composure when playing the card gamepoker.[1][2]
The term poker face was used outside the game of poker by American sportswriters in the 1920s to describe a competitor who appeared unaffected by stressful situations (an important skill when playing poker for money, to avoid giving an opponent any tells about one's hand).[3] It is similarly used with reference to marketers and salespeople during business negotiations.[4]
