Default Changing seats

It's a nice change for students to get up out of their seats and sit down again next to someone new. The usual one that teachers use is to get the students to arrange themselves in order of their birthdays, from January the 1st through to December 31st. I tried a variation on this with some adult students. I asked them to write down five words for states of drunkenness. Then to select one of those words that they think the others might not have thought of. Then they order themsleves in order of sobriety. A fun exercise, though not appropriate in certain parts of the world.
