      When playing hot potato, you’re not supposed to use a potato that’s actually hot. Usually not even an actual potato.

      Had a teacher in high school that was an engineer prior. Recounted stories of playing hot potato with ultra-capacitors that had been wrapped in masking tape until it was vaguely ball like. Then charge it and go till someone caught it wrong.
