Don’t spoil.
Is a “paintball” game (painting water with gouache and filling it with water guns) that is being prepared for a branch considered to be indecent? What are the boundaries of the prohibition in branch activities (tissue evening, egg evening, etc.)? We often wonder what is included in the prohibition and what is not.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Itay. I didn’t understand what is being destroyed there? The clothes? If you do things to play and have fun, there is no prohibition in that. Simply put, destruction is when it is done for no reason. Why would eating be a pleasure and not the pleasure of playing?! And we must discuss whether the pleasure is from the destruction itself and not from those who enjoy it, and incidentally, destruction is also being committed. Enjoying destruction in the slightest seems problematic to me and I think it is appropriate to avoid it (although I don’t know if it can actually be forbidden halakhically. It has to do with the law of tearing in anger and on death, where the tearing itself brings a calming benefit).
