mc5 - Animal-Vegetable-Mineral-Abstract: The Pants Memorial Game

The chairperson selects an object/idea/whatever and announces whether it's animal, vegetable, mineral, and/or abstract. The others have to ask questions to figure out what it is. Whomever guesses the object correctly is given the chair for the next round; repeat ad nauseam.

Kim

Can we get on with it now, please?

[Riff] Rotter! "The content of a vegetarian's colon" was exactly the topic I was going to choose if I got into the chair. I would have set it as abstract since its animal, vegetable or mineral content could not be ascertained without removing it from the colon in question.

I do love sparking linguistic controversy.

Boolbar

Blimey! I thought that was a question leading towards the correct answer, not the answer itself. OK, I'll try and pick something simple that shouldn't lead to confusion (ha!) and get someone else in the chair. VEGETABLE

Riff

[Kim] I do apologise. Let me offer you, as a replacement, my backup idea: a chocolate-covered billiard ball. No one'll ever guess that.

Oops!

Riff

Oh, right, the game.

Is it commonly used as food?

Boolbar

[Riff] No. And it isn't a chocolate-covered billiard ball either.

Is it a single item made from wood that I can throw at my pc?

I'm only doing this because the server has been down all morning....STRESSED!!
