Animal-Vegetable-Mineral-Abstract: The Pants Memorial Game
help
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.

Is it a wristwatch?
As opposed to a pocket-watch or some other type.
Is it a pocket-watch?
As opposed to a wristwatch or some other type ;)
[Btd] No.
[Riff] Yes.
[barbacoa] No.

The sharks are circling around the mystery object...

A hint: this type of wristwatch is definitely not valuable, made of a specific metal, or a Rolex Cosmograph Daytona.

A timex?
[Riff] Actually, I don't know who makes these. One thing is certain, the maker's name does not appear on them.
Was Bob the dog close in guessing it as a "character" watch?
Have you got one?
[Z.K.] No.
[Btd] No.

Hint: it is not a Rolex.

Is it a *fake* Rolex?
It is indeed a fake Rolex.
aaaaaaaargh!
ooh! popped up randomly and guessed the answer right! goodness me! Okay. Um...give me a few minutes while I think of something!
Wahey!
Okay. The next object is VEGETABLE.
Edible?
Standard opening.
[BtD] Technically, yes, but I don't know anyone who would.
Is it a manufactured object?
Hate having to answer vaguely!
[Raak] No. If it was (in this case) I'd have to call it mineral.
Coal?
Ooh
[BtD] No.
Oil (the stuff pumped out of the ground)?
Still vegetable
[Raak] No. I thought oil was made of long-dead sea creatures that had been crushed and whatnot?
Is it something made from a vegetable?
[Beth] No.
Is wood involved?
Isn't oil made of fossilised vegetable matter, like coal? Particularly squishy vegetable matter, maybe...
Lol at squishy
[Breadmaster] Yes. I don't know about the composition of oil, to be honest. But let's just say for now, definitively, it is not oil.
Is it something fashioned (ie manufactured, to go back to Raak's first question) from vegetable matter?
Eg: Vegemite.
Is it wood from a particular tree?
Is it hard?
[Kim] No.
[Inkspot] Yes....mostly (audience muttering excitedly)
[rab] Hard or solid?
A cricket bat?
[Riff] No.
I'm worried my answer to Inkspot's question might be a bit misleading...
A Christmas tree ?
'Twas the first day of advent, and all through the house...

Yes! It is indeed A Christmas Tree. Not very challenging then, but worth a go!
Over to Inkspot!
*peels off the label from computer reminding self of own answer :)*
Cheers and wild clapping as Inkspot flicks the switch on the lights of the Christmas Tree.
lucky guess
ZK]Your clues at the end about a tree were just enough to tip the balance.

...and the next one please, Vegetable *gasps from the audience*

Sprouts?
Is this vegatable associated with Christmas dinner?
Is it edible?
Whether or not that would preclude its being sprouts, I won't comment.
Is it native to the UK?
and we're off...
[Bob the dog]No
[Kim] No
Bread Master [No] But this is misleading as the 'whatever it is', is not meant to be eaten but eating it would do you no harm, "Edible-Something fit to be eaten" def Dictionary .com
[Software]No
A banana skin?
Orange peel?
[Raak] No
[Kim] No
Would it be classed as a fruit?
[Software] No
Is it customarily eaten by some animal?
Is it processed an any way?
[Raak]No
[Bob the dog] Yes
