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.

Sorry software..missed you out from the above answers but it is not a suggestion.

Inkspot. Sharks may do this, I am no expert.

So sorry Chalky darling. It could be argued that a sense of humour is part of this, but it isn't the answer.

Is it something the two people involved would enjoy?
Is it, in fact, the physical act of lovemaking?
Is it cutting hair?

BM, no.
ZK, I guess they do but I am not entirely sure if they do this.

Simply 'talking'?
Socializing?
