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.

[snorgle] Strictly, yes. And Yes.

Breadmaster

Would all adults recognise this concept?

[snorgle] Yes, a bit. It's not a hard and fast rule. But your name is less silly than, say, "DrQu+xum", "I Say! Porter!" or indeed my own. What is the origin of "Snorgle"? Or do I not want to know?

Kim

[Breadmaster] Almost certainly not all adults. P.S. Wan't to know why I call myself Kim?

Chalky

Is it connected with the arts?

Fridge

OK, why do u call yourself kim?

LotUS

Is it a scientific concept?

I too would be interested to hear the origins of 'snorgle'

Breadmaster

Would all of us recognise this concept?

This is all getting very intriguing, isn't it?

snorgle

Would all children recognise it?

Snorgling is a noise my dog makes - it sounds like a snore and a gargle - usually when he wants some food or attention. It's quiet but effective at getting your attention, although it can be quite annoying! (I also saw the name in a comic book letters page once, and fancied it...)
