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.

Brunel?
[Inkspot] Yes
[Raak] Yes
What an anti-climax!

Ok, the next is MINERAL, with ANIMAL and VEGETABLE connections.

A stainless steel kitchen knife?
A little bit knee trembling foreplay then straight down business.
Is it made of metal?
Sorry it was an anti-climax, I hadn't expected to be setting one so soon
[Inkspot] No.
[GL] You wouldn't really think of it as something metal, but metal is involved.
If not metal would it be thought of as being made of plastic?
Would I (or anyone else living in the country) find it on a farm?
Did it exist before 1800?
[Inkspot] Not really, although plastic is undoubtedly also present.
[GL] It would be a very unusual farm that had one of these.
[Brendan] No.
Do the animal and vegetable live on the mineral?
Is it man made?
Is it electrically powered?
Is it meant to be moved around?
[Gusset Login] I suspect Raak meant it was an anticlimax to hit upon the answer so rapidly and unexpectedly, rather than that the answer itself was anticlimactic.
Is the animal connection, human?
[BM] I understand what Raak meant and if I had honestly thought I'd win, I would have thought of something harder to guess.
[Kim] Tricky one...let's say that the animal is alive and the vegetable isn't.
[GL] Yes.
[Inkspot] Yes.
[Bm] No.
[GL] Yes.
[Bm, GL] Indeed, no criticism intended.
[Kim] ...and the mineral is pretty much all around them.
Is it a building of some sort?
Is it smaller than a telephone kiosk?
[GL] Yes, hence...
[Inkspot] No.
Is it a Florist?
OK silly question, but worth a shot
M o r n i n g t o n C r e s c e n t ?
[Chalky] what's the vegtable connetion to MC?
[GL] No, but you're thinking on the right lines.
[Chalky] No.
A greengrocer's?
[Bm] No, not quite that close to the right line.
Is the vegetable wood?
Is it a particular retailer? eg Tesco
[Bm] There might well be some, but that's not the main vegetable component.
[Inkspot] No.
Is the vegatable clothes?
s/vegatable/vegetable!
[Dujon] No.
A bakers?
Is it a well-known place [a one-off]?
[Inkspot] No.
[Chalky] Not a one-off. The sort of thing it is is well-known.
Would it be found on the High Street?
Newsagent?
Is the building a shop?
[Chalky] Yes.
[Inkspot] No.
[Brendan] Yes.
Health food shop?
A fast-food joint?
