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 particular to humans?
That's it for tonight. Unless I change my mind.
Is it the unbearable lightness of Being?
Is it a human concept?
Standard opening
[Duj] Yes
[Raak] Curiously enough, that is one of my favourite phrases and have longed to slip it into one of these games. Much as I'd love to say 'yes', in this instance, alas No
[Software] I suppose it must be [see Duj reply]
Is it descriptive of an action?
Is it an emotion?
Is it a religion?
My appologies again
Is it a phrase or expression?
Is it easier than the last one?
[Snodgrass] Sort of, yes
[Gusset] No
[all] No ... hey forget it - I, too, am less than perfect :-)
[Inkspot] In a manner of speaking, yes it is
[Gusset] Indubitably
Getting your leg over?
Hung like a horse?
Is it related to sex?
A leap of faith?
Would it make someone happy? :-)
Is it said/used in everyday conversation?
Does it contain numbers.
?
*rushing back from a meeting...*
[Inkspot] Er ... no
[Bigsmith] Nope
[all] one might think so in view of the previous two questions - and as a matter of fact it *could* be :-)
[Raak] No - but you're moving in the right direction -ish
[Software] NO! good question
[Gusset] Yes
[Kim] It *might* contain numbers but don't let that mislead you
Is it conected with the church?
[all] Not specifically
Can it be percieved by any of the senses?
is it a sinlge word?
single word, even
Curse you dyslexia! You win again!
A curse?
Swearing?
A magic spell?
[Inkspot] It can be perceived by all of the senses
[all] Yes - with the addition of a definite or indefinite article
[Software] Not really
[Gusset] Noo-o-o - but swearing might be applicable afterwards :-)
[Raak] No
Pain?
[Gusset] No
Life?
The universe?
A nightmare?
[Gusset] No
[Raak] nah
... although true pessimists might say that both were this [that was a BIG CLUE].

on spotting a Raak simulpost ... not a nightmare.

It?
Everything?
Would it make someone unhappy?
[Inkspot] No to both
[Raak] The opposite to that question was asked a while back :-) Your answer is YES, it might make someone unhappy, but not necessarily deeply unhappy.
Suffering?
Disappointment?
Pointless?
Being dumped?
[Chalky] Just checking.
[Gusset, Software] One might suffer and be disappointed as a result but the answer is more the 'action' rather than the consequence.
[all] erm .. no
[Raak] No, but being dumped may fall into this category - a more generic word is needed.
Losing?
Is it something most people have probably experienced?
[all] No - but close
[Breadmaster] Absolutely.
Failure?
Rejection?
Missing last orders?
The blues?
Antidisestablishmentarianism?
[all] not quite
[Software] No
[B'smith] No & No
[Gusset] No

CLUE: 'all' did this in the last game :-)

Mistake?
Fuck up?
WELL DONE!! [Software] gets to the post first.
[all] f*cks up :-) sorry
Well I never!!
**Tries to hide behind hands with embarrassment.** Now let me see...thinks :-)

I know! Mineral with Animal connections.

The statue of Greyfriars Bobby in Edinburgh?
A dog lead?

Is it larger than a ballcock?
Is it smaller than a phonebox?
That was quick!
snorgs: No.
all: No
GL: Yes, partly.
BS: Perhaps.
Simpost
all: Yes
Is it decorative?
Does it *look* like an animal?
Would I use it *on* an animal
Is the Animal connection human?
