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.

Darren

Rosie - CORRECT.

Rosie got it! I thought it would take you longer! So anyway, Rosie is now in the chair for the next game.

Bob the dog

Applause

Well done Rosie!

gil

I have one in mind... Start asking....

It's Animal, Vegetable, Mineral, any combination thereof, or Abstract by itself. The answer is two words - the indefinite article and a noun.

gil

Oops... sorry, Rosie, I hadn't realised the winner gets to go. I withdraw.

snorgle

Awww! gil! You had a special one all thought up!

Mornington Chairs

[Darren] What's the unclear relationship between musical chairs and Mornington Crescent?

Inkspot

Musical Mornington

Raak] Perhaps Darren is unaware of the last time Musical Mornington Chairs was played, back in the late 1970's, when it was played by some very enthusiatic Chelsea football supporters on there way back from another local London village derby.
Unfortunately the most important part of the ie getting rid of a seat at each station was miss interpereted by the London Transport Police as wanton vandalism.
As a result, this unfortunate event is usually glossed over and not normally discussed in polite company.
