Set your brains in motion

[Veronica, What the neck!?]

Okay, get ready to stretch your brains a bit. Here is what you have to do: Find one thing that relates two things that are as completely unrelated as possible (more unrelated than opposites, because opposites are actually about the same thing. inhale and exhale use your lungs. chair and floor are a place to sit. etc.)


But here's the trick: It cannot be something really vague that they have in common (ie- they are good, or they are bad)

I'll supply the first pair: a lemon and a pair of seven year old girls.

[Sella, ov vey! i haven't checked this group in months. ><]

Um, I don't get it. Are we supposed to guess why they relate to each other or something...?

[Veronica, What the neck!?]

No, you are supposed to figure out a way in which they relate. There is no one right answer. The point is to get you to think. And once you come up with a way that they are related, then you think of two new completely unrelated things and post them for the next person to figure out.

[Ashley]

So... like 'the girls are eating the lemon' is the answer to the first pair?

[Sella, ov vey! i haven't checked this group in months. ><]

Oh, I get it! So, here's for Roni's: seven girls having a playdate, using lemons to make lemonade and selling them in front of their house.

Now here's my two things: Chunky peanut butter and a CD case.

((Did I do this right?))

A girls little brother is playing a prank and putting chunky peaunut butter in her CD case

a bottle of water and a chocolate bar.

[Sella, ov vey! i haven't checked this group in months. ><]

Someone got a chocolate bar, and they also bought a bottle of water, but then when they were drinking water, the bottle tipped and the water spilled all over the chocolate bar, ruining it. MWA HA HA!!

[Sella, ov vey! i haven't checked this group in months. ><]

A marker and a gram cracker.

[Riley]

I was so broke that I just gave my parents a gram cracker and a marker for Christmas.

Video Camera and a matchbox car!

[Veronica, What the neck!?]

No, not something one does to another. That isn't what I mean. I mean something they have in common.

For instance, a video and a matchbox car are alike because they are box shaped and have some sort of wheel (wheels of tape that things are recorded onto inside a video camera, actual wheel on a matchbox car).

A coffee table and a pine needle.

[Riley]

Oh, okay. Sorry.

A coffee table could be made out of a pine tree, which pine needles grow on.

(aka, they both come from trees. And you didn't post a new one.)

[Riley]

(sorry again! Wow, I just keep slipping up!)

Grammar and a piano.

[Veronica, What the neck!?]

(No, you haven't done anything wrong. Half the time I forget to post something new as well, and everybody else was mistaken as to what we were to do as well.)

Both require much practice that many students do not want to do.

A picture frame and a stereo.

[Riley]

They both contain things. Wow, that was weak. XD

[Val]

Both can end up in my bathroom.
