Title: Odd One Out
Post by: Kasran on February 28, 2009, 02:15:51
w00t, first forum game!

So.
I post a list of three or more items. Then the next three people to post pick an item and give a short explanation of why they think that item is unique from the others. (Note that two or more people can pick the same item, as long as they give different explanations as to why they think that item is different from the others.) I then pick the person whose explanation I like the best, and that person posts a list. Repeat.
For example:

DragonMC: red turquoise blue
minmay: Red isn't remotely close to the other two.
Firecat: Red has the shortest number of letters.             (explanations that involve the spelling, number of letters, etc. are not forbidden but are frowned upon)
Paula: Turquoise is one of the names Armand (http://djdaiku.bloviate.net) has used for his music.

Of course, I would pick Paula's answer because I love Armand's music. XD
So it's kinda like Apples to Apples: you appeal to the judge.

My list:
10,000,000,000
27,704,267,971
128

Comparing that with the other numbers is like comparing NSF with 4chan.

Crackers were never in loaves.

Bread is neither crispy nor crunchy.
Title: Re: Odd One Out

crackers. Bread and Toast go together. the odd one here is obviously crackers.

All right.

Tacos, Burritos, Taquitos

Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: Kasran on March 01, 2009, 16:16:32
Burritos are neither tacos nor little tacos. :P
Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: TheRealTJ on March 01, 2009, 16:33:01
Tacos are the only ones that are supposed to contain lettuce.

Burritos and taquitos with lettuce are just plain wrong.
Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: Gorfinhofin on March 01, 2009, 19:03:24
DMC: I beg to differ. Burritos are pretty much the same thing as soft tacos.

TheRealTJ: All the burritos I've seen have had lettuce :P2

Oh, okay.

Uh...
Tacos are the only ones whose shells you can break into chips? :P
Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: Mr. Monkey on March 01, 2009, 19:36:44
Hard tacos, right?  Soft tacos are more burritoish.

Also, I have been able to make taquito-shell chips.  Maybe my taquito was odd, though.  :P

That's the U.S. burrito, but
Quote from: Wiki
Authentic Mexican burritos are usually small and thin, with flour tortillas containing only one or two ingredients: some form of meat, potatoes, beans, asadero cheese, chile rajas, or chile relleno
Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: Gorfinhofin on March 01, 2009, 21:47:12
But they are supposed to have lettuce in the US. It's too many people that like lettuce on their burritos to ignore.

EDIT: Proofish :D
Tacos and buritos are nothing alike, actually. Burritos are rolled, mostly flour tortilla, and often larger. Tacos are often hard shelled, seldom
rolled, mostly corn tortilla, and usually smaller.
A taquito is similar to a taco, because it is normally hard shelled and can be corn tortilla. But, it is also similar to a burrito because it is rolled,
and sometimes flour tortilla.
 
So, since the taquito belongs within both categories, it just as easily belongs in neither, because it would be continuously pulled to either
side. Therefore, the taquito is the odd one out. :)

OTHER ANSWER.
In the song, "Taco flavored kisses" in an episode of Southpark, taquito is not mentioned, but tacos and burritos are.  :nuts:
Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: Gorfinhofin on March 02, 2009, 01:33:43
Okay, let's just say burritos may or may not be tacos. History tells us they are tacos, but science tells us they are not. Let's just leave it alone, okay? XD

Uh, so anyway I've got DMC's chip answer and Dj Gopher's Southpark one. One more answer to go.
Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: TheRealTJ on March 02, 2009, 01:46:57
Fine.

Taquitos, because you can't put salsa in them.
Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: Gorfinhofin on March 02, 2009, 01:49:53
OKAY! That was an ordeal.

I pick TheRealTJ's because I like salsa :P
Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: TheRealTJ on March 02, 2009, 02:36:11
Yay :3

Okay, lemme think:
Iron Man, Batman, and The Punisher.
Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: HaPK on March 02, 2009, 03:07:00
Batman, because it's the only one from DC comics
Title: Re: Odd One Out

The punisher can't fly. :)

He means the Punisher can't travel through the air at all.

Anyway, Iron Man has the best defenses.
Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: TheRealTJ on March 06, 2009, 17:01:34
I'm going to go with Dj Gopher, because The Punisher still remains just as cool as the others without any way to air travel.

1. Batman Begins is not real Batman, as far as I'm concerned.
2. Fourth entry disqualified.

He doesn't fly, he glides.

Quote from: Kasran on March 02, 2009, 13:46:39

He meant that the punisher cant fly and I said batman cant fly either so that doesn't make the punisher the odd one out.

"As far as I'm concerned" essentially means "in my opinion". So stop acting smart all the time.

...Oh wait. I was thinking of Batman Beyond.
My bad. XD

Continue with the game as if that didn't happen!

You cant come up with an answer for your own thing. Then you can just select yourself as a winner and never let anyone else play. <_<
Besides, the term "computer" refers to anything with a CPU, (I think) so even a small calculator is a computer.

Title: Re: Odd One Out

I'll just go ahead and steal the game here, since victor12 apparently isn't interested in playing, or at least not following any rules.

So here we go...

Tiger, Snail, or Horse?

Horse I say, as it is an animal that had a shoe turn into a game.  (horseshoes anyone?)
Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: Razzorman on April 27, 2009, 22:17:47
I think I'll go with NES for this one, because his answer was the most original and unexpected.
Its your turn NES. :D
Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: NESgamer190 on April 30, 2009, 20:58:38
All righty then...  I can't believe that my horseshoe idea won.  XD

This is a tough one to pull, but here goes...

Handstand, lifting the world, or being lifted by the world?
(By and far, one of my worst ideas yet.)
Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: Kasran on May 01, 2009, 18:08:37
Only handstands are humanly possible.

Being lifted by the world is the only one that doesn't really exist. (Atlas holding the Earth on his shoulders)
Title: Re: Odd One Out
Post by: Razzorman on May 11, 2009, 17:30:24
Actually, Atlas is holding the heavens on his shoulders, but whatever.

Hmm... Doing a handstand can be seen as lifting the world if you look at it upside down, so my answer has got to be being lifted by the world, because it makes no sense in this context.

Post by: NESgamer190 on May 11, 2009, 21:27:02
Okay...  that's three.  I am actually astonished nobody was a musclehead to choose to lift the world, and I think Razzorman has won with the works of creativity, and other such mechanical sprocketry...  *short circuits*

Post by: Salmoneous on July 06, 2009, 17:27:34
Ok, since its been a while I do a new.

Uranium

Molybdenum

Dubnium

Molybdenum, as it is the only stable of the three.
