I want to play a game...

[RangerXanatos]

Sorry, I tried it in my best John Kramer voice.

How about we play a multi-use item game. The rules are very simple. A person list some uses for a particular item, and then everyone else gets to guess at the clues as to which item the person had in mind. The person that correctly guesses the item, then list some uses for another particular item.

Example:

Put me on for a poncho.
Tear me into strands and I am cordage.
Open me wide and catch the rain.
Stuff me full and use me as a pillow.

I just gave clues for a trash bag.

This game is more about being with presented with problems and finding an item that fits with the solution. Granted there can be many solutions for a set of problems, but there is no wrong answer as long as it fits. The only catch is that the person who states the item the lister has in mind will get to choose the next item to guess.

It should be fun and increase our skills of problem solving.

Pull my insides out and you'll have eight fold of me.
I can carry a heavy burden, more than you weigh.
My colors can help you find dropped items.
Need a lashing? No problem!
My skills are even fashionable.

I am thinking Parachute ??

[RangerXanatos]

So close....

[your_comforting_company]

paracord or at least rope. knotwork etc

[RangerXanatos]

paracord or at least rope. knotwork etc

Paracord or parachute cord is the correct answer. It's your turn to start the next round

Once people get a better hang of the game, we can start using more in-depth uses and clues. We also don't have to keep thinking of new items, but more uses of those items.

I'm not good at making riddles or rhymes LOL.. gimme a few minutes!

[your_comforting_company]

But what is a great forest set before me?
Sit for a spell and rest your bones.
I'm a vicious friend, consuming and comforting.
We must work for each other,
Our touches are both warm.
Making clean and new.
Yet preserving.
...
(the answer is the last line)

Fire and smoke.

[your_comforting_company]

Fire is absolutely right!
your turn!

[crashdive123]

Fire is absolutely right!
your turn!

I don't want to bug you.
I'm a berry pickers friend.
I'm a fishermans friend.
I stand head and shoulders above the rest.

I'm thinking it's a Head net.

[Pocomoonskyeyes3]

I'll guess a hat.

[BENESSE]

A burqa?
(bee-keeper's head gear?)

[crashdive123]

Kevin got it, but all the answers fit the clues. Mosquito head net.

Momma said its time
Daddy showed me how
When he seen the results Grandpa frowned
I've done it standing up
I've done it laying down
I've done it in a foxhole
I've done it while driving to town

[Rick]

Telling Time for 20 Alex.

[klkak]

Even if you hadn't forgotten the question mark at the end of the sentence you are still WRONG! Mister who wears a wool thong.
