What is it?

[geewj]

It's the floor, but not the ground.

It's cool, but not rad.

It's borrowed, but not used.

It's different, but not contrary.


Guess what it is, but don't forget to mention what it is not.

[Mixfortune]

Allow passage to look at google for the answers it possesses.

[geewj]

But it is Google, but not Dogpile.

[HAYABUSA-FMW-]

Its a riddle, but not your mom.

That's right.

Plus it's funny, but not original.

Its a combination of four clues, but not Blue's.

Nope.

It's poop, but not crap.

[HAYABUSA-FMW-]

Its a rerun, but not a classic.

Nope. It's actually a classic, but not a rerun.

And it's green, but not brown.

It's a queen, but not royalty.

[VanHalen]

It's someone curious but not George.

[Mixfortune]

It's geewj, but not Prof_Frink, though nearly.

Nope.

It's Timmy, but not Timothy.

Yup

Nope.

It's irrelevant, but not insignificant.

[astuarlen]

It's rubber but not glue.
It bounces off me, but doesn't stick on you.

It plays a mean game of pool (or billiards, if you prefer) but sucks at darts.

It's quite good for tennis, but a lousy strategy for badminton.

That was good, but not great.

And all were right.

[astuarlen]

I may be a fool, but I'm no dunce.

[geewj]

Thus ending round 1.

Round 2:

It's high, but not tall.

It's fast, but not quick.

It's a noun, but not a verb.

[astuarlen]

Sounds like it's optional but not a choice.

[geewj]

You're right, but you're not left.

[HAYABUSA-FMW-]

Its The Count, but not Dracula.

[Mixfortune]

It's defeat, but not a loss.
It's anonymous, unknown, and mysterious, but it's no secret.

Oh, you are left. And right. But not down, it would seem.

[HAYABUSA-FMW-]

Its attention, but not paid.

[geewj]

For those that are knowledgeable and not confused, feel free to take it away. It gets pretty malleable.

I, too, am pooped and shall shortly be abed. I won't be participating further for now, but I will post in the daylight.

[Sef]

This is funny, but not comical.

[HUnewearl_Meira]

Synonym.

[UnderscoreX]

It's a battle, but not a war.

It's desired, but not wanted.

[HAYABUSA-FMW-]

It brought out the Sef, but nobody (buncle_wackob) noticed yet.

[DizzyDi]

its a bullet, but not a shot.

[astuarlen]

Okay, seems some of you are still on the first one...? Or, well, if you're gonna start a new rule, please say something to that effect.

Anywho, I am a-startin' anew, so pay attention:

It's muscular but not well-built,
risky but not perilous,
dependable but not reliable.

[Mixfortune]

It's simple, but not easily doable.

<font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Mixfortune on 2007-03-18 16:26 ]</font>

Work harder, but don't over evaluate.

I'd warn, but you're cautious.

[astuarlen]

Mix and geewj are both winners, but you weren't victorious.

Someone else have one?

[geewj]

Round 4:

I have one, but not two

It's renewed, not traditional.

And it's fake, not real.

[astuarlen]

I bet it's baked but not grilled, sauteed, cooked, broiled, poached, nor toasted.

It sounds super but not fabulous, elite but not leet.

And finally, mobile but not portable.

[HAYABUSA-FMW-]

Its Tact, but not a catboymangirl hermaphrodite.

Its a message board, but not a trash can.

Its spam, but not randomness.

PSU General

[astuarlen]

It's not PSU General, but it is Site Related.

[Mixfortune]

geewj took my idea, so more power to him.

That's what happens when you're late and not available.

Though I trust the veracity of that data, it's neither a reason nor an excuse.

[Mixfortune]

I like to focus on positives, rather than beat around the bush.

[astuarlen]

Wow, nice job, Mix. Anybody care if I begin a new one? Here it comes...

For breakfast, I like waffles but not pancakes. I'd rather have my eggs scrambled than poached, and I eschew both coffee and tea, instead gulping milk. But if I must have that first drink, I'll sip it black--no cream please.

[Mixfortune]

Actually looking back on it, "focus on a positive" may have been better for the ability to carry onto the entirety of the sentence.

In any case, I must admit that attempting to decipher at length your newest round has left me with nothing that I can find, easily or with obscurity.

[astuarlen]

Hmm, I don't think I made any mistakes. S' have an extra helping of hints:

The best lunch is a ham sandwich; I hate roast beef and cheese. Additionally, serve up some slaw (hold the cole), but no fries for me (chips are acceptable). A simple dish is better than a fancy meal.

[Mixfortune]

It sounds inexpensive but not free
In that case, I'll take seven; nine sounds like more than I could handle.

[astuarlen]

Matter of fact, that's correct.

[Mixfortune]

Cool, glad it's legitimate and not precise.
Messing with long vowel sounds, and not making mistakes is no joke.


For those who may need a catchup, here's a short review.

Round 1 was a collection of double letters.
Round 2 made effective, noting letters that follow each other in the alphabet.
Round 3 was "not" featuring double vowels coupled together
Round 4 was given as alternating patterns of vowel and consonant
Round 5, ast's current, is explained high above.


Now, if I may, my own attempt at a small round.


It's a screw but not a screwdriver
An orange but not a tangerine
All was forgiven but not forgotten
It's of importance but not valuable

[astuarlen]

Now, I may be wrong and not comprehending. This early in the day, I'm up but not fully awake or capable of summoning complete cognitive functions.

[DizzyDi]

I'm hungry, but not starving.
My mouth is watering, but not drooling

[astuarlen]

Methinks Dizzy is trying but not succeeding.

[Mixfortune]

Absolutely, but don't abandon it.
These are hopes, and not pursuits nor endeavors

Let's have a new rule, then. Follow me

to a land that is foreign but not exotic,
where talking animals are common but not mundane,
and the people are spiritual yet not religious.

[Bot-Bot]

That's cheese.

Borat DVD extra joke
