What ARE birds? - Schazer - 03-25-2016
We've been playing this on IRC for the past half hour or so - you may ask me "Are x birds?" to determine what manner of beast, exactly, birds are.
I will answer either that:
-"x are birds"
-"x are not birds", or
-"not all x'es", indicating that some but not all x'es are birds.
Using only this information, the first person to correctly explain what are birds (with the phrase "birds are things which ***") wins, and gets to redefine what birds are for the next round.
I'll give you a hint to start with!
-Not all birds are birds.
-Rhinos are not birds.
