Odd one out!

Postby mrswdk on Wed Jan 15, 2014 2:33 pm

Pretty simple. Someone lists 4 things, of which 3 have something in common and one is the odd one out.

To win, someone must correctly guess the odd one out and explain what links the other 3.

I'll start:

OJ Simpson
Leo Frank
George Zimmerman
Lizzie Borden

Geddit?

The one you probably mean is Leo Frank, since he is the only one found not guilty after his death.
But Lizzie Borden is also an odd one out being the only female.

Yeah, meant Leo Frank. The other three went free even though they were guilty, whereas he was found guilty even though he was innocent. Your turn if you want it.

I'd agree with you if it weren't for John Travolta.

I think I got it, took me some time to figure it our though:

Spongebob is the odd one out: swordfish, x wing and triplet are sudoku solving techniques.
Nice one degaston!

Very good! For the record, it's called naked triplets (or sometimes triples), so the nudity was not simply gratuitous. You would have gotten bonus points for guessing that Spongebob was the only one made by me. :)

Your turn.

Once I got the video reference, the rest just clicked after a moment. I'll get a new one up later tonight.

And tough for me to get the answer right.
I see: a kiss, straight (pool), a full house and one pair, so all would be combinations in poker and the first one is not. However the first picture can be interpretated as one pair also.... I think I am close but am I right?!

It's funny what other people see that you hadn't expected. I had actually intended that the first couple was straight (as in not gay), and the dogs was a little joke/hint because they sometimes play poker, but not right now. I'd say your interpretation is valid, too.

Your turn.

Hmmm...
Fargo, Rushmore, Jurassic Park, The French Connection?
North Dakota, South Dakota, South Dakota/Illinois, California?
Only one of them surrenders? :)

I'll have to think about it later unless someone else gets it first.

You are close, but not spot on yet.

I can't agree with that I'm afraid, that would be strange right? It's not the answer I meant.
Second pic is not just a rock, those colours are an important clue.
And: it's not just a T-rex...
