How is an iPod a mineral?

For that manner, how was the pen a Mineral?

They are made of minerals.
Hardly animals or vegetables are they??

So I can pick a salad because it's made of Veggies?

Not very specific.

you could guess salad if the unknown thing was vegetable.

Is it a metallic (or phallic, depending on your direction) cucumber?

*sigh* it is neither a cucumber nor phallic.

Nice to know.
Is it useful to humans?

Well, everything is useful to some degree.

Is it used in a kitchen?

is it ununoctium?

no
no

For those who don't understand the rules of animal vegetable mineral: animals and animal products go in animal, plants and plant products in vegetable, and pretty much everything else in mineral. (Theoretically one could therefore define plastic as animal, but that's many processed steps away from animal so it's stretching it a bit...)

Haha.
So, basically, anything goes.
Hardly surprising.

To be honest, if it was limited to actually just a pure veggie, a pure animal, and a pure mineral, it would have been in no time that everything would be used...

So this is a game of guess the object?

Yes. It may be better known to some of you as twenty questions or 20Q.

I know both, played both.
I'll restart one since DC's is dying.
Aha.
Ok, some way shape or form of it is a mineral.

Give him a chance.

Is it a keyboard?

Except all rounds have way exceeded 20 questions.

Well, you can take the harsh view of "you reached 20 questions, you lose!" or you can allow them more questions and merely laugh at their incompetence.
