Something in Common Game

Figure out what the three physical items in the list have in common. Name another item that has that same thing in common as the other three and state what that common trait is. For example, here are three items:

fire truck, cherry, blood

One possible answer could be:

tomato - They can all be found in the color red


You then come up with your own list of items that have something in common and list three of them as the next entry.

The Rules: The things and their common trait should be something that most people, without any special knowledge should figure out. No listing of things you received one Christmas, objects in a particular Harry Potter book, things you see on your drive to work, etc. The common trait does not have to match the common trait used by the person creating the entry.

I'll start off with ...

piano, marionette, tennis racket

Whoops. That was supposed to be a reminder to me for my next entry and not actually get posted as-is. The forums keep a draft copy reply of things you write but don't click the Post Reply button. I had thought I did not click the button. So much for using parts of an umbrella as an entry.

shaken. stirred, dry, dirty
martinis

mouse, launch, brake

Good morning, Mark. Did you enter the first three words of your last answer before your first morning cup of coffee?

OOOppps!!

Actually, I was going for days of the week named for gods, but yours fit anyway. I believe all but Sunday and Monday were.

All I'm coming up with, at the moment, for your words is hill, but I don't think that's right. I'll have to ponder on this one, if someone else doesn't figure it out first ...

Red, Black, Baltic, Mediterranean

Hello mithilla, and welcome to the game.

Please see my first post in this game that explains how it is played.

At this point, you would need to figure out what the following three things have in common and provide a fourth thing that shares that common trait.

Robbie, Jinx, Atom
