Vort Posted January 13, 2015 Author Report Posted January 13, 2015 'Xylophone' starts a sentence that begins with 'X'. Yes, it's another of those annoying, cheating fill-in-the-blank generic self-referential phrases that can be used for any letter. Again, if you can do better, please do so. Quote

The Folk Prophet Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 Out of alphabetical order. For shame. I will grant, I have always been a poor one for paying attention to, understanding, or much caring about instructions. To be fair, I did not read the title of the thread, and totally missed the A-Z thing, and it was not reiterated in the first post instructions. I have also never participated in any of the other A-Z games because the A-Z thing makes me uncomfortable. :) My bad. Quote
PolarVortex Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 I thought of xanthic, too, but the rules call for words that describe the words themselves and not specific instances of words on a page. By that logic, juxtaposed is also disqualified. However, there is a language called Xhosa, and I guessed that the Xhosa word for "the Xhosa language" would be Xhosa or something starting with X. I guessed wrong. "Xhosa" in Xhosa is "isiXhosa," and we already have an answer for "i". But nobody can argue that words have moisture, so I submit... xeric Vort 1 Quote

Vort Posted January 13, 2015 Author Report Posted January 13, 2015 If we can assign qualities like dryness to a word, can we assign qualities like distrustfulness? Xenophobic Quote
The Folk Prophet Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 Zesty. I dare anyone to prove that said word is not what it claims to be! Are we on Z? I swear, A-Z games give me the willies. Quote

The Folk Prophet Posted January 14, 2015 Report Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) Final post? * Come on now! That's ^ awesome, right? Self referential via question. :) Edited January 14, 2015 by The Folk Prophet Quote
Vort Posted January 14, 2015 Author Report Posted January 14, 2015 Final post? * Come on now! That's ^ awesome, right? Self referential via question. :) But it only works if it's true, which would be a crying shame. Quote
The Folk Prophet Posted January 15, 2015 Report Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) But it only works if it's true, which would be a crying shame. The question mark makes it work even if it isn't true. It's still a sentence that's asking if it's the final post, even if it's not the final post (which it's not). Edited January 15, 2015 by The Folk Prophet Vort 1 Quote
