Let's play the dismantling concepts game!

edited November 2010 in General Banter
Rules:

The first person defines a concept:

example: The concept of a chair is a four legged, stable, raised surface used to sit on.

Then, another person must rebut the concept:
A beanbag chair does not have four legs, is not stable. Therefore this concept is false.

Then another person must try to redefine the concept (not the first person, but it can be the second person):

So a chair is a raised surface used to sit on.

Then another person can try to rebut it (it can't be the same person):

A stool is a raised surface used to sit on, and it is not a chair.

The ultimate goal is to defeat the concept.

So starting off the real game!

Concept: A human is any living or extinct creature that is of the family Hominidae characterized by superior intelligence, articulate speech, and erect carriage.

    2nd Revised Version of the Concept: A human being is a member of the family Hominidae, which species is generally characterized by superior intelligence, articulate speech, and erect carriage.
