Odd one out?
Which is the odd one out, and why? And what does it have in common with the rest?
Don't give it away if you've seen it before and already know the answer. You can still vote, though, because I'm sure nobody whould look to see what everyone else is voting for before casting their own..... and you could be wrong

I was gonna choose hijack, but decided canopy was just a noun. Crabcake sounds like it could be used as an adjective in an emergency.

Thread drift
Survival:
To help prioritize the necessities of life for any given situation, it's useful to remember that you can survive for about ... 1. ... 3 seconds without ammunition (in a combat situation). 2. ... 3 minutes without air (before losing useful consciousness). 3. ... 3 hours without shelter (in an extreme environment). 4. ... 3 days without water (before losing mobility). 5. ... 3 weeks without food (before wasting into incapacitation). The Rule of Threes can help you determine what makes the weight cut when applied in order against your present or anticipated situation. Last edited by sexobon; 04-03-2010 at 03:07 AM.

Oh wow, I thought it would be long solved by now. Apparently it was on NPR yesterday!
crabcake is not the correct answer.

I knew I'd heard it before, but couldn't remember exactly what it was, so I googled it. Wasn't going to ruin anyone else's fun, though.
