And oxygen is the only with with an "x" in it. The only logical way to look at a quiz like this is that the three items share a characteristic in common, instead of those three commonly NOT sharing a characteristic. Of penguins, hens, humans, and ducks, you could say that three don't live on Antarctica. The logical answer is clearly human, though.

I'm too lazy to do the leg work on this, and not smart enough to know the answer... but are Nile, Thames and Yangtze not names derived from other languages for the word "river"?

That was the assumption that made me select Amazon.

Not sure about the others, but Yangtze means 'long river'.
bostjan

Level 73
Sep 27, 2021
I had to do a bit of psychology to choose the answer on this one. The Nile was the only river that doesn't flow west to east, The Amazon is the only river that doesn't flow through a city of over 5 million people, and the only river mostly south of the equator. The Thames is the only river on an island. I chose the Thames mainly because it's puny in size compared to the others, which was sort of the correct line of thinking, but I feel that's also the weakest way to set it apart. I was just really unsure of my answer.

Got it all right, but almost missed the first question. My first thought was that horses are the only ones you don't usually eat, but decided that 4 legs was more important in the end.

While it's taboo in places the US and UK, horse meat is eaten in many places in Asia, Europe and the Americas (e.g. Chile, Quebec, Switzerland, etc etc etc). In Japan it's nicknamed sakuraniku because of its colour, and usually served as either sashimi or yakiniku (barbecue).

The question isn't "which one is special," it's "which doesn't match the unifying characteristics of the other 3." I think that "not an island country" or "major river that has tributaries" is a little bit more obscure of a unifying factor than "country in Asia" or "longest on continent."

Except that 95% of people got it right, so that seems pretty obvious. When it comes to being able to ride a horse, that is logically more of a characteristic of horses--I think the quiz is looking more for notable traits about the three in question. I doubt Wikipedia goes over how unsuitable for riding pigs, sheep, and ducks are. I feel like it'd be nearly impossible to make a quiz like this and have literally only one logically possible answer. But it's pretty obvious what the best logical answer is for that question.

@jmellor13 "The only one" is never the criteria in an odd-one-out quiz, otherwise any of them could be the answer! It's always something 3 of them of them have in common (and no things they aren't doesn't count, it has to be something all 3 are) and then the odd one out doesn't fit the rule.

Here's a helpful strategy: try for find the most-exclusive group that any three of the options can fit into, then choose the option that is left over. This helps avoid wrong answers like:"Neon, because it's the only noble gas"Avoided because that would mean the other three's group is "things that are not noble gases," which is not very exclusive at all."Sleepless in Seattle, because the other three were nominated for Best Picture"Avoided because "Tom Hanks movies" is more exclusive than "Best Picture nominees" (~50 vs ~560)This takes care of the vast majority of alternative answers being offered here.

6. Astronomy

I was right by technicality, but because I didn't select Pluto marked it as incorrect. I chose Uranus because it is the only planet listed that was not named after a Roman god.

I was right, Quiz said I was wrong.

Suggestion, replace Uranus with another planet name or mark Uranus as a correct answer.

if you see a list of planets and one that is famously not a planet, and then you don't choose that one, it's your own fault.

No it isnt actually, Ouranus is a Greek God, not a Roman one (Mars, venus etc are Roman) He was the personification of the sky/the heavens and partner of Gaia the personification of earth, together they had the titans (amongst others) and Zeus is the son of one of the titans (Kronos which is Saturn). Jupiter is the Roman version of Zeus. So Uranus is basicly Jupiter's granddad.

Movies is a trick question.

3 of them won Oscar for best picture; Sleepless in Seattle didn't.

3 of them star Tom Hanks; Titanic doesn't.

Techincally 2 correct answers.

I think there is a problem with question 13. The answer is clearly Wyoming because it's the only place that doesn't exist, while the other three do.

I missed #8 and #15.

I kind of agree with user qcumber. Although Titanic is the only one not starring Tom Hanks, "Saving Private Ryan" is the only one that isn't a Romance of some sort. I was aware of both of these before I answered. I chose the "wrong" uncommonality. Oh well.

By the way you have two astronomy questions even though you should have one astronomy question and one astrology question.

I thought you might want to know so that you can fix it.
