Additional info, added Monday July 6 2009, 10:09 am: My next clue i got was it is also advertised on the internet. well i know its not a car because she mentioned her cat was interested in it, and her cat stays inside.
and a laptop sounds like a good idea, but the can only use it once... well that could be like you could use it until you break it... but my aunts dont have 2 laptops, they have one, and unless they both got one and dont use them while im there...
littlemisschatterbox answered Tuesday July 7 2009, 9:13 pm: It will last a lifetime but you can only use it once? My theory would be an oven, but some of the clues obviously don't work there, and it isn't a typical sweet sixteen gift.
Disconnected answered Monday July 6 2009, 8:50 am: The only things I could come up with was also a laptop, but also a car.
She is very good at giving you clues, but in the end, you still don't know what it is :P
Maybe you could let me know what it is when you get it? :)
mysteriousR answered Monday July 6 2009, 12:52 am: Hmmm... Not quite sure but this sounds like a riddle lol. Might as well give it a try. I think it might be a laptop?
Laptops:
-come in various colors
-is maybe bigger than a breadbox
-does have a lot of parts and can have many accessories
-may have to share it with others
-they are advertised on TV and the radio
-they are really handy, convenient, and good source to kill time
-the reading part maybe about the manual you read before using it and the paperwork might mean you can do paperwork with it lol
-not wise to eat food over it but guess some foods like snacks are exceptional
-and the part about once you've used it, you will most likely want another probably means after a spending a great time with it you might want to upgrade to a better one
Anyways I am not entirely sure but sounds like it to me. But might be not since stuff like can only use it once and painting are your clues, but they contradict with the other clues like sharing it others and the fact it will last your lifetime must mean it can be used multiple times. But dunno. [ mysteriousR's advice column | Ask mysteriousR A Question ]
