The King Kong game

…made a brief but glorious comeback last evening. First played one evening in late 2004 by myself, Rana Dasgupta, Monica Narula, Shuddhabrata Sengupta and Sayoni Basu, this game involves the identification and classification of great apes through sets of two cunning clues. Two classic examples:
What do you call a green-transport-using great ape of ambivalent sexuality?
BiKing Kong
What do you call a decidedly non-saintly heavier-than-water great ape?
SinKing Kong
And one from last night, courtesy Sumana Bhoothalingam:
What do you call a Nordic, constantly questioning great ape?
ViKing Kong
There are hundreds more. Consider this an invitation to provide some.
