OK, this is a puzzler that I've only just worked out (someone having done it to me). There are any number of examples. Your job (should you choose to accept it) is to work out what I'm on about.
A is to T, as
A is to V,
as G is to A,
as S is to S
If you think you know it, don't say. If you think you know it, instead you have to put up one of your own.

I'll post more tomorrow if nobody gets it by then. There are a couple that make it pretty obvious, but I'll work up to them . . .

G is to B, as
I is to R, as
S is to M

What about if I said, Y used to be to the B, but now S is to the B?

Not really. Obviously the initials stand for something, and there is a pattern to it, but it's not sayings or phrases.

Housesparrow; the capital of Germany is Berlin. Which goes to show that there is no earthly point in going to school. Those facts we were forced to commit to memory become useless when someone knocks a wall down and changes the course of history. |
