Title: Favorite Hard-Shelled Fruit?
Post by: B E C K on Oct 23, 2010, 01:17:27 PM
Fiero mentioned, like, pineapple.  What else is there?  Seriously, my mind's cotton.  Coconut?  Is that a fruit?

True nuts are hard shelled fruits.

Melons.

Coconuts are fruits, and the only one of their genus.

Define a true nut from a false nut.  Do peanuts count?  Almonds?  Walnuts?  Pecans?

In broad terms, a fruit is a structure of a plant that contains its seeds.

You're a fruit.

I do contain seeds, of a sort, but I am not a structure of a plant. At least not until the machines take over.

Does cantaloupe count? Its shell isn't that hard. I guess it's kind of hard. I suppose it is a melon.

Anyway, cantaloupe. Cantaloupe is my answer.

Eh... really? He looks pretty soft to me.

Like a pillow that's seen too much action -- all distended and formless.

Cantaloupe counts in my book, and since I made this shit up, then my book is the one the counts in my book.

He's hard as a rock man, hard as a rock.

But the rest of the stuff was in a box, so you half-passed.
