RE: [Dixonary] Round 2973, vote for OGAGOT
 

I don't believe any of them, least of all mine, so I will reward the following with my votes:

4. a feather taken from a young ostrich in its first year (because it seems ridiculous)

and

16. an eight-sided die (just because)

Re: [Dixonary] Round 2973, vote for OGAGOT
 

Eliminating my own, those with typos, and the implausible? ones leaves three. In choosing two of those to vote for, 9 and 13, I probably eliminated the correct one.
