I looked at the photo and thought, "What new fashion thing that I'm unaware of do people wear on their middle fingers?" Hard to believe I missed it, but I did.

That wouldn't help me, it would have to be "7 is to slash as 1 is to plus". The ampersand is on 6 and the exclamation mark is way over on the right with some weird umlaut thing.

For the herbicide one, I thought "weed" would be more appropriate. It's targeted at a weed, just as a regicide is targeted specifically at a king.

True, but herbicides don't just kill weeds, herbicides refer to anything that kills any plants. Some herbicides are designed to just clear out anything and everything.

(this said as I also tried "weed" before trying "plant")

Regicide though is a term that can be applied anytime someone kills a king. Herbicide is a term that can be applied for products designed to kill plants.

@joeythelemur: Exactly. "Regicide" is the act of killing a king, not the weapons you might use to do so.

So; Regicide is NOT to King like Herbicide is to Plant.

"Alex is to Keanu as Bill is to Ted"

Shouldn't this read something more like "Alex is to Bill as Keanu is to Ted"?

The relationship between Alex and Keanu is not the same as that of Bill and Ted.

I think you should also accept "weed" for herbicide. That's what it is most commonly known for killing and used for. It's a bit nitpicky imo to only accept plant.

For the "front is to back", I insisted on saying that "bow is to quiver". And I think it should work. :)

I also did this. I also tried bow as in "take a bow" and couldn't figure what the opposite was..standing? remain standing? Kneel? D'oh!

I think I would have gotten it if the question had been "starboard to portside is as bow is to _____" or some variation of that.
