Puzzle
See if you can figure out what these seven words all have in common?
1. Banana
2. Dresser
3. Grammar
4. Potato
5. Revive
6. Uneven
7. Assess
Are you peeking or have you already given up?
No, it is not that they start with a capital letter.
No, it is not that they all have at least 2 double letters....
Answer:
In all of the words listed, you take the first letter, place it at the end of the word and then spell it backwards, it will be the same word

Reply was:
While some of your behavior is quite normal...
Other things you do are downright strange.
You've got a little of your freak going on.
But you mostly keep your weirdness to yourself.
I know, all others are informed, or lost: Sophie's choice:
