During my turn at being the judge in Apples to Apples, the word was "visionary". My first reaction was to pick the Bill Gates card and throw the rest out without looking at them. But to be fair, I sorted through them.
I got ridiculed when I threw out the Rosa Parks card. Worse I admitted I did not know who she was. Even worse was when I said I did not really care.
If I got off work because of a Rosa Parks holiday then maybe I might have known of her almost haphazard bus stand. Didn't sound premeditated. Sounded as if she was just at the "right" place at the right time. If it wasn't her, it might have easily been someone else.
But in her defence, she was very active in Civil Rights prior to the bus incident I am told. And wikipedia confirms it.
I'd still pick the Gates card.
