It seems unlikely that two camels would show up in the defs, so one must
be correct. I'll vote for 1 and 3.

A gun swiveling from a camel hump is almost as absurd as a moose turd pie. 3 and 5.

After i carved my first vote - a flawless 6 - from a 3-tonne slab of
Corinthian Granite, i realised i was a tremendously lazy person. So,
i'm just going to invert it and vote 6 & 9, and may Martha Stewart
have mercy on my semi-immortal soul.

Following the camel logic, I'll go for 1 and 3.

I read through to the end and didn't find any that made sense. I don't buy the camel bit, and some are absurd. Since I'm at the end of the list, though, I'll vote for 11 and 12.
