I have read this evening that this (question in heading) is sometimes used as a screening question as autistic people tend to have a different interpretation to neurotypical people. Just wondering what people's answers would be and whether you're autistic or not. I and my friend both are and we both gave the answer usually given by autistic people.
Also, if anybody knows of any other similar questions or tests, or places where I can look for them, please let me know. I am utterly fascinated!
There are many answers, because it's a broad question.
You could say they're both numbers, both prime numbers, both factors of 14, etc.
But that's just maths.
There are surely many other things they have in common.
I like this one - they're both birds in the traditional Christmas song 'The 12 Days of Christmas'. How could I resist saying that if asked what they had in common??
Possibilities for commonality abound!

Err, the week starts on Sunday so that would be an M...

In reality about 55% of the world use Sunday and the other 45% use Monday so it is pretty ambiguous
I like that!
In the English language, the second day of the week begins with T as does Two.....The seventh day of the week begins with S as does Seven
