Dart Exhibition
Eagle-eye Ixolite, the world famous dart player, was at an exhibition match and was showing off to the audience.
"I can throw a dart and it will hit the board anywhere I want!" he cried. "Where on the board shall I put my next dart?" he asked the crowd.
A small boy came up to Eagle-Eye and passed him a slip of paper. Eagle-eye, who liked a rebus, took one look at the note, threw his head back and laughed, then threw the dart. Where did it land?
This is what was on the note:
Perfume Bottle R.I.P.

Very funny!

Clever! Of course, I woulda never got it............
Love it, Love it, Love it. Wish I had solved it, but since I didn't, I can only say, great rebus and thank you so much for posting.
Great rebus. Wish I had gotten it. More, please.

great teaser
i liked it but the rebus seems backwards to me . as in scenter dead . good one anyhow though
It must have gotten mixed up in the translation. I didn't get it either. Thanks for posting anyway.

Too funny I got dead for RIP, and the only phrase I know with that word that would apply is 'dead center'. So I was ready to post that I couldn't get it...got hung up on dead center and couldn't think of anything else...never imagined scenter for center
I loved this one! It was well wrote.
Nice. I didn't get it, either.
I mean, I didn't SOLVE it. I understand it, though.
double bullseye, or bullseye?
I liked it.. course when you are able to figure them out you always do. i rarely am able to get a rebus , so I was happy . Cute story ,too.
I got this one, I liked it a lot
For those of you that don't get it:
The perfume Rests In Peace. so, the scenter (the perfume) is dead. It's a dead scenter.
Great teaser!

Good!
groan.
Very good. And enjoyable. The story was cute.
Funn Neee! HAR! That was very clever! I LOL'd! I did guess it correctly, too!
That was an easy one, and rather humorous to boot.
Coulda shoulda woulda, but I didn't.... Did enjoy it when I read the answer, though!
One really need stretch the imagination to define perfume bottle as "scenter." Didn't get it, yet I probably could have by eliminating the possibilities.
In 2014 I found this humorous or else I was being nice, because now I am wondering who in the world calls a perfume bottle a scenter??? No one, I think except the author. If she had looked it up she would have found it has an actual name. A lot of people did not get this because of that.
I enjoyed this one, the story is cute.
Sorry, thought it was junior level?
I was thinking poison, which is the name of a perfume.
Clever and funny. Without the story, I never would have gotten it. With the story, it was fairly straightforward. Like most, I woked backward. Knowing the answer, I figured out how the rebus represented "center".
