| i actually thought it was fairly easy. i have a kind of linguistic mind that i can get things things pretty fast. i got the 'informal english weight' and then reversed it but i got 'loki' out of it... that's the only one i missed. pretty ingenious teaser.  |

| I hate to be the one to raise a petty objection but I couldn't get the fourth one. A kilo is a unit of mass not weight. Newtons is the European unit of weight. Yes I know I'm a geek. It's my job I'm a physics teacher. |

Looks like I'm the only one who didn't like the clue for the last one, I just couldn't get intern out of that, but I got all the other ones! Thanks! |

| Thanks, MrLarsonCHS, for the lesson on weight vs. mass! I had no idea.
I got the first and last ... and with more time, I may have gotten more. For "believe/leave be" I had "be-let"/"LET be." Close, but no cigar. |

| Fishmed, loved it very much. Got 1 thru 3, I got kilo, bu tcouldn't figure out low-key and I kept thinking temp or temporary for a student's summer job, now if ou had said a new doctor, maybe I would have gotten intern. Don't know tho because I couldn't even get turn in. Hee, hee. Loved them all tho, Please keep them coming because it is just so much fun to let all those words rattle around up there with the hungry squirrels. |

| Great teaser! I had a great time solving it. In answer to the recent comment about the intern clue, med student whatever -- what if you had used Monica Lewinsky??? think that would have helped! ROFL... |

| seems the hard one was 2
and that one got me too
but I continued thru it
I dont know how you do it
it could take me many days
to find enough words of praise
for all the teasers you submit
and only for the fun of it
WELL DONE MASTER!

| Wow. Well written. Admittedly I didn't see the answer to the example and couldnt understand how it worked. Therefore I got 3/5 (go figure). |

| I had a lot of fun with this-- got 'em all right too, but I really thought it was cute and I would've enjoyed it even if I got some wrong -- maybe I need to seek out the other Flip It(s?) and challenge myself some more!
I was also lucky that my physics-mind was completely aware of how weight and mass are often used interchangeably, because 'kilo' came to mind fairly quickly.
To add to the lesson above, I just wanted to add that when we "weigh" ourselves, our Earthly scales take our weight (in Newtons, say, which are kg*m/s^2) and essentially divide by the amount of gravity expected (9.8 m/s^2), in order to tell us our mass (in kg). If we brought our scale to the moon, where gravity is about one sixth that of earth's, the "mass" shown would be one sixth of what it really is. So yes, scales measure weight, but when the measured value is reported in kilograms, the result is actually how much mass we have.
However: "pounds" are units of force! THIS must be why there is such confusion about the difference between weight and mass! My scale shows both!! |

allythebuterfly
Mar 03, 2013
| I thought I didn't get any of them, but I actually got 3 and 4 without realizing it haha! When I thought of believe I thought live be for the switch instead of leave be, and when I thought of kilo I thought of Loki as in Thor's brother instead of low key....ha, I'll also add that it's 4:30 in the morning and I couldn't sleep |

| Bad morning. 3/5 That's 60%. Failing in any test.Guess I flunked out. |
HABS2933
Mar 03, 2013
| The only one that gave me a bit of trouble was kilo / low key I was thrown by the "European weight" clue. Kilo is not European, it is metric and the metric system is used throughout the world, including Canada. I was thinking Stone for that answer. but couldn't get the second to fit with that. I worked it backward and figured it out tough.
Good teaser, really enjoyed it. |

| I only got 2 of them - I *really* flunked out! Habs, nice explanation of the metric system - thank you! Have a great day, everyone! |

| I missed number 2 - Should have been able to come up with the word pursue if I had just put it aside a few minutes and come back to it, but I didn't have that much patience and had to check the answers!! Good Teaser! |
