| Bob is married to Sarah
Joe (Hatfield) eloped with Emily (McCoy)
Bob Keeshan has been immortalized in a cereal
Sarah kept her maiden name for the delicious cakes she sells
The action never stops at the home of Joe & Emily, plates are flying, kids are crying, dogs are barking
It goes on and on... |

| OMG, I didn't get it. I must not have any patience either because I couldn't get it. I can't believe I couldn't get it! But it was fun and not to mention funny. I don't think I will look at cereal the same. lol. And oh, i agree redneckwoman, llama llover were you neglected as a child?you should really think about revising your POV its not too optimistic.  |

Grrrrrreat! teaser by the way. |

| I just clicked the "this is offensive" button on three comments. There's a certain two of you that need to be a little less mean. Instead of calling it "lame" or "idiotic" or something like that, you could simply not post a comment, or try to find something good about the teaser.
I agree that Llama shouldn't have said that, and that it IS pestimistic. However, the two who mentioned this were also not very optimistic. They were complaining, and optimists usually don't complain. |
ceeyaaa  
Sep 30, 2005
| Okay now I know I am a complete idiot...i didn't get it...My mind must be shut down Very cute!! |
Trickster1992   
Sep 30, 2005
| Yes, I got the teaser. Right away! I used to believe that everybody was a cereal killer. (I didnt know how it was spelled...). Why? Well, back then, I thought everybody in the world ate cereal, therefore making them cereal killers. When I finally heard a report about one on the news, I said to my dad, "Dad, why are they making such a big fuss over a guy in a train killing his cereal?"  |

| To all the posters that are easily offended by certain posts here, "lighten up". There is a certain right, "The freedom of speech". You may not like it, but it is what it is. Besides, there are always way more positive comments here than negative. JMHO. |

| I have never been able to get a Rebus, not even the ones everyone says are easy - & I don't consider myself mentally deficient in any way. My brain just doesn't work that way. (And as Richard Smiley on SNL would say "That's OK! 'Cuz I'm good enough, I'm smart enough & doggone it peopel like me!") Hope that made someone smile!
Thanks for the funny, it was a very amusing moment on a TGIF! |

FulanitoGM   
Sep 30, 2005
| Neomajic, I couldn't agree with you more, and I've said the same thing before. Nowhere does it say that this should be the "nice" comments section, or the "only positive" comments section. People have a right to voice their opinion. Personally, I prefer constructive criticsm, but that isn't always going to happen. Furthermore, I think a lot of these guys only say these absurd comments just to get people riled up, and you guys fall for it EVERYTIME! If something is truly offensive (i.e. bad language, explicit language), that's one thing. Give those an "offensive" thingy, but just because someone says a certain teaser was "lame," don't lambaste them.
Personally, I didn't think this particular teaser was all that great either. It way too easy. The joke has been done a million times over, and we should be getting fresher, more challenging teasers. It's just my opinion; don't crucify me for it, or anyone else for theirs. I'm just sayin'... |

| haha i thought it was great! i actually got it ! Im getting better people congratulate me! To the people who didnt like it: you have a right to your opinion and you can say whatever you want, just try to be nice K? everyone is happier although you guys just have to learn when to ignore rude comments
And just for the record: i am NOT a cerial killer! i don't eat cerial well i eat go lean once in a while but thats it
great teaser!!!  |
Tiggr   
Sep 30, 2005
| Had I not heard something like this inan ICP song "I'm a ceral killer. I'ts a bad habit, I killed Tony, Lucky Charms, and the Silly rabbit."It still would've been an easy teaser. Nonetheless it was a job well done.  |

| FulanitoGM is absolutely right. Llama Lover and his club are getting exactly what they're after. They DO generate interesting discussion. |

Sep 30, 2005
| I agree that it was a easy one but it was cute. I just wanted to make a comment on what everyone else made one on and that is that people are intitled to his or her on opinion. It is how you say it to people, if you say it in a rude way but that was not you intention people will still take it that way. You must say what you mean and mean what you say. You are allowed to disagree with others, hey if you don't like or care for it then say so. how else is one to know how you feel if you don't. Just don't be rude in your tone or people will react accordinly. |

| I've used this idea for a Halloween costume - buy the little boxes of cereal and add something to each. A hangman's noose, stick a plastic knife in one, etc. Add them to a large old shirt, and your ready. You'll get some great comments.
PS - I prefer the positive comments. I come here for entertainment only, not in depth discussions. Thanks. |

| Gee, Fulanito, I see you've been a member for nearly 1 1/2 years, and you've contributed a total of, how many? Oh, ZERO teasers. Yes this one is easy and kind of lame, but obviously popular. I suppose "we" sometimes like the groaners. And in response to the "free speech" comment further up, that right has nothing to do with what is an acceptable post in here. Of course criticism of teasers is acceptable, but insults are not necessary. Thus the "this is offensive" link which can cause a post to be deleted. |

| LAME IS NOT AN INSULT, IT'S THE TRUTH, THIS WAS A VERY WEAK TEASER. AS FAR A DIFFICULTY IS CONCERNED, IT CERTAINLY WAS NOT CHALLENGING. I AM SURE THE AUTHOR SPENT TIME DOING IT, BUT THE EDITORS SHOULD STEP UP AND RAISE THE BAR FOR THE TEASERS SUBMITTED.
IF ANYONE IS TO BLAME FOR SOMEONE'S FEELINGS BEING HURT IT BELONGS TO THE EDITORS.
AFTERALL, THE NAME OF THE WEBSITE IS BRAINGLE. |

| Funny one! I don't think it's about how hard it is but how much you enjoy getting it. Maybe some of you guys are really good at these things but for me it's nice to get a simple light-hearted once in a while. Feel free to have a different opinion could you voice it a little less nastily? Thanks.....  |

Badger   
Sep 30, 2006
| Ditto on TTESS's comment. Also, remember boys and girls, this site is designed for people of varied ages and backgrounds. Yes, a little too easy at times, and very challenging at others... but I feel that the bulk of the teasers are a happy medium, and a "daily" was core curriculum for my four kids over summer vacation. ... for what it's worth...  |

| Cute teaser. I got it right away--but sometimes I like easy ones,especiallly on a Saturday morning.
I have never seen a "This is offensive" button. Why am I missing that? (I also agree that to be offensive it should be really rude or bad language, not just an opinion that might not be a compliment. I usually try to go by the old adage, "If you can't say something good, don't say anything at all." But constructive criticism done in a fiendly way can by good.) |
Pizzazz2u

| Too bad for all the people who found this teaser "insultingly" easy. I, for one, NOT mentally deficient, am also not terribly creative and thus do not usually get rebuses at all. So I was thrilled to get one easily!! I'd figured it was because one of our many favorite shows is "Criminal Minds", which thrives on serial killers!! |
