You made several mistakes.
Laryingitis does not silence one, it merely makes them quiet.
"Let" is not the same as "commence". To commence is to begin. To let it snow is to make snowing able.
To envision is usually to not physically see something, instead, it means that they had a "vision".
A broadcast is not the same as telling something. |

| This one was great fun and not too tough.
I couldn't figure out "let it snow" or the bonus.
My son said he thought "let it snow" was "it's beginning to look a lot like christmas.  |

| I, too, agree with randomroachie. I'd say that sure is a lot of mistakes for one teaser. Also did not realize "Go Tell it on the Mountain" is a Christmas song.
But what REALLY bothers me is your flippant use of the word "nut" to indicate someone who would go to a psychiatrist. Blatant bashing. You should be ashamed of yourself.  |

| I thought these were most enjoyable, made to make one think! (some of us have a harder time than others I think I need more coffee!)
And the bonus? Speaking personally as a 'cracked nut', I thought it was BRILLIANT, and certainly NOT anything to take offense at!!  |

I never noticed the dates of comments before ... but it made me curious. If this showed up in December, why did some of us not see it until today?  |

shawneeo   
Jan 28, 2006
| Very funny!
You poo-poo people above are unbelievable! The thing about traditional Christmas songs is that most people know them by heart, so the clues don't have to be scientifically exact! I got them all except the bonus. You poopooers probably didn't get any of them, did ya?
Very funny, Thanks a lot!  |
c_rae   
Jan 28, 2006
| I thought it was very clever and funny (especially the nutcracker)! People need to lighten up and not take life so seriously. There is a lot of fun to be had out there if you're not so busy criticizing it!  |
kimberlykay

| Nice...I like this one!
You can go to each category of teasers and there are new ones posted there frequently. So, when and if it makes it to the "daily teaser", there may or may not already be comments. Look on the sidebar to the left when you are under the brain teasers tab and you will see a list of all the different categories. Click on a category and then you will see what I am talking about. You can rate these teasers and comment on them just like the daily ones.
Hope this helps!

| This was really cute and, honestly, if you look at other similar teasers, the words don't have to be exact synonyms, it would be way too easy. It's just supposed to hint toward the answer. lighten up people. |

| Amazing, I was all for not criticizing any of this teaser before. This time, while I still like it, I think: why is it that when there are definitely some corrections that could be made, are they never made once a teaser is accepted? It would only make it a better teaser to change a few of the words, like "commence" instead of "permit", "allow", etc.
I think the bonus is funny, but I'm not really sure why it's TWO psychiatrists? And "apartment" isn't the best hint for "suite", in my VERY HUMBLE opinion! That's all, sorry that I'm a poopoo person this time, but thanks for the fun teaser, its still overall great fun!  |
shawneeo   
Jan 28, 2007
| Oh whoops! I meant to say: use "permit" etc., instead of "commence", and I really, REALLY think the song is "Do you SEE what I SEE?" The lyrics are, "Do you see what I see, A star, a star, shining in the night, with a tail as big as a kite, with a tail as big as a kite!" and then after that: "Do you know what I know" and so on, but the title is "Do you SEE...", I think...  |

But isn't the Nutcracker Suite a ballet and not a tune? |
Pablo 
Jan 28, 2007
| And also I agree with Shawneeo. Why does it have to be 2 and not one or ten?
Apologies for being pedantic. Great job! |
Tracey2209   
Jan 28, 2007
| This teaser was fun, even if there were a couple of words that could have been changed. Great job!
Shawneeo, the song begins, "Said the night wind to the little lamb, do you hear what I hear?" The name of the song is correct.  |

shawneeo   
Jan 28, 2007
| OK, tracysmartypants, LOL just kidding, the title IS correct, BUT, the lyrics are: Said the night wind... Do you see what I see?" and THEN, the lamb says to the shepherd boy "Do you hear what I hear?".
so THERE  |

| Personally, I didn't appreciate the bonus one, but I got all the others correct, even though I did not know the 'ships' song--I just 'translated'.
I agree with those who encourage 'lightening up'. No one is perfect, and it's not the end of the world if wording isn't perfect; let's just try to go with the flow and move on.  |

How the heck do you put it in December? Oh, you mean, hide all Christmas-related teasers and only display them in December? Well, I HATE people like you who think that all Christmas-related stuff sucks. WHAT'S WRONG WITH CHRISTMAS?! Know that some people get easily offended by comments like that! Know what I think of people like you? This!
This was a wonderful teaser. The vague synonyms made the teaser challenging and fun. Good job! |
