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.

Posted by mitzimesser01/28/06
This one was great fun and not too tough. :D 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. :roll:

Posted by Chakoteya01/28/06
That bonus one is hilarious!

Posted by ragethe3rd01/28/06
I didnt get any but I'm bad at these things. It was still cute. :)

Posted by coachpisco01/28/06
LOVED the Nutcracker Suite one. Terrific! :lol:

Posted by thimblenoggin01/28/06
:D I agree with randomroachie

Posted by ceeyaaa01/28/06
fun to work out...but I missed 2 of them...good job :D

Posted by halfmoonscott01/28/06
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. :( :o :-? :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

Posted by OldChinaHand01/28/06
These are teasers, puzzles, not some profound source of wisdom. Lighten up. Enjoy. 8)

Posted by speediebean01/28/06
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!! 8) :lol: :D

Posted by shanniesue01/28/06
But it isn't Christmas any more! We should have done this teaser a in December. It drives me nuts that Christmas has to last all year long... there are lots of OTHER holidays, ya know!

Posted by choptlivva01/28/06
HAHAHAHA!!! Loved it!!!!! Especially the bonus!! :lol: :lol:

Posted by xolilangel827ox01/28/06
i have to say i agree with randomroachie! i got most of them and i think the nutcracker suite one was hilarious!! :wink:

Posted by maka1001/28/06
LOVED this!! Very fun! And "Go Tell It On the Mountain" *is* a Christmas song. "Go tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ is born." ;-)

Posted by churchlady01/28/06
:wink: Fun - tanks.

Posted by jabdr01/28/06
Cute one. Never figured out the snow...commences threw me off. Clever clever bonus. Good job. :lol: 8) :roll:

Posted by mogur01/28/06
Shanniesue, this WAS done in December. Look at the dates for the earliest comments.

Posted by doka1301/28/06
That was fun, I liked it! Really nice, I can't wait to see another teaser like this... 8)

Posted by raff01/28/06

LOL :lol: :lol: :lol: on the bonus. I had figured all the rest out but had to peek on the bonus. Sorry if anyone was offended, :roll: but I think it was a job well done! 8) :) 8)

Posted by bballer2101/28/06
i loved the bonus 1 all of them were good though

Posted by iteachkids01/28/06
H :lol: H :lol: H :lol: --- The bonus made me laugh! 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? :o

Posted by ginny32201/28/06
hey i loved this teaser! especially the bonus -- both my little brother and i thought it was funny. keep up the good work! :wink:

Posted by POPS01/28/06
WELL done my friend :lol: Had lots of fun figuring it out :roll:

Posted by Lucasgal01/28/06
This is a great one & bah hum bug to them all! 8) 8) :roll: :roll: :roll:

Posted by geofreak201001/28/06
Check your word usage. I would'vve been smart and funny if you had used actual related synonyms instead of vaguely relating words :x

Posted by hockeygirl01/28/06
i thought it was very cute and funny i liked it a lot altough i didnt get a single one :oops: :lol: :lol:

Posted by shanniesue01/28/06
I didn't notice the dates... I only tend to do the daily teaser. And I also wonder why, if the teaser was posted in December, is it just now up for daily teaser?

Posted by shawneeo01/28/06
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! :P :D :lol:

Posted by c_rae01/28/06
I thought it was very clever and funny (especially the nutcracker)! :lol: People need to lighten up and not take life so seriously. :wink: There is a lot of fun to be had out there if you're not so busy criticizing it! 8)

Posted by kimberlykay01/28/06
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! :D

Posted by Saketh01/28/06
I agree with randomroachie too! :D :) :( :o :-? 8) :lol: :x :P

Posted by yesenia8rivera01/28/06
Sequel! Great! I loved it :)

Posted by christine7701/28/06
i cant believe people take these teasers so seriously!! and they get all bent outta shape when its not "perfect"! this was great. keep it up. :lol:

Posted by saleprice01/28/06
I loved this teaser, got them all but the bonus, the teasers are light hearted fun and if they offend anyone they are welcome to not look or come back to the site........ lighten up people, life`s too short.

Posted by TTESS01/28/06
Greet teaser (Beethhovenswig?). I didn't get many but it was funny. Some people need to stop taking this so seriously.

Posted by bluehawk01/28/06
:D XMAS SONGS. HOW CUTE. MERRY XMAS DONE PAST. :D :wink: 8)

Posted by bluehawk01/28/06
:o ! I DIDN'T READ EVERYONES REMARKS UNTIL NOW. IT DOESN'T BOTHER ME THAT IT WAS POSTED IN DEC,/OR POSTED AGAIN IN JAN. IT'S JUST A" FESTIVAS" DAY FOR ALL TO READ. AND IF YOU DON'T LIKE TEASERS, THEN DON'T POST-(ABATE)! LOL LOL :D :lol: :wink: 8)

Posted by thimblenoggin01/29/06
:D As a "poo-poo" person, yes I got them all despite the clumsy articulation. :D

Posted by FulanitoGM01/30/06
Heh heh... "poo-poo..." That's a funny word... :lol:

Posted by wordlover01/30/06
This teaser was alot of fun. :D

Posted by WJSMama02/01/06
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.

Posted by michelle361702/06/06
hehe I liked the bonus.

Posted by SPUTNIK202/12/06
That was a lot of fun,,good job! :D :) :lol: 8) :lol: :P :D

Posted by willo01/28/07
I liked this one - especially the bonus one.

Posted by Trishgal01/28/07
good job :lol: got them all besides5. :cry: I really enjoyed it. THX. :D

Posted by lmurray01/28/07
GOOD ONE, ESPECIALLY THE NUT CRACKER. YOU'VE HAD TWO YEARS TO GET IT RIGHT, PUT IT IN DECEMBER!!!!

Posted by Rach_01/28/07
Lots of fun, thank you! Why do people feel the need to use so many emoticons, by the way? espec those who use them all so it ends up meaning nothing?

Posted by alfred1901/28/07
rubbish

Posted by shawneeo01/28/07
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! :D

Posted by shawneeo01/28/07
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... :D

Posted by Pablo01/28/07
Great fun! But isn't the Nutcracker Suite a ballet and not a tune?

Posted by Pablo01/28/07
And also I agree with Shawneeo. Why does it have to be 2 and not one or ten? Apologies for being pedantic. Great job!

Posted by Tracey220901/28/07
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. :wink:

Posted by coachpisco01/28/07
I loved the last one. :D

Posted by gaylewolf01/28/07
You took the words right out of my mouth, Coach! :lol: Very clever! :)

Posted by bgil760401/28/07
I found this teaser very boring and uninteresting. :( There were a few mistakes, and I felt like the clues were way too vague. Tjis is not one of my favorites. :x

Posted by Pizzazz2u01/28/07
A highly imaginative teaser! 8) Not too tough but enjoyable enough to keep the mind going! Keep up the terrific work! :P :wink: I can enjoy these anytime of the week. :wink:

Posted by bradon18200101/28/07
Without going over each little part of this teaser, I'll just say I LOVED IT. :o

Posted by shawneeo01/28/07
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 :D

Posted by amb191201/28/07
:D good job i liked it can't wait to see more! i think people should use comments to only comment not to say u did this worng it's ur teaser not theirs i liked it though :D

Posted by katjojo01/28/07
I thought this was really fun!! Thanks!! :D :D :D :D

Posted by ViaTunisi01/28/07
just ok- i've seen plenty like these before

Posted by Sand-Storm01/28/07
Right mix of fun & interest - gr8 job. :wink:

Posted by wordmama01/28/07
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. :wink:

Posted by saradove01/28/07
Very interesting. It took me a while to get them but I liked it a lot. :D I don't see how the title fits the teaser but o well. :roll:

Posted by breathesunshine01/28/07
This was awesome! I loved the way the clues made you pause and think a minute instead of getting the answers instantly. That's what this site is all about, stretching your brain!

Posted by Musikman21201/28/07
It's easy to tell the folks who couldn't get the answers. They're probably the ones who are finding fault. They all need to lighten up. Great teaser. I loved it! :P

Posted by sepherocity01/28/07
Very nice. Keep up the good work. 8)

Posted by _brynn06/07/07
ive seen this one before... isn't it in a book or something?

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?! :evil: Know that some people get easily offended by comments like that! Know what I think of people like you? This! :evil: :x :evil: :x This was a wonderful teaser. The vague synonyms made the teaser challenging and fun. Good job!

Posted by talanpoe01/28/10
One more complaint about #2: "commences" =/= "is allowed". Loved the bonus. (And, contrary to prior suggestions, this "poo-poo"er did in fact get all of the answers.)

Posted by patiencewithaP01/28/10
Great teaser! Didn't get the Nutcracker but did get the rest! :D

Posted by avonma01/28/10
Picky! Picky! Picky! I thought it was great! I got them all except the bonus one...like several others. And it was SO funny! :lol: Thanks! Good one! :D

Posted by bramfarm01/28/10
Fun teaser! I got them all including the bonus (with the hint)! Maybe it's going to be a good day. :wink:

Posted by auntiesis01/28/10
Tough one. But I love the bonus one. :D :lol: :D

Posted by wattsofawesome01/28/10
Got em' all! The Nutcracker Suite! Very clever! :lol: :lol:

Posted by Babe01/28/13
Fairly easy, but not my favorite. I have to agree with the remarks about misuse of words! Could have used better ones. Otherwise an Okay teaser :P :cry:

Posted by cutebug01/28/13
New to me, but another overused teaser for many. :D :D Hi GW. :wink:

Posted by gaylewolf01/28/13
I thought some of the clues were clever, but some seemed far fetched to me. This is winter and it's cold and snowy here in Michigan, but oh so pretty! Hi CB! Good to hear from you! :wink: :wink: :D

Posted by HABS293301/28/13
Scores a 5+ on the BSG!

Posted by eamon01/28/13
Sorry but the bonus was especially badly written. With the rest you could muddle through the mistakes but the bonus was more than a reach of wordplay.
