Can you determine which common word or phrase this picture represents?
My answer to the question (above) asked by the submitter would be "yes" but I prefer not to answer because this teaser is a clear violation of the FAQ on submittals of Rebuses.
Below is the language from the FAQ copied here verbatim.
Only common phrases will be accepted - no single words, names, names of objects, titles, etc. will be accepted.
Sooo .... was Jake asking us to violate the rule? Or has Jake not READ THE RULES?
Or ... (maybe) ... it's a STUPID rule and this is Jakes 'cute' way of telling us to ignore the rule herewith and thusly?
Or ... ('nuther possibility) ... maybe the Eds were asleep (hopefully not together except for the two who are married to each other) and simply let this one 'slip through' thinking nobody in their right mind* would challenge either Jake (owner/operator of Braingle) or the autocratic Editors in the matter.
Thus ... if you are reading this, read it quickly because either or both of us are likely to get booted for this one.

Interesting that all of Jake's teasers get the same comments. The rule may be stupid, but this one is very close to being a common phrase.
fun!
Fun, easy and entertaining teaser. I got it very quickly.
