I got them Fun..thanks!
That was fun and I got them all!! We used to make up things like that when I was a kid: We called them "stinky pinkys" (or "stink pinks" if they were one syllable and "stinkity pinkities" if they were three syllables). Where that came from I know not.
I got them all--enjoyed it. Back in my college days (a long time ago) these were very popular. We called them "hink pinks","hinky-pinkies",
or "hinkitty-pinkitties." This brought back memories.
or "hinkitty-pinkitties." This brought back memories.
hey happy b-day!
I really enjoyed this one. I thought it was easy! I got them all!!!
I didn't get any but oh well, they were great
very good!!!get it!
I had fun with this one, very inventive! Also made me laugh, good job.
Still a good one, and by the way, happy b-day.
I really enjoyed this puzzle. For the last one I got "lock shock" as I read 'close' as in closing a door. Marie
I got 'near scare' and was disappointed that it didn't rhyme precisely.
i did'nt get the first one "sly fly" but i got all the rest got glad lad first then strong song, sly fly was a hard one for me. this is an excellent teaser keep up the good work. i loved this ond.........
It was fun. I like the teasers when they are "doable" and not impossible. Thanks. It was fun.
Most popped right away. Number one was a little trickier for me. I had lots of possible answers including "trick tick" and "hider spider"! Stuck with it for a few minutes and got it. Fun teaser, and my winning streak is back! Uh, one... Thanks for submitting.
Have to agree with Coachpisco.Fun and not out of anyone's reach to get at least some of them. There were certainly several different answers that would fit, so if you didn't get the same answer you woulddn't have to be wrong.
Yes, I like seeing the "alternative" answer, many of which I think are valid. I got "joy boy", for "happy boy". Altho it didnt say you couldn't use the same word, I couldn't think of anything better. I never think of the word "lad", and that was the key to another daily teaser a while ago! Also, I got "fit hit" for the "muscular tune", altho I did feel that "strong song" was a better answer. Thanks!
Nice work! Easy but fun...Happy Birthday
The preface was so right too. I got all but one instantly, but had to think a bit before getting strong song. I noticed the comments are a year apart mostly. Was this the daily on your bday last year too? Or maybe you submitted near your bday. Doesn't matter. Good teaser and have a very Happy Birthday!
Definitely fun! Totally, a mind stirring teaser! This should get anyone going in the morning. Not too easy, not too tough, yet witty enough to challenge ALL WTG!
Great fun, need some harder ones though.
I like this one. It was a little easy, but apparently not too easy because I did not get..strong, song.. . Great teaser, and Happy Birthday
Darn it, I could not get SLY FLY! Fun teaser.
For muscular song I had "built lilt'.
Easy!
This was fun, we used to do these when I was a kid too, we also called them hink-pinks or hinky-pinkies...
Lots of fun and not TOO easy. I really liked sly fly!
Happy Birthday!!
Lots of fun and not TOO easy. I really liked sly fly!
Happy Birthday!!
Excellent teaser. Like someone else, I thought close fright was near scare and was really disappointed that it didn't rhyme like it was supposed to. Should not have assumed one bad apple and kept at it it a while longer and I might have thought of the correct answer. Oh well. Got the rest of em without a problem so it's not so bad.
Oh, and Happy Birthday!
every now and then when things get boring around here someone comes by and makes all the teasers worth while...
easy but fun because im an
(insect male)
fly guy!!
easy but fun because im an
(insect male)
fly guy!!
very nice!
I got spy fly not sly fly, so I still won
One year later and I still like Mellow Fellow!
Great Fun. I got them all but I had to carry them around for a while and give it some thought over a coffee break. Sneaky insect was my most difficult. I wanted it to be some kind of pest.
Thanks for the fun!!!!
Thanks for the fun!!!!
Absolutely loved it!!!! I got all but one...
I got them all except the first one - I thought of "incognito mosquito" instead of sly fly! Fun teaser.
Sep 08, 2006
i wish these things could entertain me as much as all of you... i'm easily amused, but ummmmmm.... no
WHICH ONES WERE THE MORE CHALLENGING ONES?
I personally struggled a moment longer than the others when trying to come up with strong song ... the alternatives discussed in comments above were great, though! Good job to all!!
and WOW on incognito mosquito!!! That's awesome!!!!
and WOW on incognito mosquito!!! That's awesome!!!!
I have to second that, Qrystal! "Incognito Mosquito" was great, and totally hillarious!
Nice teaser. Got all except the first one.
Got 'em all. I like it when that happens. Thanks for the teaser!
I enjoyed it, too. Thought your 'Good luck' wish was the first challenge and came up with 'Great fate!'
great quiz! thanks for posting! please, more?
Nice job, good quiz!!!
I thought the fly was a spy not sly...
EZ PZ but very entertaining and clever! Thanks!!
Very cute, but easy. Liked it very much. Thanks.
Took me a minute to get strong song...Fun quiz!
Well, that was a fun one! It made me laugh. I got scolded by cutebug when I was negative and now lately she has been negative, but I won't scold her. It just makes me smile also.
Got all of them but "sly fly" for some reason that one escaped me. This was a fun one to figure out.
Sorry BABE,I didn't know I was negative. And why did you refer to me as a female? Maybe I'm a male!!!! Now you are confused!!!!
I forgot to go back to figure out sly fly- I do love the feeling when things pop into place though!
fun got funny bunny right away had to think about the other ones. wasn't able to get them all but i did enjoy it.
No sweat on any of them.
Nice! Glad lad seems to be a confusing one, even to me Oh well
Somehow missed "sly fly" but got the rest with ease. Great teaser
fit / hit
Got all but the insect. I felt foolish because I thought of fly couldn't think of sly? but All the rest came easily.
Fun, easy and entertaining teaser; I got them all very quickly.
I was confused with the word "close". Instead of close meaning near, I thought it was close like Close the door. OOOPS!
Instead of "sly fly" I got "smug bug."
Unfortunately, wimpykidfan37, "smug" is not a synonym for "sly", but for "self-satisfied".
Easy teasy. Quick, fun, simple.
