My, my, how times have changed !!
Ten years ago our Dad submitted the following for a rebus:
Title:
"N" ing
Body: read it top-down for the Rebus
inning
innng
Answer:
"making ends ('ns') meet"
Although the editors - at that time - apparently had NO quarrel with the "homophone-like" connection they said that a proper Rebus need not have any "directions" or "instructions" for the answer.
Apparently that has changed.
Were you, by chance, an Editor back then?
His subsequent "debate" with the editors - at the time - was, we feel, one of the reasons he was kicked off Braingle.
Interesting, interesting.
