C--l- Is Pimping Again
FOUND by Faith Luke
in Abingdon, Virginia
During a boring day in biology class, I found a text book left behind by someone from an earlier class. I started flipping through and found this game of hangman. Must have been a boring day for this person, too.

@Me ... I hope you used a computer to come up with that list.
also, we never had sentences as complicated as this when I played this game back in school.
napolean dynamite.
carrot top.
zippy the pinhead.
ronald mcdonald.
forgot-
weird al
Is this line from a song or from the Simpsons or something like that?
Whenver I played hangman, we had two little steps leading up to the gallows. did we just make that up, so we'd have more chances at a stay of execution? Is it supposed to be just the hanging thigie, with no little steps leading up to it?
I'm really wondering what was crossed out at the top.
none of those words work if all the letters are placed properly.
He ain't cone-shaped. He's my brother.
The Es and As are already placed in the puzzle, so many of the words on Me's list need not apply.
the puzzlemaker apparently screwed up on everywhere. But it looks like a Y is present in everywhere, so .. maybe it's NOT "curly hair"? Can't think of another one that fits, though.
beldar, i think the 'y' has been crossed out- the kid needs 'urk'^^
upon closer inspection: Lars is absoultuely correct. The Ls and Rs are also already placed in the puzzle. NONE of those words (not even curly!) work...
BFGJKQUWXYZ (although it looks like the W and Y have already been added to everywhere; they're still just jockeying for position.)
CUGLY?
@Wrye-- Eraser Head
It's gotta be!
What is so great about a pimp?
I'd rather be a pimp than a pimple, rather be a beet than a beetle, rather be fab than a fable.
But that's just me.
Beldar.... we are from France
The person playing got almost all the letters without getting any wrong! Isn't the head the first thing to draw?
Remember the lady who lived in the radiator? That's what I remember most about Eraserhead. I saw that freaky movie at a drive-in theater. Which tells you how long ago that was!
I'd rather be a hammer than a nail, yes I would, I surely would, if I only could.. I'd rather be a spider than a snail.. Thanks for the laugh, Farmer! (and for bringing on a sudden attack of my Burst into Song Disease.)
Perhaps the hangman game was being played in Biology class to teach a concept. Maybe a cell or amoeba or something. I don't know, maybe there's some kind of biology form with a cone-shaped head and those little hairs that move the creature around.. (cilia? It's been a long time since I was in Bio class.) Anyway, I'm thinking that the bored student made his own biology thing out of it.
@DeLonghi, I remember the steps to the gallows too.
It kinda looks like he drew a head, but it fell off and landed under the gallows. Maybe he got this execution device mixed up with a guillotine.
@Sammy~ It's Eraserhead, FTW!!
Is it just me, or is this find evocative of Lance's little friend?
Pubic apology, Lance. I should not have said Little.
I think the word is supposed to be 'curly', but the person stopped when they got to the letter 'y', because that's when they realized they'd messed up the spelling of 'everywhere'.
I bet the confusion and embarrassment wrought by that little screw-up deflated the pimpness of that round of hangman.
...so I'm with Beldar on this one.
It's hard out here for a pimp.
I didn't notice the missing 'r' at first, but that's ok.
I'm confident enough in my lack of faith in the finds' author that I still think 'curly' was the intended word.
@ DeLonghi, I thought it was "I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail" like the sparrows would eat the snails. I don't think a sparrow would actually eat a snail, they aren't big enough, that's more what a thrush would eat, so I suppose a spider makes as much sense really. hmm
And Brain problem, I love the potential of a pubic apology, could be when one apologises with ones pubic area, like an after-argument shag. Or if one is being apologetic about ones pubic area; "well, I mean I usually keep a tidier ship, but I wasn't expecting company today, and there was no hot water so umm..."
Effie, it could very well be Sparrow (as in Jack? Hmm seems we can't go a day without invoking the spirit of Johnny Depp here..)
I'm going strictly on memory, and the last time I heard that song I MIGHT have been 8. (too lazy to google... aw what the hell)
I pubicly apologize. It is, indeed, sparrow. I guess they'd just rather fly around free in the sky than sludge along, leaving a trail of slime.
Eraser Head!!!! YES!
@Sammy- WINNER!
DeLonghi--I like your new moniker. Clever.
Hee hee. So cool ;)
I saw Eraserhead many years ago. I remember a baby...looked kind of like a bean sprout. Is that true,or was that a dream I had?
It seems that the whole movie was like watching someone's dream..but that 'do. Unforgettable.
FYI: We elementary school teachers are no longer allowed to call this game "hangman." Nowadays it's robot, hockey-player, or some other less violent alternative.
I never thought a hockey player could be considered a less violent alternative to anything...
Lolita, yes, there was a baby in Eraserhead. It screamed and was horrible. It was a dream-like movie. Dark. Nightmare-like.
