Scavenger Hunt:: Word unscramble & shoot!
2OK.. so seeing how everyone liked playing the game yesterday, But my lack of wanting to ask and plead to try to add more points... only one lost them (which I still feel bad about) I'm going to do a similar game... Word scramble... First you must unscramble the word... then go take a picture of the item. Be the fastest and win. Like the others, Please keep the replies to the comments... 50 points per correct answer... I keep forgetting it's double... so 100 points.

Ah, shit.
So, to be clear - you'll post a scrambled word, then have to post the unscrambled word WITH a picture of the item, and be first - to get the points?
@Thumperchick YES! Thank you for clarifying! :) Also I won't keep the word structure... It could be 2 words, but I may put 3 words down.... just to keep it interesting. :)
@sohmageek Ah, shit.
@lisaviolet you are making me laugh out loud..my family is giving me stranger looks than normal!
First one is:
Sparked Cokes
@sohmageek
Speaker Docks
@Thumperchick Ah, shit.
@Thumperchick Ah, my picture hung up.
@lisaviolet It threw me for a minute, because @sohmageek scrambled the word letters across both words, instead of individually scrambling each word.
@KDemo I got the something went wrong video.
@KDemo I had mine from last night's final challenge.
@sohmageek speaker docks
It is plural but TC's pic only shows one - I win!
2nd one is:
Rage Cyborg
@sohmageek grocery bag
@sohmageek Does the word format matter at all?
@Thumperchick not really. I'm trying to keep it to 2 words if it's 2 words, but occasionally I find it funny to split them up more. I won't go to 1 word if it's 2. That may help you, I'll only add words not subtract them when I scramble them up.
You guys are doing much better than I would be... :)
3rd is:
Iran Veg
@sohmageek
Vinegar
(That's @humper's hand!)
@sohmageek vinegar
@sohmageek I'm gonna go eat lunch.
I'm going to ask you guys... would you prefer me to say how many words... or is it just as fun without knowing beforehand?
@sohmageek I prefer not knowing!
@jaremelz very well! :) also is the site running slow for anyone else?
@sohmageek Yes, it is.
@sohmageek it keeps just not loading! Or I get something went wrong
4th:
Dick Sell Lip
(I doubt you'll ever look at them the same way again now.)
@sohmageek dill pickles
Well that was weird.
@sohmageek dill pickles
@sohmageek I ran downstairs to the pantry, only to find that we're out of Dill Pickles. Are you hungry? Are you just hanging out in your pantry?
Also - is googling pics allowed?
@Thumperchick I just finished lunch... so not particularly hungry, just trying to find things that people would have without doing the same questions as yesterday... :)
5th: A Mob Horror Trim
@sohmageek
Bathroom Mirror
@sohmageek bathroom mirror
@sohmageek A bathroom mirror
@djslack I love that faucet and sink.
@jaremelz The A goes in bAthroom...
@Thumperchick thanks!
@Thumperchick yeah, don't ask. I'm not functioning today on a whole new level of suck. Thought I saw two a's.
Bathroom mirror
@lisaviolet Your pictures are hanging up my computer. Well played.
@KDemo Fixed it. Finally.
@lisaviolet Such a cute cat!
@sohmageek Thanks. He's an asshole.
@lisaviolet aren't they all?
6th Mad ape den style:
Cry Ugh So Up
@sohmageek
Cough Syrup
7th (I like mad ape den style...)
Lac Be Sub
@sohmageek
USB Cable
This whole game us just @sohmageek getting us to show him what's in our house.
@Thumperchick If we see "alarm codes" we'll know what's up.
@Thumperchick I thought the photo would help slow you folks down! :P You're proving me wrong.
@jaremelz or "underwear drawer"
@sohmageek I'm literally running around my house, taking shitty pictures.
@jaremelz ralam sedoc and uroy esouh yek
@Thumperchick But doing so very quickly. The internet gods do not love me today, everything is going so slow. It matches my insomnia brain.
@jaremelz or "A Mad Ken Own"
8th: Fleas Sat Grow
@sohmageek Storage Flaws. No place to keep these:
@sohmageek
Gross Flatware?
@thumperchick @djslack you guys are killing me... it's 3 words... but I'll accept what you have, keeping this going till I get what I'm looking for!
@sohmageek afterglow ass
@sohmageek I got nothin'. Think I'll go make Disney decals for my car.
@sohmageek
Glass of Water!!
It's all I have for a glass up here.
@Thumperchick Well done!
@lisaviolet my brain hurts now.
@Thumperchick Braggin' or complainin'? lol I think my brain is in storage right now.
@lisaviolet #humblebrag
@sohmageek can I get half points for having the glass part but not the water?
@sohmageek glass of water (actual glass)
@jaremelz that's a jar!
@sohmageek Goat wars self
@djslack it's glass, and water!
@Thumperchick you're making me want to go out and get dunkin iced coffee or iced tea now... :(
How many more are there? I really have to get something done today.
@lisaviolet Same here. Besides, it's hard running around taking pictures without pants on.
@Thumperchick I have some webcams in the house (at cat level), I have to be dressed.
This is what I had planned on doing:
http://journal.lisaviolet.com/lv/article/today_i_shall_attempt_to_make_a_car_decal
@lisaviolet "have to" is so subjective
@Thumperchick wife came home... I had to help unload the car... so I had to put some on too
@hallmike Not if you saw my ass...
@lisaviolet I showed you mine...
@hallmike
@lisaviolet I hope your tink turns out great!
@Thumperchick Thank you! I'll take pictures.
@Thumperchick So what makes running around without pants on so difficult?
@dashcloud The running part, obviously.
@Thumperchick Obviously.
ok last one... An Big Cut En
@sohmageek Gun cabinet, don't have one.
Well, a pill gun.
@sohmageek mine are in the closet, no dedicated piece for that purpose.
@sohmageek gun cabinet googled
@lisaviolet excellent.... :)
@sohmageek
gun cabinet
We have a safe. Had to run downstairs to get to it.
@Thumperchick I love the absolute right wing nut look of the gun safe being next to Jesus on the cross.
enjoy :) points to be updated soon!
Damn goat, making me run around.
@Thumperchick Could be worse right?
Nice twist on the game! Looks like it was fun. (I was taking a nap, since I never managed to sleep last night. Or I would have been posting pictures a few seconds too late, again.)
@christinewas - I believe today was @Thumperchick's day. Hope you feel better.
@christinewas Yeah there was zero competition to be had today, she's a posting ninja. How are ya now?
@jaremelz Honestly, queasy and feverish. I'll be fine, though. I deal with chronic illness, so I'm used to feeling like crap. Today's just a little bit worse than usual.
@christinewas Sorry you're dealing with a flare up. I hope you get an upswing, soon.
@christinewas Sorry to hear today was a bad one. That sucks.
@christinewas Oh, no!
@lisaviolet @kdemo @thumperchick @jaremelz Thanks, everyone! And it is official, now: today was definitely Thumperchick's day.
@christinewas
@christinewas Yeah, I was feeling pretty good up until she cleaned the floor with us. But I like it, she keeps us all just that much more on edge.
@lisaviolet Funny cause I think she's aiming for goat-hood... ;) @christinewas
@jaremelz If we were in a foot race, I'd totally have tripped her. Totally. It would probably look a little like this.
@lisaviolet I'm dying. Dying. That's too funny. Also, I've been cooking a 101 fever all day. But mostly it's what you posted. And if it was a foot race, I'd be back at the start, picking flowers and knowing better than to try.
@lisaviolet I keep laughing out loud at this. Repeatedly! Out loud! My husband finally paused the TV and stared at me until I explained myself.
@jaremelz I'd be picking flowers with you. Or making little twig houses.
@sohmageek Wait... who is?
@jaremelz It's miserably hot here today. In the office, right now, 7:30, it's 93.4°.
I'm sorry you've got a fever, but you've done well today. I hope tomorrow isn't as hectic. I really want to get these decals done. Amazingly, the Tinker Bell graphic is much cleaner than the Tigger graphic and I'm having to do a bunch of cleanup on it so that the cutter will cut it right. It's so boring....
Rest well.
@lisaviolet Oh no, that's too freaking hot! We are lucky in that respect, it's become downright fall like around here. Our little fake woodstove heater is even on!
I'll be fine. It's just this bug I picked up a week or so ago won't leave. I got it from my neighbor and it really kicked her butt for a few weeks. But she's not in good health, so I think that is why. I'll chase it out with sleep and water.
Will you post finished pics? I'm trying to needle felt a surprise for someone.
@christinewas Oh my Zod yes. We can make a village for fairies.
@jaremelz @christinewas I want to help build a fairy village!
@jaremelz Fall? Already... what state are you in?
@sohmageek I'm in WA. We went from being in the 90s and 80s consistently for months and then got a big storm last week. It dropped us into the low 60s and sometimes cooler.
@stardate820926 You're So in!
@jaremelz I wish we would see low 60's... It's been warm... 80's again today. I really wish I had air conditioning. :( Vermont doesn't really make it easy to do that... especially renting. :(
@sohmageek I think we are in the same boat. Air conditioning isn't really a thing here, so when it's hot, it's awful. We set numerous records this summer for high temps and lack of rain. My poor tomatoes barely made it. Hopefully you get a break soon!
@jaremelz I hope so too! I'm in Vermont(I tend to say that often, you guys probably think I'm a broken record about it.) I can handle -30, but it gets to 80 and I feel like I start to wilt.
The wife tells me I should start to wear long sleeves in the winter that summer would be a treat to wear short sleeves. I don't. I wear short sleeves year round. Even in the freezing cold. (I do wear a coat and pants though, I'm not as dumb as I used to be.)
@sohmageek I can handle the heat much better than the cold. I'm a wimp in that regard. This is why I knit, I must block every avenue through which cold can get to me.
My husband will wear shorts up until November. He's a freaking oven and I'm jealous.
@sohmageek I wear long sleeves as soon as I can handle them. I love fall and winter clothes.
@jaremelz For some odd reason, I feel betrayed by your preference for heat. Maybe it's that thing about me bringing forth the cold, harsh days of darkness.
@christinewas Don't feel betrayed! I'm taking about what we'd refer to as the bitter cold, the dry cold that gets in your bones. I can't help it, I was an extreme heat desert child. I actually prefer what we've got right now, this gray moderate temperature. Well, a few degrees cooler is nice. I have tubs and tubs of knits waiting to come out and play!
@jaremelz You like the heat? Weather this morning says "heat wave this week!" Oh. Joy. Temps around 97° on Wednesday and Thursday. Which means we add about five degrees to that to get a better idea of what it will be here at the house.
I am so done with this summer. I haven't slept under the covers in months. Brian slept on the sofa last night because the family room is cooler than the bedroom. I slept out there the night before. Sleep is so much better when it's just a little bit cold. I am so looking forward to it.
Miserable bitch. That's what I am in the heat.
@lisaviolet When it's never-ending, I get stabby . But I can handle a week of 90 better than a week of 15. However, add high humidity and I'll get stabby right out of the gate.
@jaremelz Stabby. I like that word. It's a good word. It's a descriptive word. I need to make a shirt that has the word Stabby on the front.
And I'm in absolute agreement on the humidity. Sing it, sister.
@lisaviolet It's a good go-to word to let people know where things are headed.
I do have a bunch of t-shirt transfers. Maybe a nice STABBY is in order.
@jaremelz It would be a great shirt. In a really nice script font that belies the meaning of the word.
@lisaviolet Are you thinking elegant or whimsical?
@lisaviolet
@jaremelz Elegant, I think.
Here's a fun paper, but it needs weeding for the blank areas.
@jaremelz Something along this line:
@lisaviolet I'm currently wearing a holographic and glitter vinyled shirt.
@MsELizardBeth Sounds pretty cool. I love working with vinyl.
@lisaviolet I also like this..
@jaremelz Stabby
Oh, sorry. Didn't mean to interrupt.
@mfladd Go play with your football
Oh this was easy...
