Who needs the peace corps?

punknaynowned - 25-3-2008 at 05:54

oh that's beautiful, that's gotta be right.

polydigm - 25-3-2008 at 06:15

Sorry, it's not Who Needs The Peace Corps. And this time, I'm not giving any clues, just see how far this goes.

:devil:

scallopino - 25-3-2008 at 08:50

Let me ask you this poly: are you symbolising the actual title of the song, or the internal theme of the song?

A little bit of both. It's not an exact replica of the title like your Duke + Chops idea. It's more than just the theme though. If I told you what occurred to me when I first looked at this picture, that would give it away. It's very similar to something in my Zappa collection that you may not have seen. Give it a whirl and see what happens.

Badchild - 25-3-2008 at 09:43

I got two candidates...

Flower Punk or I Don't Wanna Get Drafted.

Nice try, but no.

Ok, i'm now getting a premonition...it's... coming to me...yes, yes...is it...The Chrome-Plated Megaphone of Destiny?

No, where did that one come from?

scallopino - 26-3-2008 at 04:10

:-P The premonition...they're never reliable.

polydigm - 26-3-2008 at 10:07

Okay, maybe it is a bit too obscure. When I saw this picture it immediately brought to mind the reverse side of the cover of a Zappa single and thus I thought of the track on the B Side. That should give it away.

Badchild - 26-3-2008 at 11:39

Ancient Armaments ????

scallopino - 26-3-2008 at 11:50

If that's not the answer then i'll eat the nearest hat.

polydigm - 26-3-2008 at 13:21

Is this trip really necessary?

Good on you Badchild. Okay, someone else have a turn.

Badchild - 26-3-2008 at 14:58

Yesssssssssssssssssss!

BBP - 26-3-2008 at 15:59

While waiting for a new pic, here's a small little one for you to guess... some Chinese animal mistreat...

http://sirius.2kat.net/cats.html
(caution: sick)

Badchild - 26-3-2008 at 20:53

I know...

Yo Cats!

BBP - 27-3-2008 at 21:13

Indeed! :bald:

polydigm - 28-3-2008 at 09:01

Okay, I'm taking heed of Scallop's question relating to whether my previous picture was symbolic or not and I'm now going to attempt a symbolic puzzle.

Badchild - 28-3-2008 at 09:20

Too easy....Alien Orifice !:freak::duh:

BBP - 28-3-2008 at 09:20

Hey! Just ahead of me!

Anyway I can't see the pictures...

punknaynowned - 28-3-2008 at 09:32

how did you guys come up with that out of that?

Badchild - 28-3-2008 at 11:09

Well those are Spacemen (and spacewomen) and she is just an orifice....of sorts....

When the picture of her came up there was no spacemen so i instantly thought "Miss Pinky" Heh heh!

heres one you'll never get.....

polydigm - 28-3-2008 at 12:48

Hey you guys, just hold your horses, you haven't figured mine out yet. It is not Alien Orifice. You've made an amusing connection Badchild, just not the right one.

polydigm - 28-3-2008 at 12:50

While I'm at it, is yours Uncle Remus?

Badchild - 28-3-2008 at 14:12

Oh fuck! yes it's Uncle remus..... Like that little lawn jockey heh!

Ok Poly, yours must be "the radio is Broken" !

That wasn't my question! I think i asked you WHAT you were symbolising! Do you mean this round symbolises the content more than the title?

BBP - 28-3-2008 at 18:08

If it were a Bowie song I'd say Space Oddity.

Badchild: Uncle Remus? (jockey on the lawn)

Come on Bonny, you have to keep up. I figured that one out already.

And, no, it's not The Radio Is Broken. :devil:

And to Scallop: What I meant was that the Make Love Not War picture did not symbolise the title. It was more cryptic than that. The picture reminded me of the back cover of the I Don't Wanna Get Drafted single which has Ancient Armaments on the flip side. This time I'm trying pictures that literally symbolise the song title.

punknaynowned - 29-3-2008 at 01:03

Are you saying it's Crew Slut? Because if you are, that's a really terrible thing to say about Ms Hilton.:shocked:

scallopino - 29-3-2008 at 03:07

That must be it!

You see? It was too easy. Next time I do this, I'm going to be more cryptic.

And, Punky, I just showed you the pictures, you made the association. :devil:

Anyway, well done, you have a go.

I think I'm figuring it out!
hahahaha, you showed the pictures but the idea of the game is that we agree to submit to other's ideas -- to be led along by the series, or to convert pictoral to verbal ideas, to make associations of stuff that other's put up-- which means thinking like 'they' would and in order to do that, put yourself in the imagined head space of other's, what other's are likely to see or call something. We all are (thankfully) sharing a common language and cultural set so that's not too hard. But admit, you are being devilish by making that association to be found in the first place.
(: Now don't get me wrong, I don't care one way or the other what you or anybody thinks of that celebrity or their behavior. I don't keep a tv so I don't have to watch it or even know what the hell it's about. Just giving ya heck. (:
Now Im off hunting pictures

punknaynowned - 29-3-2008 at 17:24

can you even see what they are images of?

BBP - 29-3-2008 at 18:14

Dress Jeans. ...Green Genes?

punknaynowned - 29-3-2008 at 21:38

no but it's what's been done to the jeans
and the first , I think, brings to mind a certain . . . place

scallopino - 30-3-2008 at 02:35

Hmm. To quote Gilbert and Sullivan, this is perplexing.

BBP - 30-3-2008 at 11:38

G-spot TORNado?

scallopino - 30-3-2008 at 12:13

Transylvania Boogie? I'm not confident.

punknaynowned - 30-3-2008 at 13:53

No,but it i two words and an album title

Badchild - 30-3-2008 at 15:13

Has to be

HOT RATS

punknaynowned - 30-3-2008 at 23:47

no, not that either.
a song name that is also an album title

polydigm - 31-3-2008 at 05:32

Tinseltown Rebellion?

punknaynowned - 31-3-2008 at 06:51

of course! even the tinselgirl has a city tower behind her!

your turn

It's not like Punky didn't provide enough clues. I'm too tired right now to search for another puzzle, but I'm thinking about it. If anyone else has got an idea in the mean time, go for it.

BBP - 31-3-2008 at 17:46

This one's a little easier... :drool:

polydigm - 31-3-2008 at 21:50

Fountain Of Love?

BBP - 1-4-2008 at 13:58

Yup... That's chocolate...

polydigm - 1-4-2008 at 20:44

Badchild - 2-4-2008 at 07:29

I'm going for the long shot here.....

could it be......SHEIK YER'BOOBIE ??

polydigm - 2-4-2008 at 12:14

Damn ! I was so sure of my answer....

Then it must be "Sinister footwear":grin::grin:

I had a feeling it would be too easy. As Badchild guessed, the bird is a Booby - a Blue Footed Booby to be exact. Booby can also mean Fool, and this one is doing it's mating dance. Okay, Scallop, take it away.

Badchild - 2-4-2008 at 22:55

now that was a mouthful in any language!
Huzzah!

Badchild - 3-4-2008 at 08:45

This the one...
BBP aren't you glad you stuck to duck (s)??

scallopino - 3-4-2008 at 11:03

Badchild gets the prize for the most imaginative answers. Go into the change rooms and try this one on for size:

Badchild - 3-4-2008 at 12:55

thanks what do i win ???

that could be City of Tiny Lights although i dont see the link between a shore road and a city ??

But hey! i got imagination to spare...

scallopino - 4-4-2008 at 08:58

You win the Imagination prize: imagine the best prize you could think of and it's yours, imaginarily.

It isn't City of Tiny Lights. The word 'light' in the last picture is an unneeded accessory and I didn't even notice it until I already posted it here.

Badchild - 4-4-2008 at 09:30

Well i'm imagining a red 05 mustang GT so thanks again...

Now it looks like Rhode Island something or other....

BBP - 4-4-2008 at 09:53

It's New Zealand... (thinks some more...)

polydigm - 4-4-2008 at 22:01

The Ocean Is The Ultimate Solution?

scallopino - 5-4-2008 at 02:19

No. The order of the three pictures is essential. With the first two, think...uh...shortcuts.

BBP - 5-4-2008 at 07:25

RDNZL!!! Good one!!

scallopino - 5-4-2008 at 13:06

Excellent job!

polydigm - 7-4-2008 at 09:06

Okay, who's next? I look forward to my little puzzle fix.

BBP - 7-4-2008 at 11:37

Sorry... was a little busy...

polydigm - 7-4-2008 at 12:45

Yellow Shark?

Badchild - 7-4-2008 at 12:47

MUDSHARK

BBP - 7-4-2008 at 15:14

Badchild's right!And what an enjoyable pic, too!:shocked:

Badchild - 8-4-2008 at 08:57

Ok here's mine....

good luck

scallopino - 8-4-2008 at 11:22

Dumb all over? (and a little ugly on the side)

Badchild - 8-4-2008 at 13:19

I know it was real easy....but that earth picture sure looks cool on the black background heh!

BBP - 8-4-2008 at 14:36

I bet... though I use a blue/white bckgr. (I still think my nude man looks better. Was there a Mud Shark in that pic?)

Well you're a guy, aren't you? Try that pose in front of a mirror (when the kids are out) and see what you have dangling there.

Ahh... non-shaven... :cool:

Florentine Pogen...

Badchild - 11-4-2008 at 08:26

Tricheuse....you looked at the properties of those images to find the answer...didn't you ?

Why are a bunch of Dutch people in the woods called a Pogen ?

BBP - 11-4-2008 at 08:37

A pogen is in Dutch infinitive, meaning "to try". The pic comes from a local newspaper in the north of Belgium (in Turnhout), near the border.

The easiest-to-recognize building in Florence to me is the Dome of the church. When it was initiated, Guillaume DuFay composed something for the occasion, one of the most famous pieces of the era.

BBP - 11-4-2008 at 08:40

punknaynowned - 11-4-2008 at 10:03

Pogen = to try in dutch? fantastic! thank you!
Guillaume du Fay? Burgundian? I'm guessing.
you must be talking about this guy

I am learning so much more now and this Bonny is preciselyt the period I'm studying !!!!!

Badchild - 11-4-2008 at 13:19

Willy the Pimp ?

punknaynowned - 11-4-2008 at 13:23

woah!
I never would have guessed that, but I can see it now!

BBP - 11-4-2008 at 14:24

Yup!

My favorite Willie is Willie the Worm, but I can't find any pictures of that.

(and I want that Lamborghini... love those doors...)

Badchild - 11-4-2008 at 15:38

Huh Bonny that's not a Lambo sorry...huh!...looks more like a "Pimped" out Seat Leon or a maybe an Audi...
This is a Lambo....

see only two doors!

BBP - 12-4-2008 at 07:35

It said Lambo in the image pic location...
