The answer to Whatzit? #9 was “Bull in a China Shop.”
This was a good Whatzit puzzle! If only I had clued in that by using the word “Taurus,” they meant bull. Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac and its emblem is the bull. It wasn’t a very hard one if you knew stuff about the zodiac signs. Taurus was written between china shop, therefore you get “Bull in a china shop.” This is what a found on the internet:
Bull in a China Shop:
Definition: someone who is clumsy; someone who upsets other people's plans
Explanation: Used when talking about a person who is rather insensitive
Examples: He was like a bull in a china shop with our new clients. - His lack of understanding made him appear as a bull in a china shop.
I don’t believe that I am a very clumsy person and that line has never been used on me but I do remember my mom telling me to never touch anything when we would go to stores with anything breakable...I found this comic quite funny. Hope you enjoyed my blog :).
The answer to Whatzit? #8 was, “Scrambled Eggs.”
I thought it was a pretty easy one. It’s the word “eggs” scrambled four times...therefore you get “scrambled eggs.” I like scrambled eggs but I don’t think that it is my favourite way to eat eggs. I found this website that lists a few ways to eat scrambled eggs. It talks about omelettes, so I’m assuming that because you “scramble” the eggs before you cook it, it’s considered to be scrambled eggs? I’m not really sure...but here it is:
Scrambled (beaten with milk and cooked in a pan on a burner while the cook stirs)
Omelet
French Omelet (beaten with water, cooked in a pan on a burner until it’s a circle, then folded or rolled)
Puffy Omelet (made with separately beaten egg whites and yolks so it has lots of air, then cooked in a pan both on a burner and in the oven)
The next puzzle is a bit harder but I’m sure someone will guess it!
The answer to Whatzit? #7 was, “A Little White Lie.”
Instantly when I saw this puzzle I thought “white lie,” so I don’t understand why they had to add “a little.” Doesn’t really make sense right? I thought that “dark lie” was a good guess, never thought of that one. Fib is defined as “a trivial or childish lie.” I found this definition off of google...
Noun1.white lie - an unimportant lie (especially one told to be tactful or polite)
lie, prevarication - a statement that deviates from or perverts the truth
I think that many people are guilty of telling lies...especially the white lies. For example, I have said to someone, “Oh nice hair do,” without meaning it but I’ll say it anyway because I know it will make the person feel good. White lies may be okay sometimes, but I don’t understand why people have to lie about certain things...I find it to be very pointless. Anyways, on to the next puzzle!
The answer to Whatzit #6 was, “Come down to earth.”
The first thing I thought of when I saw this puzzle was the movie Down to Earth. I don’t think I have ever watched the movie but I know that Chris Rock is in it...anyone suggest that I should watch the movie? I think that was a pretty simple puzzle because the first thing you would see is the words “come” and “earth.” The word “come” is written down towards the word “earth,” therefore you get “come down to earth.” I like the next puzzle too, it is also easy. There a lot more fun to do when you actually get the answer!
