Weekly Activity 2/5 - 9/5 "Artistic Puns" - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

clavus · 05-02-2005, 07:21 PM

Where in the heck in the world is Golden?

I do not have the authority to establish a new weekly topic. I do not have any sort of a mandate. In fact, I do not even have strong support to do so at home or abroad. But, since I am an American, I’m going to unilaterally declare the topic is – "Artistic Puns"

Did I select it randomly? Sure I did. Question me and my minions will label you a traitor.

Not sure the instructor would have given me an A then...it's 'a rock and a hard place', not a 'rock and a hard thang'...

(although he didn't actually specify the saying, I never heard of the second way)

Fremen · 05-02-2005, 09:50 PM

Whew! Glad for the clarification, ng. I thought it was a big pile of poo.

clavus · 05-02-2005, 10:33 PM

This wasn't supposed to see the light of day until next week, but I'll give y'all a sneak preview -

ngdawg · 05-03-2005, 09:47 AM

You would, Fremen...
At any rate, 'pun' being the operative word here, I think I have a better idea:

Nice speeding snail...

Dizzet · 05-03-2005, 10:19 PM

Serius what does this weeks topic mean???

clavus · 05-04-2005, 08:38 AM

Shit. Is this going to be one of those times where I try to be cool and explain some esoteric american thing to a non-american, only to feel like an ass later? Probably.

A pun is a play on words. For instance ngdawg's first picture is "caught between a rock and a hard place." Maybe that is an American expression exclusively. His second picture is "escarcot" or, in English "S CAR GO. Get it?

ngdawg · 05-04-2005, 09:00 AM

His??

Ya don't get to Ex much do, ya? I'm a

clavus · 05-04-2005, 09:11 AM

See, I KNEW I'd look like an ass. I just didn't know how I would go about it.

Sorry.

Charlatan · 05-04-2005, 09:13 AM

not to make matters worse but it's spelled escargot...

...sorry couldn't resist.

I would never be able to be a mod...I'd just go around fixing spelling and grammar in everyone's posts...

clavus · 05-04-2005, 12:18 PM

My Grammar doesn't need to be fixed. She's so old, I seriously doubt she'll get knocked up.

doodlebird · 05-04-2005, 06:58 PM

clavus - *groan* - the granny joke...

"clavus' head explodes. Ok, not a pun really....or is it?

Man, Clavus, I can't believe you picked this over 'Mom'.

I was going to print one of these out and give it to my mom. How is she going to react when I give her a card with an escargot on it?

j/k

clavus · 05-06-2005, 09:48 AM

suggestion for next week:

Mom

Don't know if this will fly here or not, since this is more in the nature of a photoshop than an artwork.
