spoonerism shuffle

[Fire Queen]

hello fools. i have cooked up a wicked game for you to enjoy. you are probably familiar with the concept of a spoonerism even if you may not know it by that name. it’s where you goof up a phrase by switching the first sounds of two words. a famous one:

Pobody’s Nerfect!

you catch my drift. so here is the conceit of this game. i will give you a horrid ai “art” image that represents a spoonerism. you will have to reverse engineer the solution to “solve it.” an example for your addled mind:


awful! i hate it! but clearly my guy is taking a bite out of a sickle made out of rice. he is biting his rice sickle. so the solution here is “riding my bicycle!” one point to me.

everyone understand? no? great! i will be providing hints completely arbitrarily and at my own discretion. there will be a leaderboard and the first person to so and so number will get a badge or something.

i have made the first round extremely stupid and difficult. good luck!

You said badge. I'm in.

Now to wrack my brain on this one.

 

[Fire Queen]

the only hint so far is that the stein should say “pronouns” but yknow ai gon ai

That's good to know because I had to Google "Pregnoms" which is ironically a thing.

 

[dimmerwit]

I did guess it was pronouns, but after staring at the image for a good half hour my brain has turned to jelly.

 

[canadaguy]

These are way easier when I'm doing cryptics

 

[Fire Queen]

the next hint is that the drink in the stein is mead

 

[Smacktard]

I... I think I got it....
Mince meat pie
from:
Prince mead I (Pronoun)

 

[Fire Queen]

ooh that’s actually pretty solid. but unfortunately it’s nowhere near close. however i’ll shell out another hint for your trouble: he’s a king and not a prince

 

[Jon]

Ya know... usually people go easy to hard on these

 

[Jon]

Fairly certain one of the words is weed. For we (pronoun) and mead.

I sense arrows and king come into play too, but my head hurts now.

 

[Jawneh]

I just see someone enjoying their stein of gender fluid and enjoying themselves.

Smoking weed --> woke king's mead

ding ding ding! you’ve got king and you’ve got meat. specifically the king’s mead. now there’s just one part missing…

(that said, glad you got the weed part from the pronouns but that wasn’t my intent. no, the pronouns mug is a hint for the last word…

actually as i was posting this canadaguy got it!!! congrats now i have to think of another one

 

[canadaguy]

Did woke also confuse the AI and make him sleeping?

I was stuck on the sleeping forever

edit: I'm assuming woke was where the pronouns bit came from too?

this was my main intent lol but i wasn’t sure if it would be clear enough so i adjusted the prompt to have him be waking up as another hint

i’ve cooked up our next one and boy is it bad!


the hint for this one is that those aren’t flies. they are meant to be another small pest of an insect

I deserve a half point for that

First thing that comes to mind is gnat cap -> cat nap

Hah, I thought the same thing but thought that'd be too obvious. I hope it's right
