is it a kind of raw meat?

I know sunglass's for a polly pocket doll.
how bout another hint
sdmaker
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 21:59
hehe, i thought this pic might stir things up.
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 22:22
It's got green slime coming out the bottom, the front looks like some sort of torn up internal organ, the thing looks like it's wearing blood colored sunglasses but you say it's used in the morning...
What do you do but brush your teeth, wash and change clothes? You also shave but its certainly not a razer unless it was used by Norman Bates!
I think a better hint is needed.
sdmaker
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 22:31
lol, the green is not part of the object. here is a slightly bigger pic, maybe it along with the clues will help you out. also look for hidden clues in my posts.
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 22:37
Looks like someone got a big fat bloody nose!
OK, you say it's used in the morning and stirs things up. I'd say some sort of straw that was melted because they stirred the coffee while it was too hot!
sdmaker
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 22:39
yup, its a coffee stir straw, but its not melted from being used, thats the way they look were they are cut. your up.
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 22:40
Damn! never would have guessed that without the hints!
Mike6158
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 22:42
THAT was a cool photo :)
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 22:46
OK, this may be too easy but I have to grab an old picture too do this as I simply have no fresh ideas
Mike6158
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 22:50
Some kind of cleaning brush?
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 22:51
Don't know, now that I look at it, might not be so easy after all.
Not a cleaning brush.
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 22:55
OK, one hint. Your parent may have introduced this to you while you were young and curious.
sdmaker
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 22:57
one of those feather duster things
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 22:59
Nope. LOL, is that what your parents showed you? How to clean?
sdmaker
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:00
heck i can barely remember yesterday, let alone what my parents showed me when i was a kid, hehe.
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:02
Actually, my parents never mentioned this to me. I learned it from my uncle. Not that he actually showed it to me, he just explained what it was being I never heard about it before.
Mike6158
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:02
Hair brush? with hair stuck in it?
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:08
Nope! And it has nothing to do with personal hygiene. In fact it's nothing you could ever use for anything except to just let it alone and it's job will get done.
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:10
And if you accidentally sit on this it might hurt!

if i got it right someone else jump in i check this rarely
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:12
No, and you are no where near the right answer but when talking about flowers you are getting close.

RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:15
Nope
RandyMN

cactus
When you were young and curious did your parents show you a cactus?
sdmaker
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:24
sure did
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:24
Actually it's pretty easy if you let your mind not be so focused on the small part but look at the picture as just one small part of nature.
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:26
And also the part of how nature reproduces itself.
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:28
sure did
You want to share the story?
sdmaker
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:30
a bee. if i am right, some one else post a pic, i am going to bed.
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:30
From all these hints I'm amazed no one has guessed it! I practically gave the answer away! Maybe someone knows but just doesn't want to say as it's just too easy!
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:32
a bee. if i am right, some one else post a pic, i am going to bed.
Damn, the guy got it!
sdmaker
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:32
You want to share the story?
not really much of a story, seen one in a store and asked what it was.
sdmaker
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:32
Damn, the guy got it!
i actually knew what it was after a few clues, just wanted to give someone else the chance to post.
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:35
i actually knew what it was after a few clues, just wanted to give someone else the chance to post.
So you made me give all those clues for nothing? It's no easy chore thinking up clues you know...
I bet the one about the birds and bee's gave it away...
RandyMN
11th of February 2006 (Sat), 23:39
I guess the next one's up to whoever wants to go for it.

You have confused us Vision Eyez! Half of us think it's the main white part and the other half think it's the small black corner that we are supposed to be guessing at. Which is it?:rolleyes:

turnerzdad - nope but I can see how it can be thought of that, it is NOT an article of clothing.
Since this seems to be pretty tough ill give some more clues as time goes on for now here is one.
The main colours this object comes in is this colour and black.

Ovens come in all colors, this one comes only in this color(looks grey) or black. Bigger than a newspaper, a newpaper could fit inside and never come out, and 9 out of 10 people have seen or used it. So what fits all these categories?
Picture doesn't say much that's why I haven't even had enough of a clue to guess. Although it looks like a knob to the right.

You can do anything you want. Apparently there are more members guessing and less of those who can contribute, so I'd say if you can post a shot then people are going to look, just as I do. That's the fun part! That's why so many say, "If I'm right then someone else go."
We have many members that enjoy this game so if the posting of shots dies out, then so will the game.
I say keep the game going and who cares if you take a freebie.
RandyMN
16th of February 2006 (Thu), 17:36
Oh, but that last one you took with the grill was way too tough! Give some better insight so we can at least guess at what the shot is all about. Please include some three dimensional characteristics to the shot so we can picture it.
