Fantastic word game

[Stuart]

On the trail of life, you are going to meet all kinds of people. 🧑‍🤝‍🧑

 

[CTListener]

All kinds of people can be represented as emojis with a wide range of skin tones.

 

[WMC2006]

Tones of confusion are ringing in my ears because I did not know that Ferris wheels were named after an actual guy which is why scanman noted that 'Ferris' should be spelled with a capital F.

 

[CTListener]

A capital F as the first letter in abbreviations for agencies of the U.S. government stands for "Federal."

 

[Ed Nielson]

Federal Express, however, is a private corporation, and is not affiliated with The U.S. Government.

I should have spelled it "gubmint."😛

 

[Silkie]

The U.S. Government has all those agencies that start "department" and then under those are the capital F letter agencies.

 

[CTListener]

Agencies beginning with F are numerous, but the only one that interests most members of RadioDiscussions is the FCC.

 

[scanman1]

The FCC exists to ensure your broadcast facilities remain within specifications.

 

[dmargalotti]

Remain within specifications when servicing your motor vehicle so you don't void the warranty.

 

[CTListener]

The warranty on this game expired three years ago, so good luck getting it repaired for a reasonable price and forget about ever being able to replace lost words.

 

[Ed Nielson]

Words, when they are in great quantities and in fine print, give lawyers great joy and delight.

 

[Weiserguy]

"Great joy and delight" is a way to describe the schadenfreude you feel when your childhood bully gets whacked by a meteor.

 

[Stuart]

Whacked by a meteor would probably not be covered under my Blue Cross plan. 🪨

 

[CTListener]

My Blue Cross plan is at odds with that of the guy across the street, who erects a huge cross festooned with hundreds of bright blue lights every Christmas and Easter to show everyone just how Christian he is, at least until I complain to the proper authorities and have the thing taken down and hauled away.

To the same landfill that one day will become the permanent home of the mechanical bull.

 

[WMC2006]

Away we go with my Tuesday night contribution which comes after I've spent several minutes catching up on the day's goings-on.

How's everyone doing this evening? Nice to see Weiserguy back for two days in a row.

 

[Silkie]

The day's goings-on verbiage takes awkward to a strange level.

 

[Weiserguy]

The day's goings-on now include a shout-out from WMC2006 and a box of Zebra Cakes by the door, waiting for some child, any child, to ring the damn doorbell.

(Thanks. Some days I drop by, other days not, but I'm always amused by everyone's creativity.)

 

[Deleted member 108832]

Ring the damn doorbell of the Ranch at 3am and be prepared to outrun  bullets.

Oh, CH, why not just erect your own display? A full sized pentagram with large red LEDs should do the trick.

schadenfreude? That's likely the biggest word ever used at the Fantastic Word Game (TFWG, as the Czar prefers).

 

[dmargalotti]

Bullets were no match for Superman but if you threw an unloaded gun at him, he would duck.

 

[CTListener]

Duck sauce, as provided free of charge at Chinese takeout places, contains no duck, nor is it intended to complement duck dishes, as most such eateries don't even have duck on the menu.
