Which Downer Am I! - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Valier · 08-04-2006, 07:19 PM

Umm well I know Harvey Danger is a band....but the other part of your question is stumping me....

Kath · 08-04-2006, 07:45 PM

The word 'umm' comes to mind. However, so does the name Sauce. The reasoning is just ... odd, so don't ask.

Diamond18 · 08-04-2006, 09:41 PM

I won't.

It's not Sauce, though.

mormegil · 08-06-2006, 05:47 PM

Is it Mark?

Harvey Danger has an album called King James Bible I believe.

Diamond18 · 08-06-2006, 06:36 PM

Nope, not Mark.

Harvey Danger, SC style with a kaboodle

SC = South Carolina

Does Kaboodle have anything to do with kaboodle.com?

Diamond18 · 08-07-2006, 08:29 PM

The first part is right, but the second isn't.

mormegil · 08-07-2006, 08:58 PM

Nirvana II???

The only downer I can see is from SC and Nirvana is obviously a band...admittedly this is a stretch but at least I'm trying here

Diamond18 · 08-08-2006, 09:52 PM

Good guess, but not the right one. This Downer isn't from South Carolina.

Diamond18 · 08-11-2006, 12:57 AM

My capacity for stumping people seems to be exceeding even morm's, so here are some rather telling hints, much as it pains me.

For the first two clues, look in people's Locations. For the last, look at people's names.

Valier · 08-11-2006, 12:58 AM

How about THE ka?

Glirdan · 08-11-2006, 07:52 AM

Hmmm, I know this is probably completely wrong, but my guess is Morm.

mormegil · 08-11-2006, 11:50 AM

I HAVE IT!!!

Kitanna

Kit (nickname) and Kaboodle

Doing the Charleston (SC) on the flagpole though I'm not sure how Harvey Danger applies but I'm sure it's either the danger of dancing on a flag pole or a reference to the band that alludes me.

Valesse · 08-11-2006, 12:37 PM

Hah! Flagpole Sitta is one of Harvey Danger's more famous songs, Morm. If that isn't it, I'm completely stumped.

Diamond18 · 08-12-2006, 12:09 AM

Yay! It is indeed Kitanna and yes, Harvey Danger is in reference to Flagpole Sitta.

You may take a turn at torturing people now, morm.

mormegil · 08-12-2006, 07:23 AM

This clue is a bit different than my normal or for that matter different than I've ever seen a clue but it still should be fun.

Find the Simpson's parody of the trampoline gag to find me

Diamond18 · 08-12-2006, 05:53 PM

D'oh. Not being a Simpsons viewer I suspect I have very little chance of understanding this. But when you say Simpsons MLD-Groundskeeper-Willie leaps to mind.

Holbytlass · 09-28-2006, 06:30 AM

Yea!! It took awhile to scroll through names.

a former chip

*I only looked at the past 7 pages so I hope this hasn't been done

mormegil · 10-01-2006, 10:19 PM

Any hints? I've looked a lot and cannot find anybody that seems to fit.

But to at least make a guess...

Sharku

Holbytlass · 10-02-2006, 03:32 AM

Not Sharku.
Hint: it's all in the name (not elvish, I can't pronounce those)

Mithalwen · 10-02-2006, 10:45 AM

excheeto?

Former is ex and I discover that cheeto is a type of crisp ("chip") ..

Holbytlass · 10-02-2006, 01:56 PM

Exactly, Mithalwen!
Ya know, I never thought about different countries using different names for things and not having cheetos. Well done.

Mithalwen · 10-03-2006, 10:36 AM

LOL it is okay - I'm multi-lingual ... though a proper Fish & Chip shop chip double fried and eaten for preferance by the sea in the open air, is a glorious thing to which "fries" didn't really compare....

The one which freaks me out is you guys calling scone-y type things biscuits. When they were served smothered with butter and honey in the Green Dragon I kept imagining all those poor little hobbits having eating disorders....
