R6: Items- Discussion and Help
Good to know the Rabbit will be answered as you never know what you may find in a book,lol(MILEY CYRUS). Damn that girl is on something.
Yep - Disney kid star syndrome....
We just lost a Disney kid to suicide last week didn't we? The guy from Rizzoli and Iles?
Sheila wrote: "We just lost a Disney kid to suicide last week didn't we?"Yes - it's so sad. Not a show my kids watched so I never saw it. I think I saw him in something else though recently - I don't remember what.

Oh my. I reallyt need to read this book. I have it I just haven't made time for it. I guess I know what I'll be reading for rabbit.
Yes, real or fake, stuffed or vibrating it'll work.
Sheila wrote: "We just lost a Disney kid to suicide last week didn't we? The guy from Rizzoli and Iles?"I hadn't heard that, I never watched that show either. I am so glad my girl has moved on beyond the Hanna Montana obsession.
Costume jewelry? - for costumebillboards every hundred feet or so advertising gambling on Indian reservations - for native American
Costume: "She was dressed in her Hockey gear"OR “I love you, too, Ma. Even when you’re dressed like a high-priced hooker.”
Costume jewelry - no since it is a main stream fashion trend not really dressing up as something else.
I would take Indian reservation for American Indian.
Hockey gear doesn't seem like a costume, but more a uniform. But remembering back to my days of working at an amusement park our uniforms there were called costumes. So it isn't really what I had in mind but I'd take a complete uniform as a costume.
I am inclined to say no to the hooker, but my husband argued in your favor , " that is her uniform" . So I'd take it in that context, because it mentioned she was dressed as one. If it said, "there were hookers on the corner" I would say no.

So I'd take it in that context, because it mentioned she was dressed as one. If it said, "there..."I respectfully disagree with husband. Hookers have no "uniform or common attire". High heel shoes, boots, short skirts are every where I go.
The biggest hookers I know, are surburbia moms (LMAO) and they look regular
So then maybe those moms ripped off the "hooker look"...maybe hookers should have a new standard uniform...I think it counts tho! :)
LOL!! Settle girls!! Im not concerned one way or the other, How do you fel about this one?
A hint of jealousy burns in my heart. When I was younger, I dreamt of going to prom and wearing a
pretty dress with lots of sparkles on it. I even wanted a tiara, which seems silly now
And then there's this...the costume and guitar changes,
OR
People dressed
in simple, almost period costume milled about, riding horses
OR
“When we played dress-up tonight before dinner, she let me be the princess and she
was my lady-in-waiting.”
10. King A male sovereign. Could be the use of the word king as in King Clarkson or just a reference to Henry the 8th. Could be name or earned title such as "King of Rock" or Martin Luther King. Would a sheikh work? He is a male sovereign after all :)

Every year my son comes home to tell me what was said - usually more about girl attire and I always think - really you should be addressing this to the parents because at that age who takes the kid shopping. Oh but then the principal might have to tell the parents "They can't come to school dressed like you" while pointing to a few in the audience. Probably wouldn't go over well but I would LMAO.
My son also tells me all the girls that dress "that way" are b*tches... then he looks at me guilty and apologizes for his language and says "but it's true!"

I think no. It is more dressed up than a costume.

Both would work.

If sheikh is used in context to describe a male ruler of a large area then yes. By definition it could be just an elder man or a tribal leader and those situations wouldn't work.
Melissa, I also blame clothing designers. Having a pre-teen girl myself I know we struggled this year to find school appropriate shorts. A lot of the other girls her age wear short-shorts, the school is ok with it. I am not. It was hard to find shorts her size that were long enough. I ended up going to a thrift store, buying jeans, and making cuttoffs that we added pretty trim to. I know a lot of parents arn't going to go through that much trouble, they are just going to buy what the stores are selling. Manufacturers need to realize that just because it is cute in a womens or juniors size it should not be made in a girls size 12.
Sheila wrote: "Would pizza be considered junk food?"Depending on the type it could be a yes or no. To be consistent I will go with yes, most of them are.
Great so now I've gotten approval for a pizza and a margarita. Sounds like dinner! Now if I could just find a costume to wear to dinner, haha

What was said was "shorts should not show butt cheeks" among other things.
My daughter is 11 just starting 6th grade and thank God still likes wearing skirts. I was able to find 3 different pairs of long style jean shorts for her but I can tell this is going to get harder as she gets older. It also helps that she is shorter. I'm sure I'll end up doing what you did as well. I know I won't buy short shorts for her. I wish there were some role models for girls who actually dress cute and respectfully without the need to show everything.

YAY!! Finally! Thanks Dawn.

Another one for you Dawn..."“Your father is dressed up as a Crocodile
Dundee,”"??

Definitely a costume.
Jennifer ♔Princess Penguin♔ wrote: "Would shadow work for silhouette?"In the right context. A silhouette is more about the outline of the shape. So if it is something like, "I could see the distinct outline in the shadows of a cat" then yes. But something like, " The shadow crossed over me as I lay in the sun" then no. It should imply you can see the whole outline.
how about warrior for soldier?Are variations on moon ok (moonlight, etc)?
what about sunlight/sunshine?
also camp what about variations (i.e. camping, camper, campground)
and what about child/children for baby

Thanks!
I can't wait to get started. Come on Friday! And Mr. R. --- Remember who your friends are please!
A couple more for you Dawn......Gold.. Pretty golden lights oR golden Hair
Rabbit... Rabbit hole? as like Alice fell down
Snow..."Well aren't you just a special snowflake"
Leaf.. Large leafy plants
Ball.. Exploded like a cannonball
Gift.. gift shop
Silhouette...Face shadowed by the beret OR their lights cast shimmering shadows as they stopped
Firework.. Taking out the light in a shower of fireworks OR Firecracker
Thanks!
Kathy. The first 6 are fine no questions. Silhouette neither of those would work because they don't mention the outline of the shadow.
To me personally Fireworks and Firecrackers are different things, but for the purpose of this challenge I think they are close enough to be counted together. So I will take firecrackers too.
Pat, Warrior would work in the right situation. I think my defining point would be a soldier fights to protect his country, kingdom, clan etc. It wouldn't just be any fighter, they would need to be pledged to their homeland. Does that make sense?
Yes I'll take moonlight.
The variations of camp are a bit iffy. Most likely I would take them. I was thinking more of it as a place, so campground no problem. If it was something like, " I am going camping next week," it doesn't really imply the site. But if it were, "this is where we'll be camping for the night," gives the impression of a site. A camper is more of a trailer or non-car vehicle. If it were set up in a secluded spot I could see it working. But I know people who live out of their camper in other peoples driveways... that would not work.
The word child or children alone, no I would not take. If it said the child was less than 2 years old, I could be convinced to take it.
ok, thanks what about sunlight (opposed to sunshine)
Dawn, if when we post our book with the different items listed that we are claiming and you won't accept something for some reason, will you let us know so we can claim something else in that category before the end of the week? How will we know?
Pat wrote: "ok, thanks what about sunlight (opposed to sunshine)"Yes.
Will police car be acceptable as "emergency vehicle"?
Is this acceptable for Prayer:He was the answer to her prayers

RL happens and it isn't always possible. As I go through the threads I update points. If I won't take it yes I will let you know. If you have something you are unsure about probably a good idea to ask ahead of time. If I know ahead of time my schedule is busy I will post in the main discussion thread that I won't be around. If I get busy I may not check each team thread everyday but I'll still try to get to both discussion threads and my pm's.
