The ESRB disagrees with you.

Unless you were editorializing. In which case:

Not working for me; the link or Mr. 'ton's post. If the ESRB gave it a M rating, then it's a M rating. What's the whole "one step beyond?" The "TwoGirlsOneCupofHotCoffee" mode in the next game?

Lemme try some more to make up for my epic fail at humor ~~last time~~ the last eleventy billion times: MINERS & HOES.

Hang on a second, I've got one… AN UGLY CHILD.

Oh wait, I've got it now. MUSTARD-FILLED CHOCOLATE ECLAIR.

…Ugh, I give up.

Somehow, I doubt it.

The Category is: What's Going On?

The Puzzle is: PAT YOUR ZIPPER IS DOWN.

Jay Temple · « **Reply #36 on:** November 07, 2009, 11:02:47 PM »

Sadly, some of these seem more likely than
JEAN-PAUL SARTRE (person)
EID (event)
ISAAC NEWTON'S LAWS OF THERMODYNAMICS (things or title)
ATLAS SHRUGGED (title)
TBILISI or even SRI LANKA (on the map) (At least the latter is solvable as a bonus puzzle.)

Titles in the original spirit of the thread:
THE LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST
DEBBIE DOES DALLAS
WHERE THE BOYS AREN'T (For my money, this is one of the cleverer adult film rip-off titles.)
SPERMS OF ENDEARMENT
MEIN KAMPF
THE SATANIC VERSES
SICKO (though it's not inconceivable that they'd use it as just PERSON)

It's also not inconceivable to me that they'd have THE KORAN as a thing, but I doubt (and simulataneously wish) they'd put it up as THE QU'RAN.

Things:
DI_DO
VI__ATO_
C_ND_M

Thing/Event: E_E_A (I can imagine an embarassed contestant guessing this if the actual puzzle were ENEMY.)

Names:
YASIR ARAFAT
POL POT
COLONEL MUAMMAR QADDAFI
JOSEF MENGELE
DOCTOR JACK KEVORKIAN
CHUCK WOOLERY

That could've easily been a Slang bonus puzzle back in the early '90s. They loved really short bonus puzzles back then (would you believe WAX, WIG and ZOO all in the same month?).

File under "Arson, murder and jaywalking." Actually, I wouldn't entirely rule out Chuck as a puzzle; Pat has namedropped him a few times, and I would imagine that some people would know him from Lingo reruns alone. (With that in mind, has LINGO ever been a correct answer on Lingo?)
