0 plainglazed Posted June 6, 2009 Report Share Posted June 6, 2009 Being stuck inside of one that's not responding to you would give a neat meaning to needing a turn of fate to get out. I'm not sure how it would be bucktoothed, though. yeah, was pushing that part, hoping just those two big doors but they'd be more gap than buck toothed. still churning, maybe will get lucky?

0 plasmid Posted June 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2009 Are you a cartoon character, like Bugs Bunny?I vaguely remember seeing an episode with him dressed up as a cop, but don't see how he could fit with the "got in board" clue. As for the more general category, I'm not a toon. Someone as popular as Bugs I might write a riddle about, but most others would require too much esoteric knowledge for me to consider very sporting.

Question
plasmid
I'm a dumbbell you can't lift
So you won't get the best of me
You're my captive, catch my drift?
A bucktoothed guard, I'll hold your key
I've got in board, but there's no doubt
I've certainly not been subdued
Fighting me won't get you out
'cause tougher jams I've gotten through
What you need's a turn of fate
Or card: get out of jail free
If you want to cross my gate
And once again the blue sky see
