Same sort of deal as the earlier ones, but you should post the antonym of your association...

Ok, according to Antonym.com, there is no antonym for Reindeer.

Good one, Nan. I don't suppose we have to come up with a real antonym, we could just come up with the first contrary word that comes to mind, and the next psychiatrist that wanders by can have good fun analyzing us.

Actually this game is a pretty good joke - in addition to the reindeer start, it's a game that should have an abrupt end. Example:

First post: Go.

Second post: Stop.

Next post: Go.

Next post: Stop.

Next post: Go.

Next post: Stop.

Enough already, and thanks for the teaser. Maybe I'm the only one that didn't get this until I explained it to myself. grin.gif

I guess what I was thinking was more 'do the free-association thing we've been doing in the other word games, but don't post that word, post its opposite'. So for Reindeer, the association might be Eskimo, and the opposite might be 'Polynesian'!

Geddit?

ARRRRGGGGGG my brain just exploded. Only a teacher would think up something so sadistic.

So, are we still at "Reindeer" or at " dry enemy"?

Hmm, it does seem to be flipflopping a bit. Remember, it's not just the opposite of the posted word, it's the opposite of your word assocation *to* the posted word. Like so:

Neil - I think you go from 'frowsty' to 'frosty' to it's opposite, 'sun-woman'. (/armchair analysis!)
