Hink Pink

Have you ever heard of a game called Hink Pink? It is a rhyming game. Jean Jean, Ellie and I went to Mt Rainier for an overnight near Paradise. And it was. Paradise, that is. It was also really Mt Rainier, stupidly names after a friend of a fellow who happened to be sailing by one afternoon in 1792.

Any ol’ how, on the drive in, we played Make Me A Rhyme in Double Quick Time, and Hink Pink. The latter was a bit hard for Ellie, but she caught on. An example would be, “What do ya call an Obese Feline” The answer would be, “Fat Cat”

Some of the clues were somewhat obscure. Are you ready? The answers are below the pretty pirated picture of Mt Rainier, whose proper name is Mt Tahoma, by the way. Please, all you people who read this, make a suggestion for a Hink Pink.

What do you call a homosexual ruminant?

What do you call a promiscuous ruminant?

What do you call an inexpensive SUV?

How about a true fir with an unfortunate bite?

How about a perfect night sleep?

And one especially for Ellie: What do you call a bolder and a foot coat?
