Lame Game
Hi everyone, I'm Steve, newbie to the club. I have just been reading my way through some of your posts, and would definitely like to join the party! Allow me to introduce myself with a new game post. I call it the "Lame Game"- Each poster who answers a riddle gets to set a new one. The answers to all riddles are pairs of rhyming words.

For example:
Crooked mule = Wonky Donkey
Frightening sprite = scary fairy
Park seat for 17th century women = wench bench

Here's the first clue:

Amusing rabbit...

Brilliant! I was thinking of Kant's pants, but I think yours is better!

Best way, I think, is to get the key word in your head first, then do a mental search for a rhyming word. Then find some synonyms. Go on, give it a try
