Ruby Rebus! Part Deux
07 Apr 2014
It’s been ~18 months since my first Ruby Rebus challenge and, frankly, that’s just too long to ask y’alls nerds to wait. Wait no more! I’ve dreamt up 15 brand spankin’ new rebuses1 for your guessing pleasure.
Last round I only picked movies from IMDB’s Top 250 list. This time the tie that binds these movies is that I’ve seen them and I like them.
The other big change this time around is instant gratification. Instead of a follow-up post with the answers, just click the button under each rebus once you’ve figured it out (or given up)! Enough intro,
Rebus #1
throw :me if person.is_a? ConMan
Rebus #2
expect(Game).to receive(:play)
Rebus #3
[].method :each
Rebus #4
"CATCGTAATGACGGCCT".dup
Rebus #5
[NoMethodError, NameError]
Rebus #6
[Float.instance_method(:ceil), Float.instance_method(:floor)]
Rebus #7
Actor = Struct.new :movie, :first_name
Actor.new "Argo", "John"
Actor.new "Monsters, Inc.", "John"
Actor.new "The Big Lebowski", "John"
Rebus #8
class Payment
delegate :give, to: :other
end
Rebus #9
class Object
def initialize
@afraid = true
end
end
Rebus #10
%i(stop danger yield detour)
Rebus #11
if s == "AZ"
raise
end
Rebus #12
60.times { sleep 1 } && exit
Rebus #13
begin
[darren, judith].join
rescue
end
Rebus #14
class Time; def kill; abort; end; end
t = Time.now
t.kill
Rebus #15
"スカーレット".encode "ascii" rescue ""
Which was your favorite? Least favorite? How many of the 15 did you get right? Let me know in the comments!
