rsl12's 30 sec mystery #11 - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

rsl12 · 03-03-2004, 01:33 PM

When john got up, he rolled up the windowshade, brushed his teeth, groomed, put on his clothes, jumped into the shower, took off his clothes, brushed his teeth, and went to bed. His day was through.

What does john do for a living?

rsl12 · 03-03-2004, 01:35 PM

hint: it's a legal profession.

digby · 03-03-2004, 02:20 PM

Do you mean legal as in pertaining to law or as in not illegal?

rsl12 · 03-03-2004, 02:48 PM

oh, i meant as in not illegal.

TheBrit · 03-03-2004, 03:00 PM

Does he fix showers for a living, ie a plumber?

bparker805 · 03-03-2004, 04:56 PM

Sounds to me like John is a slacker 'cause he aint doin' shit!

maynard0012 · 03-03-2004, 05:52 PM

he's a groomer, like the guys who style celebrity's hair.

cait987 · 03-03-2004, 08:56 PM

Hes a weatherman IE: he goes into the "Showers" or rain for news reports then that finishes his day and he goes to bed?

hehe crazy guess I guess ;/

kulrblind · 03-04-2004, 06:36 AM

John tests rain-gear for a living!

Kadath · 03-04-2004, 08:21 AM

Is male stripper a legal profession? A bridal shower?

kazoo · 03-04-2004, 09:16 AM

John is a remodeling contractor specializing in tub & showers.

John is also living on borrowed time as the only possible intake of nourishment mentioned is toothpaste.

fhqwhgads · 03-04-2004, 03:32 PM

John is an actor, and he was performing? Filming a commercial perhaps...

VF19 · 03-04-2004, 06:35 PM

Maybe John here lives in Seattle and has to jump in the showers in order to not get wet on the way to the car.

ChickenNinja · 03-05-2004, 02:45 PM

While it's possible he runs a lighthouse (it's the most likely thing I can think of) he doesn't close the windowshade (in the description)

I dunno about the etiquette as far as posting two answers but:

It's possible he's an actor on a reality TV show. A boring one, but yeah.

JohnnyRoyale · 03-05-2004, 06:42 PM

Here's a thought: John is a proprieter of a mortuary. He was preparing a body, before going to bed?

mastboyx · 03-06-2004, 10:54 AM

he is a night guard right? one of those guys who work at night...

cait987 · 03-17-2004, 04:23 PM

Bump, just curious we ever gonna get a answer for this one? I wanna know what the answer was ;/

rsl12 · 03-17-2004, 06:48 PM

won't answer until someone gets it

ChickenNinja · 03-19-2004, 05:13 PM

You could give another hint . . .

John is a professional racehorse. His owner brushes his teeth to make him look good when on show, his "clothes" are his showjumping jockey stuff, "jumping into the shower" involves jumping over fences/hedges etc into the water pits, causing a 'shower of water'.

I'm not too sure about the "rolled up the windowshade" but this could refer to the horse box or the top half of the stable door somehow. I'm not into horse racing so don't know too many details of exactly the patterns but it's worth a shot, and this thread has been around for a long time!

Am I even warm?

Grimlok · 04-05-2004, 02:09 PM

30 Second Mysterys suck!

He's obviously a Photographer.

cowudders14 · 04-07-2004, 01:37 PM

Ok, one clue please:
Is John Human? I think not, but I'm not sure what he is...

This would at least help!

fhqwhgads · 04-08-2004, 09:02 AM

He's a male stripper. He "jumps into the shower" (like a bachelorette party) and takes of his clothes.

Who else would enter the shower first and then take off their clothes??

That sounds somewhat similar to my suggestion:
