My answer was u and r are misplaced.
I though of "U R not where you should be" and " U R lost"...close but no cigar! Good one!
Good teaser!! Really liked it At first I thought it was a typo, but then it clicked Great job!!

Good Job Cnmne!
very funny
Dastardly. I was on the right lines but didn't get it. Very clever.
PRETTY GOOD LOL
So simple
The only ones out of order, my good sir, are the South African Yellow-Bellied Sapsuckers, who no doubt could have solved this riddle with ease. Even though they don't speak English.
Hello:
I think some teasers get too much praise. U and R have changed places and out of it comes "you are out of order".
You know I think I should boast of myself. Sometime your teasers make me look like I am a genius.
Thank you for giving me this nice feeling. Though I am just a little brain. quack - quack

I thought it was "you are out of line" which is close enough that I feel like I got it clever rebus..thanks
I thought it was "switcheroo" (switch r-u) as in "the old switcheroo! Oh, well. I like your answer better. Good going
I saw it, but I didn't get it. But I like it!
LamaHumpa is developing a pattern. I bet I could write some software to predict what he does next.
cute. nevr got it but &twas fun tryin.
I almost got it.....almost but not quite....
loved this I'm challenged I guessed R U messed up! I am! smile Really enjoyed it.
Clever
i thought it was like "you are switched" or something. but i still liked it good one!
This one does present several appropriate options. I jumped to "U R out of place." I REALLY like Arghonaut's (sp?) "switcheroo"!
woooooooooooooooooooooooooow
Nice. Good job!!
Nice. Good job!!
I love this! lol I got "u r confused , but urs is way better (obviously, cuz its the answer ... great teaser!
Didn't know what a rebus was; still don't. Have to look that up.
I thought it was "rusty on the alphabet"(), because R, U, S, and T were mixed up.
Easy as ABC!!!!!!!
Sorry; didn't like it. Extremely forced.
Sorry; didn't like it. Extremely forced.
It seems like this one could have been any number of things I was thinking how clever all the wrong answers were I especially liked switcheroo, though my answer was the slightly more ordinary you are mixed up.
um kinda boring i like the riddle ones better
I agree w/ "Ntaliesen" it cud hav been a # of thngs bt it ws funny 2 see all the possiblilities. I thght it ws a ? somthng like "R U bckwrd" or mybe "U R bckwrds". I ws close, bt not quite bt it ws still fun. luv'd the rubus keep up the gud wrk.
um kinda boring i like the riddle ones better
Sometimes you have to look closely at what's being shown, or said.
I liked the teaser. Somethings that appear simple, really require you to apply a little brain action.
Okay, I get the feeling that Llama-lover makes those ridiculous comments just to rile people up. I don't think he really means half of what he says. If that's the case, I say "Well done!" I like people who rock the boat...
Oh!!! NOW I GET IT!!!!
Made me think of you are mixed up
I thought it was "Are you backwards?"
you are the most consistantly enjoyable submitter. I like your language items a lot. Keep it up
Hehe... I thought it was going to be Noel (No L) again, but this was a new version of an alphabet teaser that I hadn't seen before. Good job!
?????? R U OUT OF LINE?
R U OUT OF PLACE?
????????????
R U OUT OF PLACE?
????????????
Nice, and my favorite kind of teaser
I like the alternative answers people came up with too
I like the alternative answers people came up with too
It was good, but a little too easy.
Good but I didn't get it
Great teaser! I got it quite easily, but I would argue that anyone who answered YOU ARE OUT OF LINE was also correct. I even liked SWITHEROO!
i got it *woohoo* great teaser!!
peace out!
peace out!
At first I thought the answer was r u gone?
Then I thought it was r u missing? Fun.
Then I thought it was r u missing? Fun.
The answer could also have been "You are in the wrong place," neh?
I got it! Yes!! Great rebus!
nice!
I thought it was, LETTERS ARE AFTER YOU (R after U), but I knew that didn't make much sense. I like yours better. Good teaser.
this one was good!!! ya really good im used to the space bar
I thought it was a little easy. But preaty clever!! Most people would've missed that!
cute :]
Clever.....I liked it!!
Real Cute I missed it tho` LOL
I WOULD HATE TO SUMIT A TEASER ON HERE BECAUSE OF ALL THE CRITICAL REMARKS THAT ARE MADE.THE TEASER WAS VERY GOOD EVEN THOUGH I DIDN'T GET IT,I STILL LIKED IT.
I could tell it was one f those types of puzzles and i wound the mistack but just could not get it
That one was OKAY but give me a little bit harder ones next time. But good job.
This I missed again! I better learn to look at what is in front of me. I really liked this one . Thanks.
I said U R out of order. I still think I win though
Tricky.
ooh shoot! i got that one! (well actually it was u r mixed up but same thingg) =]
I'll count myself as being "close", as should most of the people who provided alternatives above.
I guessed: "U R screwed up!"
I guessed: "U R screwed up!"
I loved that! It's actually one with the alphabet I've never heard before! Great Job!
A good one! I first thought it was 'Are you mixed up?', and then felt this wasnt the right answer!
Good one, lol
i got the same thing as paul, but i liked it anyway! good thinking!
Maybe your answer was U R out of order. My answer was U R turned around. Same difference? Good one any howwhatever the answer is.
Great teaser and ?easy-enough? to confuse anyone??.....LOL WTG! I loved it!
very easy, but good teaser!
I thought it was hard, because I didn't get it.
But, it is still a good teaser!
Very clever.
But, it is still a good teaser!
Very clever.
What about "U R disorderly around the street [ST]?" I think the given solution is probably best, though it's always fun to try alternatives.
UR wrong was my answer.
I thought U R mixed up. Cool!
I came up with U R mixed up too...close! Clever teaser!
Didn't even come close on this one!!!
I guess there were a lot of answers for this. I got "where r u?"
Haha I came up with 'are you out of place?' Not a million miles away
I liked it!
I liked it!
I was close also. I said,"u are out of line." I have heard the expression before so thought that was it. Good one and I feel good about my answer.
Nice! It was impossible, though!
A lot of possible answers
Also: UR another old repeated teaser
Also: UR another old repeated teaser
My first thought was the statement...
U R not where U R supposed to be.
Then as a question...
R U where U R supposed to be?
U R not where U R supposed to be.
Then as a question...
R U where U R supposed to be?
Sorry thought it was dumb. Didn't like it at all.
Pretty cool!!!
excellent
I thought there could be many variations to the answer, but I got it exactly.
I had where are you?
I thought UR wrong! Well I guess I was right. ;-)
U R not like others. U R not the same
Enjoyed the teaser. Fun and easy. Solved it pretty quickly. Love rebus puzzles. Keep them coming.
"place" also came to mine as in being out of.
Good teaser. I came up with the answer pretty quickly, but thought a while longer to see if there was another possible answer before reading the solution.
Nice one!
I had: U R mixed up, like some others.
Great fun teaser, thanks!
