I started thinking about Whatzits (or Dingbats - sometimes also called rebuses) today. It started when I ran across the one in http://webpbn.com/24522 . I thought about whether there was any way to make these without them being boring text puzzles. After all they are nothing but text.

I will leave it to you whether this worked.

Nope, try again.

It may help to back up a bit. ;)

You're going in the right direction, marjorie. Thomas and travis, not so much.

The title has a hint in it.

So close! Looking on the web, it seems to be more of a britishism now, though it may or may not have started in the US.
