Dizzy (adj)

The state of mind when one rotates oneself around, loses their bearings and the world starts spinning. Such a sensation can cause one to fall over, vomit, or fall down a stormwater drain. The broom game is a classic amongst uni students, where students spin around a number of times while holding a broomstick vertically and looking up to the top of the handle. Once the spinning is over, the contestant is to throw the broom on the ground and step over it. Those successful in the game receive a loud cheer from onlooking students, whereas those who fail trip over the broom, and win a trip to hospital via a broken window and a nasty fall. A woman was arrested in Sale, Victoria last week after various upset primary school students had reported the offender had been targeting swingsets in the area and spun the children using them. The kids ended up ravelled in the chains, which then unravelled and so forth. One child reportedly was wound up and down for four hours. The arrested woman revealed to officers that she was just trying to ‘punk’ the children, however the woman was charged once police ruled that ‘punking’ was so 2004. Pop rapper Dizzee Rascal gained his name from many years spent stealing wheelie chairs from office suppliers and riding them around shopping centres. His chair adventures were one day ground to a halt when he was pushed and locked in an elevator by a disgruntled security guard. Try wheeling yourself out of that one, Dizzee. News out of Disneyland last week included an item about sixteen year-old Britney Harrison who decided to ride the merry-go-round for eight hours straight. Despite Mickey & Minnie’s silent pleading, Britney refused to leave her plastic horse, believing it to have the ability to run off the merry-go-round should she spend enough time riding it. Unfortunately for Britney, she was escorted off the horse by a very stern Goofy and has since been unable to stop walking in circles. Obviously this circular walking technique isn’t very successful for getting places. The inventor of turnip chips was reportedly suffering regular dizzy spells upon creating the food. How ironic that the chip has been inflicting the same ill on its consumers ever since.
