Click on the answer once and it appears. Click it again and it rolls back up.
Guess the correct definition of each word. If you pick incorrectly, you will find out what word fits the definition above it.

Sorry, you're wrong. But don't "chirp" those tires when you speed away.

You got it! Peace out.

Try again, unless you want to be "low-fi" and just lie there.
