I've never hated a puzzle more than this one full stop
This felt way too easy for a Friday. However, I have felt incredibly annoyed when others remark the same on days I've struggled! So this one just happened to fit with my limited knowledge and I'll take it!
USHES? I call bs
I'm tired of the Super Mario clues that seem to appear way too frequently. Just boring. AWOL/MIA clueing was wrong. Why do they keep making this same mistake?
Would somebody please be so kind as to tell me what a summer CPA is?
@David O Selznick CERTS annoyed me, too. It wasn't candy.
@Helen Wright When I solve The Guardian cw I don't complain that the clues are too 'UK based.' You do sound old.
@Steve L My mind went straight to Formula 1 as well!
Because the puzzle accepted either letter in the rebus or both letters, it just seemed ridiculously easy. I didn't get the theme at all, I just zoomed ahead and filled in the easiest Thursday I can remember in a long time and solved it. I think it should have either required the rebus to solve or it should have been a Mon/Tues puzzle.
This felt like a true Thursday puzzle which I enjoyed. I didn't understand the theme at all and just forged ahead solving it in spite of my ignorance.
@Joya Yeah, I agree with you. If I get a typo on a Sunday, it's rare that I will spend longer than about 20 seconds scanning the giant grid to find it. I just don't have the patience and I'll give in and hit reveal...
@SteveCoz I got this but I thought it was weak.
@Marty this bothers me too. Seems like the editor's job, no? Either abbreviate a word in the clue or add 'abbr' to it. I want a hard puzzle but I want rules and I'm not psychic.
Lions sleeping in dens? Really? I mean, yeah they give birth in them and the cubs live in there for a few weeks, but this felt weak to me. Tuna oil? Ugh
@Solver I can't tell if you're joking?
Would someone be so kind as to explain to me what 43D means? I'm old enough to remember our VCR but I don't understand the clue.
@Xword Junkie The 1st theme clue annoyed me as well. It's such an easy fix on the clue to make it correct. Loved TAOOFPOOH and fondly remembered reading it.
@CCNY What are summer CPAs? I still don't get it?
@Paul Turner this happened to me on Wordle. I had a streak that was inexplicably broken when the correct answer wasn't recognized by the program for a few days. Really wrecked my stats.
I put FPH in the rebus squares and it wouldn't solve. I think that's a dirty trick.
@Norwood. Lipstick? I don't get it?
@Lea I don't get it either
@Vaer I play it every single day and got my mom addicted as well. We just play against the computer.
