I’m sorry, no, just no.
No animation for me ;(
So was this one of those cross promotional deals with The Onion? Rita Ora’s Agent Scores Singer Another Prime Crossword Puzzle Placement <a href="https://theonion.com/rita-oras-agent-scores-singer-another-prime-crossword-puzzle-placement" target="_blank">https://theonion.com/rita-oras-agent-scores-singer-another-prime-crossword-puzzle-placement</a>/
Oh gee, this one was pretty clever.
Don’t you think it’s a bit too much to ask? Language skills *and* math?
Adding ZARF to my XWord lexicon.
Well that was a fun one! Thanks!
Push up targets for short? The NYTs puzzle has become less prudish over time but surely the first thing that popped into my mind wasn’t correct.
@Steve L. No wonder the NSA didn’t hire me.
I was a little annoyed at the Chinese surname but the crossings were grokable. All in all, a satisfying Saturday puzzle.
On my iPhone I had to take a screenshot and enlarge the pic to see the 12 men were scowling in ‘anger’
I was prepared to be annoyed till the “oh, that’s the trick” moment.
Oh, man, this was a hard one. Got some critical help from my wife and managed to suss it out
Okay. It was really good.
I’ve been XL so long that I don’t think I ever saw an XS tag. Oh well, it was fun
@Jimmy Well, not *terribly* humble.
Trivial beef: I can’t say I’ve *never* sipped my OJ from a cup but 99% of the time I’ve used a glass.
I caught on to the trick fairly quickly but burned too much time trying to come up with something other than a one square rebus. Uh lesse… y = mx b is the equation for a straight line… uh … Took a cup of coffee to finally do the forehead slap. Fun puzzle. Hats off to the constructor.
@R.J. Smith For me it was thinking that pirates greet each other with YAR rather than ARR.
Once again please explain the acceptable way to answer rebus answers. Across first, slash, down or down, slash, across or either with no slash.
@HeathieJ Sure they’re accepting puzzles from TC suburbs, but what about Mpls and St Paul themselves?
@Caro Yep, that was the case
@Caro Having given it a moment’s thought they might have been riffing on my Italian looking surname. Actually it’s Polish
@Hattie It’s a one square rebus. EQUALS goes in the slot.
