This broke my streak, but it was worth it!! My fatal error was insisting the top right was “don’t tread on me.” Doesn’t matter, this was a fantastic puzzle.
This was fantastic! My favorite in recent memory. I was frustrated, then inspired, then thrilled. Oh man, I give thanks for this puzzle. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I absolutely loved this one. Shading would have worked, but I really enjoyed the “aha!” moment I got due to the novel little yellow dots (in the app version). This felt very fresh and clever.
But … like, is it THE Gary Larsen?
Came here to see if others were perplexed by the homonyms, was not disappointed. I think what bothers me most is the Jeff Chin pointing out the homonyms without mentioning why. I mean, there are lots of guesses, but he could clear things up in a flash. Absolutely great puzzle otherwise.
Wonderful theme today! So much much-needed dopamine from that “aha” moment!
Very very clever, but way too easy. I should despair when I first look at a Friday puzzle, and seethe when I realize my only reward for solving it is an even harder Saturday one.
@Amy K Sorry. Jeff Chen. I'd love to say I was passively-aggressively making a typo on purpose, but it was really just me typing in bed without my glasses.
Oh my god. That … was amazing. I loved it!
@Catherine Patterson I think that’s a bit of a spoiler isn’t it? I didn’t think we talked about the mini here.
@Helen Wright but I thought ska was fast, and this particular song was reggae?
@Bill this was the clue I came here to talk about. D’OH!
