I for one was truly delighted to (finally) switch my S for M and learn a new word! Why do we need to grumble about the puzzle’s creator and editors, when we could simple acknowledge something well-played?
It was so subtle that I filled the entire puzzle in 25 mins without understanding the theme….then didn’t have enough patience to spell out the circled letters. Thanks for the explanation!
Wow did I love this puzzle. And at 12 mins and 35 seconds I was more than 22 mins faster than my Friday average. What a great way to head into the weekend.
This was a sweet Sunday solve. Loved the musical theme and even learned some great pop culture trivia (Ice, Ice Baby!)
@Steve L agree! I had ice/ittar and it turned out to be the one section holding me back from solving the puzzle. I knew attar was more likely but had convinced myself that ice was clever: Ice can’t be returned because it will have melted 🙃 to my fellow ice/ittar believers: Relax- It’s a Puzzle!
@JohnWM so many reasons to love your comment. Yoink? Really? Yes, I googled to check her name too.
@Rahul, agreed- i did this in less than half my average time. But shady undertones and classic rock were delicious!
@Chet 🤯 🎉 #lifegoals
Why did Simeon have to wait for over a year to have this shiny gem of a puzzle published? I was relieved not to have to do the Roman numeral math, thanks to helpful cross fills. Loved all the pop culture references, old and new.
@Rrose Selavy me too!
@Chris agree- 6:09 for me!
@Steve L thank you for giving me the punny reading of 41 across! 28 minutes longer than my average Tuesday…
@Ken this is the one that is stumping me at 9:50 pm! Argh may need to break my rule and google it…..
