Huh? Those grey squares totally threw me off. That puzzle took forever even with help. Definitely NOT a fun puzzle.
So, let me see if I have this right. I don't even know how to say it: There's no meaning behind the animals; they're not necessarily attracted in any way, right? Like I mean, an ANT is not attracted to a DOG, right? An OWL has no relation to a GNU, right? They're just animals. Am I making any sense? lol, sorry. It was cute but it doesn't make any sense. Is it supposed to?
@Mitchell You should try the very first puzzle the times created. Talk about obscure clues and answers. I thought it would be fun to try it, nope.
Very hard puzzle today, as usually a Saturday puzzle is. I actually got HOMECOOK on my own as a total guess! But everything else was pretty tough. What is a YES? (the envelope). I skimmed the comments and didn't see it. And lol, SHORTA? Ohhhhh man, I got it from the crosses but I thought there has to be a better clue just for that!
Now I know why people avoid me! I smell bad! (I don't want puzzles to be super easy but I kinda want them to make sense. That. Made. No. Sense. And was not fun at all. Sorry Mr. Ewbanks)
Neato! (I solved the puzzle but never figured out the gimmick! Had to come here to find out what it was. But it seems I am not alone in completely missing it) Fun puzzle tho.
Fun little puzzle! Um, may I axe (sic)? Am I incorrect in thinking that some Jewish believers do not write the name of "God"? I don't know where I got the idea that they write something like G-d. But because of that, that would mean they couldn't get a puzzle completion, right? I'm not trying to agitate anyone, I'm just curious. What do they do? Happy Hanukkah and Happy New Year to all!
Wow! That was impressive. (I got all the left sides but couldn't figure out the right sides without cheating! Oh well. I always forget to think OUTSIDE the box with your puzzles!) Very clever!
Cameo?! I had NO IDEA that's what those pieces of jewelry were called. I don't think I've ever seen that before. Interesting. Fun puzzle!
Whoa! One Tough Tuesday!
@Tim Interestingly, that was one of the reasons we broke away from King George.
@Momerlyn Thanks for replying! I agree with your last sentence! In today's puzzle, one answer was OHGOD. I imagine a lot of Jewish people do the crossword. How do they get around filling that in to complete the puzzle, if they're not allowed to write G O D?
Man, I blew through that one in record time! (Did they get this puzzle mixed up with the one yesterday? That one should have been a Thur puzzle! Lol!) 🫤
@Mr Dave Yeah, but what region??? (I'm in the South, and I ain't never said that)
@Mean Old Lady It's hard to specify a gender when nobody knows how many there are.
@cmon LOL, totally agree!
@Deanna ONLY 2554??? Geez!
@AL AGREED!!! I get it. They want more money. But I don't HAVE any family that wants to do the puzzle! I wish they would take it away!
@BarbK Don't let the nurse know that you don't know what day it is when she asks you the Medicare questions! 😄
Pretty cute! I told my boss I was feeling ISLE yesterday. He looked at me funny. That was strange. He don't know English?
@Matt Agreed! But having seen that very same thing in an older puzzle, I knew that, yep, that's what they're looking for.
@Francis WOW! Outstanding! Yeah, I had no idea why they were opposites but your reasoning sounds reasonable! Are you a Lawyer by trade? Very good. Thanks!
@Andrzej Lol! You should look up "head cheese" in the Urban Dictionary!
@Siamese A board you ride on, in the sea.
TIL that ILL is pronounced like AISLE. Hmm, interesting. Or is it the other way around? You think maybe Alexa will know?
@Rich in Atlanta DOH! (yep, I get it now...lol)
@Barry Ancona Ahhh, okay, thanks! (That's still a stretch...hmm)
@Paul Yep, I saw the magnets but had no idea why these particular animals were opposites being attracted to each other until Francis cleared it up for me.
@Jan Was that a result of dumbing down the English language? Like omitting the word "What"? And just saying "The EFF?!"
@Andrzej I cannot imagine trying to do these puzzles as a foreigner! Good on you! It's interesting to go back in time to work the puzzles. I went back to the very first one they created and could not do it. I had no idea what the clues were!😄
@Xword Junkie Ahhhh, good! I'm glad I searched these comments! It's happening to me too! I thought my computer was screwing up! I thought I had to hit the space bar or tab or something to make it understand that all the blanks were filled in! Lol! Thanks!
