hokie carla

I would think that is more "boo-freaking-hoo"

8:15 am

rururocks

10:06 am

Kaplan the Magne

stick with fish- less stigmatizing!

10:08 am

penquis

heading out....have a good day, everyone.....

10:08 am

MollyL

Pardon my political incorrectness. I keep forgetting about the new cancel culture.

10:08 am

MollyL

Bye Pen

10:10 am

Kaplan the Magne

It's not cancel culture or PC. It's simply being aware of stigma. This is nothing new or trendy.

10:13 am

Kaplan the Magne

You just don't conjure images from earlier centuries about catching crazy people with nets and sending them to the loony bin. It's unnecessary, and it hurts actual people.

10:18 am

Kaplan the Magne

Cancel culture is something else entirely, and is a personal choice about whether you think a predator's achievements should be dismantled because of character. It doesn't mean making fun of people with psychological difficulties.

10:20 am

Kaplan the Magne

Sorry to begin with a confrontation, but does anyone here truly NOT have a loved one who would be hurt by that image?

10:20 am

hurshy

well i agree with you kap

10:21 am

Kaplan the Magne

Well, thank you.

10:39 am

Trifioso

10:43 am

hokie carla

hurshy

re + anagram of adolescent

10:45 am

Trifioso

got the n, thank you

10:46 am

hokie carla

duh

10:47 am

Sandraf

How can you have a 4 letter word as an anagram of a 10 letter word?.

10:47 am

hokie carla

re + the anagram

10:48 am

hokie carla

and it's a 6 letter, not 10 :D

10:49 am

hokie carla

it's a regular 6 letter babblet, which is why I'm annoyed I missed it.

10:49 am

Sandraf

Just cannot get it

10:50 am

hurshy

sandraf, it is standard practice here to say anagram of "word that is a synonym of the word you actually want an anagram of"

10:50 am

hokie carla

re4/4 + 2 letters is another way to look at it

10:51 am

Trifioso

sandra, try re, the number after nine, then a vowel.

10:51 am

hokie carla

and if you want to know the def, it's chemistry - a crystalline hydrocarbon from resins

10:51 am

Sandraf

TYVM. Fireworks!,!

10:51 am

hokie carla

well done

10:51 am

Trifioso

huzzah for sandra!

11:10 am

hokie carla

11:11 am

hokie carla

oh, apparently it's the most toxic of the 3

11:11 am

Trifioso

Got it. Ty joy

12:12 pm

joym999

there are some words that I never see...even if they are in the grid almost every day...until I get to the list. Some of them are 4,4s too.

12:17 pm

LeslieAnn

i miss etna and etui almost every time

12:17 pm

joym999

etna is one of the ones I alway miss too!

12:19 pm

joym999

I'm having a really hard time with the 1st column 3rd row S. I have an SA4 and the SU6/7 but I'm convinced there couldn't be any more words there. What am I missing?

12:19 pm

joym999

I never seem to see ALTO

12:22 pm

LeslieAnn

there's an sa5/18

12:22 pm

LeslieAnn

and an su5 to go with your 6/7 combo

12:23 pm

joym999

thanks!

12:23 pm

LeslieAnn

yw

12:24 pm

joym999

I should have seen that SU5. It's the only one of that combo that I actually know.

12:28 pm

LeslieAnn

do you have any h words? i'm stumped where to go there

12:28 pm

joym999

Is there any use for the Z at all?

12:28 pm

joym999

The H words took me a while. There's a combo that seems to me to be a misspelling of a common word that means bother.

12:29 pm

LeslieAnn

oh hmm. thank you!

12:30 pm

LeslieAnn

i haven't used the z for anything yet but i have 21 left

12:31 pm

joym999

That Z is sitting there in the middle of the grid, so pointy and smug, mocking me.

12:33 pm

LeslieAnn

why don't you catch some zzzzzzz joy?!

12:33 pm

joym999

lol

12:43 pm

grannyrose
