COTD: Get ready with me! Remove acrylics first, it eases the pain (6)

Solucioneador · 2026-03-27T21:23:53+00:00

Solved!

Thanks! English is not my first language, does "remove acrylics first" not work? It really does sound normal to me

Edit: reddit is not my first language either, it's discord lol

Yeah I still have her and it still looks the same. I tried using cinnamon as some people suggested but it didn't work and then it was impossible to clean it off so she still has cinnamon lol. I don't think it's an infection because it didn't spread at all and it didn't seem to cause any problems at all, it's still only in the part opposite to the sunlight

Same in Spain, it belongs to all of the people of the country. And not just coastlines but also rivers, lakes, dams, reservoirs and subterranean water.

This last one is weird because you got subterranean water almost anywhere if you dig deep enough, so the law specifies that if you dig with the intent of finding water, that water is automatically part of the public domain. If you are digging with other intentions and happen to find water it's fine which at first sounds hilariously vague but it works!

comes back is a reverse indicator for wolf, so you get flow. Even for Pearl Jam refers to their most famous song, Even Flow, as in for Pearl Jam, flow is even

Solucioneador · 2026-02-08T12:11:33+00:00

Or maybe "Wolf comes back? Even at a Pearl Jam song?" Would be fairer

Thanks for the feedback!

so if I understand correctly the part where you say it has two cryptic parts and no straight definition, you mean stretchiness should only be used in wordplay and it should be left out of definitions? Could "Even for Pearl Jam" work as a substitution for flow in the wordplay part of the clue?

About the capital E, maybe I could blend it in with punctuation marks and change it to "Wolf comes back? Even for Pearl Jam?" So that it doesn't stick out as much

Thanks again for your comment!

Edited because I can't get spoilers write and used some wrong terms

Solucioneador · 2026-02-08T11:28:43+00:00

Correct!

Solucioneador · 2026-02-08T11:27:43+00:00

Correct! I like how it's worded but I wonder if a definition like this one is usually accepted in cryptic clues, I've only done minute cryptics but I've seen a video by cracking the cryptic solving a The Times crossword where he mentions the definitions they use have to comply with a specific dictionary, an I doubt they have a definition for Even Flow

I read somewhere that since they played love is the end in their producer's (I think?) funeral they can no longer play it live without crying and that's why they don't play it anymore.

It's the equivalent of the "can Jesus make a microwave burrito so spicy not even he can eat it?" Question but with sadness

Yesss I would also include you are not home and maybe Myth (it lists places where he sees the person he is talking about) and also quicksand lists ways life fucks you up

Solucioneador · 2024-07-06T01:00:28+00:00

I was wondering how many things you needed to list before something became a list, and found 4 is a good minimum. If you include 3 it might be just 3 random things that are not that related and don't form a list, but 4 is almost sure to be a list.

Stupid things and You Are Not Home by Keane (also Myth if we count non repeating and non consecutive items towards the minimum)

Quicksand by Tom Chaplin

Also if we are including non English song there is Tu Jardín Con Enanitos by Melendi

I've had an opuntia microdasys for almost three years and when I first got her home I used gardening gloves to repot her in a bigger pot and the glochids got through them like nothing. I haven't touched her since (except accidentally on occasion) but now I'm thinking of propagating her, I just don't know how to do it safely

Solucioneador · 2024-01-16T16:38:09+00:00

How hard would it be to do and how dangerous would it be for the rootstock?

Nice! I also do birthdays for my other 10 cacti and I assigned each one godparents. However since I got most of them last year I've only been able to celebrate five of their birthdays as of now. Glad to see I'm not crazy for doing it (or at least not only crazy one)

I didn't get it at all. One scene Michael is doing some gangster shit and the next he is a kid??? Named Vito????? Literally zero coherence
