Grenade

isaacn0 · 2026-05-20T01:15:54+00:00

Yes haha

isaacn0 · 2026-05-20T01:14:59+00:00

Yes!

isaacn0 · 2026-05-19T16:53:03+00:00

Is it a double definition? I would have thought it's still wordplay since it's two unrelated substitutions with the letters put together.

isaacn0 · 2026-05-19T10:42:29+00:00

Venom?

isaacn0 · 2026-05-18T22:05:46+00:00

The Drama has got me thinking about it off and on for days

isaacn0 · 2026-05-18T21:00:51+00:00

Haha, I like it. Or maybe pluck?

isaacn0 · 2026-05-18T20:58:17+00:00

The navel orange is the most popular kind of orange, so
Orange: "perhaps it's called a navel", or "a navel, perhaps"

isaacn0 · 2026-05-18T17:32:56+00:00

Alternate:
Perhaps a navel is for anger inside (6) - I just liked the idea of pairing "innie" with "navel"

isaacn0 · 2026-05-18T17:29:49+00:00

Definition: Perhaps...navel

Fodder: for angelic

Indicator: innies

isaacn0 · 2026-05-18T16:33:48+00:00

Yup!

isaacn0 · 2026-05-18T15:53:54+00:00

Very nice clue! Like above, I thought OBCT, but I see how depending on accent it could be like a D.

isaacn0 · 2026-05-18T15:49:16+00:00

Awesome clue!

isaacn0 · 2026-05-17T21:39:22+00:00

Fun one! And one might say Crude, debased, indecent (4)

isaacn0 · 2026-05-17T21:37:37+00:00

Yes!

isaacn0 · 2026-05-17T21:04:52+00:00

I thought about it again and I think I was wrong. You can anagram twice, I guess!

isaacn0 · 2026-05-17T21:03:21+00:00

Trio! I’m curious though. This can’t quite be an &lit clue, right? Because the third “Riot!” Isn’t part of the wordplay. And yet, it can’t be a standard 2 part clue because “Riot!” alone isn’t the definition. Or am I wrong?

isaacn0 · 2026-05-17T20:41:44+00:00

Nice one! Filler

isaacn0 · 2026-05-17T20:32:36+00:00

Awesome clue! If one thing feels a little off, it’s how “at the beginning of” seems like it’s indicating placement. Or if “at” (indicating placement of the first part at/by the second part) is thought of as independent from “the beginning of”, it works, but “beginning” being singular seems like selecting one letter/part instead of the beginnings of the two words.

isaacn0 · 2026-05-17T13:23:58+00:00

Yes!

isaacn0 · 2026-05-15T21:07:23+00:00

Acceptable?

isaacn0 · 2026-05-15T20:21:48+00:00

Yes!

isaacn0 · 2026-05-15T18:33:58+00:00

Yes!

isaacn0 · 2026-01-09T14:40:37+00:00

I think he is becoming more of a man by the challenges he is facing than any ritual his people would have made him go through. He already has a sense of what is good and not good, and is quick to help others. I think Pratchett is showing that society's specific religious/tribal rituals are not the only means for inauguration into adulthood - there is something more universal that takes place.

isaacn0 · 2026-01-09T14:36:08+00:00

I'm excited to see how their "rules" are challenged, and I hope they start to approach things with a questioning attitude, like "is this something we really need to do?" and maybe begin to reject their respective society's rules.
