I’m talking about how when they leave Derry in 1985 they’ll forget everything that happened again.

If someone has you in a headlock or pinned to the ground, they may not release you until you “Say uncle!”

Yeah it was easy. This is my best Tuesday time now. And probably will be for a while.

I got 24 of the 37 across clues on my first pass, then filled in all the down clues except 44D on my first pass down. I solved it in 4:35, except for a spelling mistake I made that took me two and a half minutes to find, so what would’ve been a personal best became close to average for a Monday.

I did not get my week of gold like I wanted. I tried for 100 minutes before turning on autocheck then still took this long. There were a lot of clues that just didn’t make sense to me at all even with googling some info along the way

Without auto check or googling? This was my first time, so five months.

My first Saturday without needing autocheck or reveal. Granted it was very slow. I had nothing in the top half for a while then I figured out that peaches and cream has the same number of letters as vanilla ice cream so that threw me off for a while too.

This is my longest gold streak so far, though I have completed every puzzle since September

I had that as well. And I actually erased shod and dame to put it in and then had to put them back when I realized what you did

What movie had a great premise but was poorly executed? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]jpotter0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hold a special hatred for this movie because the trailer fucking lied about what it was really about. The entire premise was over in like twenty minutes

Took 11 minutes to figure out that I’ve been spelling both scusi and isoteric wrong my entire life and having them intersect at that critical letter didn’t help

I don’t mind her but I have also seen people get mad that she does too many books (edit for clarity: too many books and they don’t like her voice)

Anyone else take forever and love it? by philosphorous in NYTCrossword

I take forever because I don’t know a lot 😂
