I spent too much time trying to decipher the secret hidden meaning of the clue only for it to turn out to be played completely straight lol

Sometimes I have to find a couple words before I get a good idea of what the spangram will be, but that one was immediately apparent.

This one was particularly hard for me. Just looking for patterns in letters that weren't there.

Lotta folks after today's learning what is a very common crossword word.

I first learned the word in a puzzle in The 7th Guest. The infamous soup cans puzzle in which you have to make a sentence with Y as the only vowel.

I'm glad to know I wasn't the only one that struggled a bit with this one. My first three were towel, rinse, and moisturize, so I thought it was skincare and took a moment looking for that when I saw the actual spangram and figured it out.

Also a funny coincidence with this and another daily game today.

For me it was rinse and towel so I kept looking for something related to a washing machine

This was absolutely the hardest one for me so far. Took me over an hour of looking at it before I even found 1 word. Honestly, probably more than 1 hour since I was looking at it causally throughout the day.

Started it this morning and got only 1 word after staring at it like 5 minutes. Came back to it just now and finished the rest in a couple minutes. So it took me 10 minutes or 12 hours.

Surprised this one gave people trouble. As soon as I got one, I instantly knew what it was. Though I suppose they did translate them into English which could fuck people up
