Subtraction
:)
Dey job? LALAW
Shower in public? RAIN
Six-pack abs? BEERBELLY [always wanted them --- now I see I’ve had them all along]
Theme: clue lacks initial number, which if added, leads to the answer
questions FUNGUESSINGGAME [“Twenty” was subtracted from the clue]
ers FOOTBALLPLAYERS [“49-“ was subtracted]
>:(
Phils, e.g. NLERS [along with ACERS are crosswordese at its worsty --- how does that grab you?]
Clues were challenging and the theme original --- and also tough.
RATING: ;D ;D ;D Three grins = Excellent: Loved it; Two grins = Good: Enjoyed it; One grin = Satisfactory: A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Unsatisfying: No fun
