Nice solve! 35:xx here which is also faster than my average for a Friday. It took coming back to for me, I kinda stalled out with 50% of the puzzle done but when I came back I got a couple of the big clues sorted and then it fell into place.

34 and it felt so slow!! Ugh didn’t get it in all across. Could have been sub 30 but got hung up

Did anyone else do the Wordle and the Xword today?

spoiler

I wonder if it has happened before that the wordle answer is also an answer in the crossword? This was my first time noticing it.

0:49 and I blame McDonald’s: as soon as I saw the clue for 5A referencing a “grimacing face emoji” my mind went to Grimace shakes and shit, and my rhythm was busted. Damnit mcd hah. And then 6A is also hard to solve without any crosses, another trap that slowed me down.

Ok back at it. We had company staying with us so I kinda took Friday and Saturday off from xwords and then did the Sunday late last night. Here’s hoping to kick off another complete week!

Nice! And annoying that it went weird on you.

That’s kinda cool, I’ve never watched someone else narrating their solve, I checked it out for a few mins and it’s interesting to see and hear someone else’s methodology and thought process.
