"You Don't Say" - January 21, 2022

[pilsbandy]

Finished the grid pretty quickly, and I feel like I'm close to shore on the meta but something is missing. Could I call in the Coast Guard for a nudge toward safe harbor?

Done, and done moments later on Thursday. I'm another in the long line of those who glommed onto this one in a hurry.

Four good playoff games this weekend.

Ashore! That was fun!

On another note - any Wordlers here? Have been really enjoying something that runs counter to other online games that try to keep you on for as long as possible. One 5-letter word per day and then you have to wait for another 24 hours before the next. Different skill set to crosswords and metas but fun nonetheless!

@mrmd , I Love Wordle…got my whole family doing it. And here’s another variation for you “Absurdle”. Read this to see how it differs from Wordle and a link to play!

I've been enjoying Wordle and find the structure behind Absurdle fascinating! THANKS! More fun!

For just a little giggle you can find out which character from The Love Boat matches your personality -- I somehow got Isaac.

Ditto, and I’m kind of choking on that.

Maine Marge-
I am Capt. Stubing.
You gotta be kidding me.
ROTFLMAO.

[OffAndRunning]

Ashore at last. Thanks to the friendly souls that told me to keep it simple.

Ashore

[zacmoretz]

I’m ashore too Bob.

Not sure what character I might be, but think we can all agree that the Love Boat theme absolutely flipping rocks.

[Meg]

I’m Julie and apparently I have a crush on Gopher.

[hcbirker]

I am apparently Captain Stubing. Seems logical.

[Jeffrey]

I’m Doc, and apparently I have a hormonal issue involving testosterone.

My wife is giggling so hard she has snot running out of her nose.

Oops - went to my Muggles browser (window open since last week) and posted my status (ashore) earlier today. Later, looked back to read the late posts (always enjoy those) and wondered why nobody had posted all day. My browser was still set on Golden Years!
Stupid me!

EDIT: I did Janet P’s quiz and got Doc. As I arrived in the US well after Love Boat wrapped up, I am now compelled to watch some old episodes to learn about the ‘real’ me!

[FKelly]

I DO SAY, on shore.
Wow! Great finish to Rams - Bucs game. But wait ... even better finish to Bills - Chiefs game.

I rarely post, but since you're after a record . . . I floated ashore pretty quickly on Thursday afternoon.

And I just finished watching the most amazing football game I've ever seen. Josh Allen was flawless. Somehow Mahomes was even more.

[patpatchica]

Apparently, I’m Gopher. I’m not sure if that’s good or bad. He was always kind of annoying.

[GTIJohnny]

RAPPERS, or so I was convinced, at 1A had me floundering.

MAUIISLAND?? Most everyone uses ISLAND as a preface to the various Hawaiian Islands, i.e. Island of Moloka'i.

Nonetheless I eventually figured it out.

I learned a new word this week thanks to this meta.
