Out of the box after my first answer was incorrect, but only by one thing (lack of knowledge in a certain area).

The penultimate bifurcation of syzygy.

Yes, that means ... nothing.

but this meta, given where I live, was very easy.

Dino me too (whatever that means). Nice to have an easy meta after I got caught flat-footed last week.

Edit: I was wrong but Will gave me the nudge I needed. I am embarrassed to have missed this one.
Your first entry was probably the same as mine. I don't follow sports at all and submitted the first thing I came across. Will responded with a nudge, and I quickly found the right answer.

On the dino train, but I think I'm clinging to the roof or something since my first answer was wrong. (I see that I'm not alone up here!) I tried to jam the puzzle pieces into the layout I thought must be right, instead of figuring out what the layout should actually be for those pieces...

I am also dinoed...I started typing the popularly wrong answer in my reply to Will, then in mid-sentence realized there were 2 focusing elements in the puzzle that didn't mesh with it, and changed to the right one after about 5 seconds of thought to make sure I had the correct specific answer.

Yea Out of the Box (like the bag only squarer!) This was a walk in the park compared to a walk in the woods!
