Will start now!

Edit: submitted . . . something . . . which makes more and more sense the more I think about it.

Final edit: confirmed. Remember -- as I did not -- to submit via the google form (link is in the email).

I have.....the grid.

Guess I will be thinking on this today instead of Gaffney.

I think I have it. Good one! Required some, um, life experience.

Uh oh....doesn't bode well.

Similar to another recent meta puzzle that required something I never use nor was familiar with.

Submitted. And feeling confident. Without personally having had experience of this life experience. (Have I missed anything?)

Good one!

Rich, if I have the answer I don't think you necessarily need to have had this particular life experience (to Chris' point). I was more making light of my own past. :)

Now I need to submit what I have and see if I actually got it right.

LOL, I think I have it. At the least, I think I have had those life experiences.

Got a lot of help. Definitely not in my wheelhouse, but c'est la vie!

My WAG was right. But I had help back solving. So won't submit.

Pretty sure I got this. Was on right track, but gotta admit reading the comments helped me to think that track was probably correct. Anyone willing to confirm my submission was correct with a PM?

Agree - certain life experience not needed to solve this one.
Fresh look this morning and managed to see what I needed to see.

I was seeing zilch in terms of a meta ... then came here and read the comments, which immediately made me think of another interpretation of the title. After that it was a quick solve. Thanks, Ricky, for a fun puzzle, and fellow solvers for the helpful brain wave!

I needed a nudge to get there. I am not sure if I got all of it but the graphic posted with the puzzle supports my answer so I went with it.
