Robert Logan’s New York Times crossword—Amy’s recap
Lots of entertaining fill throughout this puzzle. My faves: “WHO KNEW?”, “YEAH, I’M SURE,” SPITBALL as a verb, BENDY STRAW, “HIT ME UP,” KEPT IT REAL, SPAMBOTS, PARTY BUS, and NERFING.
I wonder whether plural SISALS ([Natural rug fibers]) is really legit.
Clue I liked: 14D. [It stands out in a print], WHORL. In a fingerprint, not an art print.
Four stars from me.
