I may start. It’s like Jeopardy, they’re easy if you know them. Some of the clues in the NYT puzzle are very tough, other crosswords are softball comparatively. ---

> [@stevejspins](#): > > Some of the clues in the NYT puzzle are very tough, other crosswords are softball comparatively. It’s definitely something you get better at the more you do them. You start to “understand” what they mean by the clues. ---
