The answers are:
CRYPTOOBELISK
PRICKLES – SOBRIETY
PICKLES – SOBRIETY
Falls off the wagon.
Same
Pickles-Sobriety. New rehab exposure therapy.
And into a cactus.
Too funny, MVUA!
I just have the OA, Crypto Obelisk – it’s Space Odyssey time!
me too
Also… Not the OA, but a big dill all the same.
Cool as a cucumber, I relished leaving out the R. (dumb).
My exacerbating puns are still stuck in the maize today. So corny.
Prickles-Sobriety here too. Modified Prickliest after finding Sobriety. Not much of a struggle today.
Now stop that!
I actually got EXACERBATING for the 3/25 puzzle, funnily enough.
Prickliest – Toby
Had to try it and Toby accepted
Yes! Same here. TI – perfect description for my 13 year old dog 😉
Toby: “Toby” can refer to a few things, including a male given name (a shortened form of Tobias), a drinking mug shaped like a stout man (a “Toby jug”), and in some contexts, slang for “road” or “highway”
PRICKLIEST TOBY
Like Bruce, I just took a stab at TOBY and was surprised when LB accepted it.
Add me to the list of people who found PRICKLIEST and then just took a flyer on TOBY and was shocked when it was accepted.
Same here
Ha! I, too, was surprised toby was a word — oh 2fer! — since I only knew it as my childhood fave dog’s name.
OA
prickliest – toby as well
Add one more. Late to the party, but delighted it was accepted.
Mine as well!
Sad hamburger 🙁
No more dill for you!
Same here.
I also had stockpiles and sobriety.
I had Pickles and Sobriety. Only the second time I’ve ever gotten it in two!
Another for PRICKLES – SOBRIETY.
Stockpiles Sobriety
Same!
Same. Took a while to find PRICKLES and then even longer to find a way to use the remaining 4 letters. I was so glad to find SOBRIETY I didn’t even notice I could have removed the redundant R from the first word.
Pickles Sobriety
Prickliest Toby
CRYPTO-OBELISK
STOCKPILES-SOBRIETY
PRICKLES-SOBRIETY
PICKLES-SOBRIETY
Stockpiles — Sobriety
same
STOCKPILES – SOBRIETY for me too, though PICKLES/PRICKLES were ironically two of the first words I found.
PICKLES – SOBRIETY really quickly today
I was actually excited to post my answer but the answers weren’t up. Tried again at 8.01 and not up. Returned and hey, I’m too late with my version of staying off the booze. Nice clear puzzle free day ahead…..and it’s sunny in the UK😎
Yes puzzle seems very late to post these days. I had Plecks Sobriety (the former an English dialect word for a plot of land — ever hear it in conversation there?)
If the answers page is not up yet, you can leave a comment by searching one of the OA words of the day.
Interesting tip i will give that a try next time i am up late
PRICKLIEST TOBY. Difficult jug?
I found it…
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jug_in_the_Form_of_a_Head,_Self-Portrait
while learning why toby* has a definition.
*see toby jug for reference
🤣
My mom collected quite a few things. Not my bag.
Was supposed to say “collected quite a few of these things” (Toby mugs). Too bad I can’t just retract the whole thing or edit it. Because it definitely wasn’t a worth a correction.
Too bad we can’t post pictures! I’m sure there’s a prickly one in her collection!
Same. Apparently you know what a toby is, which I admit I did not.
Figured this is my just reward for all the times LB rejects words I clearly know exist.🙂
I’m old, I know what Toby jugs are! Comes with age perhaps. 🤔
I’m posting solutions that I haven’t seen mentioned yet, and relying on other dictionaries:
BRICKLE°—ECOTYPES
BRICKLE°—ELECTROTYPIST
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
STOCKPILE—EBRIETY°
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BRICKTOP°—PLESIOTYPE^
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
°OED, ^MW.
STOCKPILES – SOBRIETY
STOCKPILES-SOBRIETY here too.
Same here
2 things I’d never do…
stockpiles sobriety
Maybe if you pickled it, you could save it up for later use? Unfortunately, I just don’t think it works that way.
OA finally after a 2 week slump!
PRICKLES-SOBRIETY
pickles-sobriety
CRYPTO — OBELISK
BRICKLE — ELECTROTYPIST
PICKLES – SOBRIETY
No more dill for you!
Ditto.
Stockpiles-Sobriety
Stockpiles sobriety
Plecks Sobriety
Stockpiles-Sobriety
Teetotaling
POCKLES SOBRIETY
Also BROCKLE* EPISTLE EYE
BROCKLES would be good for a two-word answer but Brockle does not seem to have a plural option. It means rubble or debris. In OED.
With STRIPEY.
Another stockpiles – sobriety here
PICKLES – SOBRIETY
detox is a big dill
Same here.
Same!
A half-sour jest from AKB!
BRICKIE ELECTROTYPIST
PRICKLIEST-TOBY
CRYPTO? Lousy neologisms!
