QUICKIEEMPATHY

OA in two minutes. And looks like YET another singular solution, according to Alice Liang’s LB solver. This is getting ridiculous. LB is nowadays not as fun to play as it used to be.
A happy Tuesday to everyone – RF and Irim, wishing you all the best and hoping to see you both soon.
Ha, we posted at EXACTLY the same time! Sadly can’t delete and repost here, so C&P:
“OA in about 7 minutes after trying PACKET and an alternate spelling of KUMQUAT. Then tried EMPATHY on a whim and started laughing, wondering if QUICKIE would be accepted…and here we are after a nightmare couple of days with LB, back on track.
Back at work too – hoping to see my besties, RF and Kanishk soon with their solutions. Happy Tuesday, everyone – good luck to all attempting, congrats to all who solve, and commiserations to those who don’t this time. Post your threes, btw, I love seeing them.”
Well done, Irim! I didn’t even notice CUMQUAT – I only tried pairing MAKEUP before spotting EMPATHY.
Still waiting for the day the delete/edit function makes its way onto this site.
Tired today. Gave LB only 30 minutes and gave up.
Well done my besties…👍👏
Big hugs, hon – get some rest. How can we be here for you?
Quip packet thyme
Hype epic cumquat thick
Pretty quickly got it
I didn’t think it would accept quickie, never seen it spelled that way. I just tried it on the off chance.
Took a little while but hit the OA. Also tried Cumquat fwiw. 90/97, 6/7, 2, 36
OA rather quick also.
Quickie — Empathy, quickie-ly as well
There is probably a limited number of puzzles that can be solved in two letters. And perhaps we are coming to the end after so many years.

QUICKIE—EMPATHY
As others have noted, it’s a suspected singular solution again.
My program also found:
quicke—empathy
But I only saw it in Wiktionary, and it’s a stretch for sure.

Quickie Empathy
Quickie empathy. I got it pretty fast I feel for those who didn’t
Fairly quick OA today.
Quickie OA today…
Got the OA in about 30 seconds. The time it took to type it in. Disappointing grid today.
Also KIP PIQUE ECTHYMA*
*MW skin infection similar to impetigo.
Quickie & Empathy
Very easy today. I was able to solve it in less than 5 minutes.
OA describes today also
Wondered if OA might have been a not-so-veiled message from Sam to LB players. Got it in seconds today.
Quiet them myth hack Kip
OA – didn’t think it wd be
Feeling the feels for those who just need it to get on with their day…
OA
Genuinely surprised QUICKIE is something Sam Ezersky would pick to be part of his OA. It’s not that I’m a prude — it’s just that I’ve discovered words (I believe WHORE is one) that the puzzle simply won’t accept. Pretty silly.
