KEYPUNCHHIJAB
OA.
Waiting on my besties Miss Irim and Kanishk-boy. 🤗
KEYPUNCH-HIJAB immediately. Yay, RF – c’mon, Kanishk!
Good luck, everyone, and happy Thursday.
OA in one minute after trying to pair HIJACK. I suspect HIJABI is the only other alternative.
Well done to the triumvirate, all three of us are here!
OA quickly. I believe Hijab was OA recently
OA. Hijab has been used at least once before.
Saw HIJAB quickly, but have to admit I stumbled across KEYPUNCH on a word-check site. My mom was a computer programmer back in the 1960s, I still have old punch cards in a cabinet upstairs. When we were kids we used to fold and staple the cards and spray paint them gold or silver to make wreath decorations for Christmas, and save up bagfuls of the little rectangular punchouts for confetti. I guess KEYPUNCH still qualifies as a valid word, but it’s so dated I doubt it would ever cross the mind of anyone younger than a certain age.
I’m so dated, I didn’t realize it is a dated word.
A KEYPUNCH caused an uproar one day,
When a HUNCHBACK bounded our way,
With the KICKBACK he paid,
For the HIJACK he made,
As he bowed to the lady’s HIJAB.

OA after experimenting with BAKCHICH which means bribe. Also PUNCHBACK, an oil drilling term. But the J only seemed to work with the OA today.
Keypunch hijab Tried Punjabi and hunchback. Suspected singular solution ?
Very surprised Punjabi was accepted. You can’t even use Latin.
Icehickey could work with it. 🙂 you get one when the puck grazes your neck.
