UNKIND-DIABOLOCRACY
I like doing it without a computer program. I like it!
Yippee-Ki-Yay, MF.
What does MF stand for again?
OA FINALLY, though I had ROCKBOUND-DAILY ages earlier.
Funny how ‘SHVITZ’ is a word, but ROCKBOUND isn’t. Hmmm.
Do your job, Sam.
Not that it would have helped me finish the puzzle but I was surprised that rinkydink is also not allowed. Took an eternity but I finally got the OA.
Abracadabra is though. Cause the whole process is magical. I did want to use it; just for the fun of it’s inefficiency.
DORK KUBRICKIANLY*
*Something film critics often say
Kubrickian is in the OED.
Ok sometimes say… 🙂
Case in point:
“In The Brood, David Cronenberg’s horror movie from 1979, Kubrickianly framed shots of a geometrically graceful, snowy psychological institute—and generally of quiet Canadian life—build a cinematic world out of elegant images, wherein you follow the perspective of a curious, often in-motion camera.”
CARIBOU I think is the first word to appear four times in an OA.
OA. Caribou is a good word for this game.
Got discouraged when LB didn’t like BOUNDARY YUCKILY, resorted to looking at a word-check site and happened on CARIBOU, then stuck UNKINDLY on the end.
BUCOLICAN* NONDORKY**
*”A New English Dictionary on Historical Principles”
**”An Inconvenient Book” by Glenn Beck
(Convenient for me though.) Sorry. 🙂
Fail,got boundary yuckily and rockbound daily but didn’t check dictionaries when not accepted. Don’t think would have seen caribou. Happy holidays ,mfs MF = my friends!
CARIBOU UNKINDLY…
Rudolph’s bullies.
OA after some time.
Yup. Finally got it after I put it aside all day and picked it up again in the evening.
