Same. Quick and of course easy for me today.
Me too… that was my fastest solve. Under 2 minutes. Wow. I’ll take it 😂
Same, like literally <20 sec. Saw GROUCH immediately and FLEXING was obvious. Woot woot !
FLEXING – GROUCH
Bent out of shape.
👍
That’s funny. Quick OA here as well.
Less than 30 seconds.
Muscle misery
Got the OA quickly today. I feel better after only finding 3-word solutions yesterday.
OA in under a minute and it would have been even faster if I hadn’t mindlessly gone ‘Reflexing’ before having a sip of coffee.
OA. A Muppet doing yoga??

pumping ire
Good one!
Thanks, Amber!
OA. It’s almost disappointing when the solution pops out so quickly. Almost. 😄
OA. After the last 2 days, I’m liking the quickie.
OA
Another OA here.
One of the things I like about this game is that there is no perfect correlation between how easy a puzzle is and how many two-word solutions there are. In this case, there are very few two-word solutions. The puzzles I find most gratifying have several, but it takes a while to find one. (As anyone who has been here since close to the beginning will know, I am notorious for disliking puzzles that only have one two-word solution, no matter how easy it is to find.)
OA
OA in a minute. Polar opposite of yesterday . TI: what the mental muscles feel like today after complaining about dognap before
Flexing grouching
OA in PR.
FLEXING — GROUCH
Those were the first two words that I found. Definitely, my fastest solve ever. If I have time, I will look for others.
Recently the answers have been immediate or never for me
Flexing grouch
FLEXING – GROUCH, the fastest OA I ever found!
OA after dumping INFLEXION when I saw the ‘IN’ at the beginning was superfluous. Relieved it was so quick! Now on to other delights.
OA very quickly
OA
As said by many others, I got it almost immediately.
OA, it was pretty straight today.
However, encouraged by DOGNAP, I ventured into all possible bizarre compound words. Like Foxinchurch, Forechin, Inexile, crouchingfox,etc.
FLEXING GROUCHING
EXCHORINE* ENGULF
*Used often in “The Women” by Clare Boothe Luce, 1936.
OA after a brief dalliance with FOXHOLE
Took me a while– after a while, I found CROUCHING, which left FLEX with no connection. When I moved the ING to FLEX, the connecting word was obvious. I guess Oscar got swole– trash must be heavy.
Also FLEXOR RUCHING.
Flexor rechurning
Fun- foxholing groucher everyone who did basic training remembers him
On the earlier posted idea of made up words,saw “rememberthought” a couple of days ago and thought “that sounds like something Ricky on Trailet Park Boys would say” todays Ricky word is rolexing
And religionful
Brilliant. Love it!
Thanks Jenny
Flexor rechurching(wictionary)
Flexor recrouching
Exfilic crouching exfil military short for exfiltration so exfilic is neologism for pertaining to exfiltration
Scratch exfilic
FLEXOR RUCHING; can’t believe I missed the OA! I got Flex, Flexor, Flexion and Inflexion, and other -ing words – Roughing, Crouching – the latter plus Flex but coldn’t join them together. Got my 2w quickly. Somehow never thought of Flexing!
flexing – grouch
OA
Maybe shortest time yet.
OA. Took a while to think of FLEXING but then it was immediate.
FLEXING GROUCH
Fairly quick solve at 11:00pm local time (east coast USA, 03:00UCT) after spending an hour or so earlier in the day.

TI: Oscar showing off!
