A truly great LB day! So many valid LB solutions I did not even consider half- or pseudo-solutions. I do see some program revisions I’d like to make moving forward. I should exclude the plural S when it’s the ending letter of the second word, to remove redundancy, and obtain a cleaner list.
Good new week to all!
Mark out. ☕☕
Churching golems
I thought they were Jewish.
CHORUSING – GOLEM(S) Getting into the World Cup spirit
Churlish Hegemon
✔
Same.
Churlish — Homering
Smilers slouching
Crushing Golem
OA today. Found Crushing quickly. Then with the remaining letters I found Golem only because the letters worked together. But I was totally unfamiliar with this word.
Same here
GLOMS – SCRUNCHIE here. I know SCRUNCHIE has been used before. Only 2 sips into the coffee – frees up so much more time for other (not as fun) things!
OA very fast. Crushing golem also makes for a great theme
My first guess was SCRUNCHING GOLEMS
GOMERS SLOUCHING
MOUCHING GEOLOGERS
RUCHING GOMERILS*
*MW Scrabble
SCRUNCH HOMELING*
* Century Dictionary and “A Glossary of Words, Phrases, Names, and Allusions in the Works of English Authors.”
HOROLOGERS SMOUCHING*
*to kiss. OED; “A Dictionary of English Etymology”
EMIRS-SLOUCHING
Molers scrunching
Homologous sincere
Schlemiels souring/scrounge/scrounging
Doubly archaic.
CHIRONOMER* RUSHLING**
*Century Dict. A teacher of gesticulation.
** OED, and Shakespeare (Merry Wives of Windsor)
LOUNGERS SMIRCH
Don’t know why it took my brain so long to kick into gear today when it looked to be such a promising array… Finally ended up with GINORMOUS SCHLEMIEL.
GINORMOUS SCHLEMIEL is too funny. Evokes an image similar to my SLOUCHING GOMER. 🙂
Schlemiels scrounger(s)
Germs slouching germ(s)
Slouching germier/germing
Merinos slouching
Loungers smirch/smirching
Loungers schlemiel(s)
