          Verdicts Snorkel tickles my fancy! It reminds me of a cat I know whose name is Shrapnel Pterodactyl, I kid you not. Anyway, I had a bunch including the OA. Thus Diversions Stickler (he takes his entertainment seriously; Dovekie Electrons (bird sits on a live wire?); Insectivore Enkindle (a bat hits a bug zapper?) Rekindle Evictions (as they did, post-Covid); Recidivistic Clonk (go ahead, keep hitting yourself on the head, see what happens); Discovert Tinkle (no bashful bladder here!); andvVector Rekindles (measles comeback). Among others.

      1. And even shorter: VENDORS – STICKLE

        My neck is now suffering from whiplash. Going from OMI.Never.going.to. happen to today’s super fast solve makes me appreciate the variety of this game. Off to SB, etc!

        1. VENDORS STICKLER for me too.
          I was thinking about giving up on LB a few days ago, so had a rest and tried today. Such a relief after previous stupid solutions.

      2. Same here:
        [VENDORS – STICKLER]

        I was close with these too…
        Revisionist – Tickle (no D)
        Revisionists – Scold (no K)

        I’m thinking some of these words lead to pairings as well:
        Stockier/est, Vectors, Evictions, Division, Lovelock

  1. Overstock Kindle also. Burning down the house?

    Messed about with Controversion for a bit but no go.

  2. OA for a change! Felt like there were multiple possibilities today with COVERTS, DIVISIONS, VENDORS, ROCKIEST, …

  3. VENDORS STICKLE, quickly too. STICKLER was the first word I saw, Stickler-Rondo-Over, took a while to get VENDOR/S. Tried STICKLE, was okayed to my surprise.

    1. Excellent!

      I found VIVISECTION early, but could not find a pairing. I didn’t even think of VIVISECTOR.

  4. Here is the full list including Scrabble words:
