JOKER – REFLATIONS
Also came up with JERKINS, STARLIKE, NONFERTILE, FERTILISATION, FORESAIL and REINFLATION.
LB wouldn’t accept REINFLATIONS for some reason.
Nice! I was able to pair JERKINS with SOLFATARAS.
Merriam-Webster:
SOLFATARA: a volcanic area or vent that yields only hot vapors and sulfurous gases.

Pleased to post, and fun to read the MVUA word-play!
How did they miss Scuba-ey Snacks? And chicken, shrimp or reef? (Is MVUA a man or woman? Every time I see the name, at first glance I think of Mulva… )
Hey Samuel!
Scooba Snacks is a good one!
And it’s pronounced “mm-VOO-ah,” with the stress on the second syllable. There is no break or other sound between the m and v.
Thanks for the encouragement and sharing the fun everybody!
MVUA is your actual name? Always assumed it was an acronym or had some clever meaning behind it. Mine’s not actually Samuel, the whole thing is kind of a spoonerism on Ham Sandwich…
No, it’s not my real name, nor as fun as yours, but that is how it is pronounced.
Enjoyed having a genuine bit of exchange today, thanks!
Nice straightforward OA for me today.
OA in a few minutes, but tougher than it originally appeared, at least for me. Saw a few of the words others have posted, and even thought of hooking them up to REFLATION(S), but didn’t think it was even worth trying since it seemed like such a longshot it being a real word.
