Like slipshod. Good one.

GOOD ONE
Had Slipshod and was looking for something with back to pair it. Found backsplash but didn’t see hairdo. So then changed it to SPLASHBACK and finished it with DROIDS. So in this case it was the droids I was looking for. Would have been amazing if this was the puzzle on May 4th.
