The answers are:
MOURNEDDELIGHT
MOURNED—DELIGHT(ED)
oxymoronic OA
🙂
METHOUGHT—TENDRIL
I like using ‘methinks’ in writing sometimes. However I don’t recall ever using ‘methought’. ☕
OA for me. And that’s my life – the things I used to delight in are dead to me now.
Ho hum!
unMOURNED—DELIGHT…
There. Fixed it.
👍
OA
MOURNED—DELIGHT(ED) for me too after messing around with some other “ight” words.
I’m happy to be done after yesterday’s prolonged failure.
I started with MOUNTED, then saw Delight. That left the R hanging. Easy to see MOURNED from that for an easy OA solve today
OA. Oxymoronic, perhaps. Or…”Ding-Dong. The Witch is Dead!!”
Same, OA fairly quickly.
I played with Motioned, Heightened first.
Then was close with Lightened – Demotion/Demolition
(no UR)
Bingo! Same….playing around with LIMELIGHT/NIGHT/MOUND(ED) variations to get OA.
Same!
OA everyday😊
Mourned Delight. I have of late—but wherefore I know not—lost all my mirth.
Quick and straightforward. I like it.
UNRIGHTED / DEMOLITION A bit long, but I’ll take it.
Same.
Same too.
Like the Yankee Stadium in NY
unrighted – demolition as well
Here as well. The Buddhas of Bamiyan.
That’s some great harking back , DW.
Same
Nice!
Wow. Surprised to have so many comrades in arms with the remarkably inefficient UNRIGHTED-DEMOLITION.
Same
I followed the same route with Unrighted but found Dolmen.
This was my answer too.
Tipped over megalithic tomb… UNRIGHTED DOLMEN
I got this too.
MOURNED – DELIGHT … Champagne Hangover
OA. Glad to see you made it positive 🍾🥂
…or a meeting of the Masochists Club…
We buried my mother-in-law today 🙁
🤣🥶
Unrighted – Dolomite
Rudy Ray Moore approved answer.
Oa
We buried my mother-in-law today 🙁
Terrific TI. 😊
…is Stripe joking…. if so, hilarious😂 .
If not, my condolences 😟
Ha ha ha!!!
I gave up when the alarm bells (after 1 hour). But before that I found DELIGHT, unpaired. I really thought this is easy for me. Too bad time’s up! Seeing the solution, I regret I gave up.
Some days I spend WAY more than an hour on LB (I realize that most folks that play, actually have a life and can’t/won’t dedicate that kind of time). The nice thing is that there will always be another puzzle tomorrow! 🙂
😅
OA
The Addams Family OUGHT to have been TOUGHENED the NIGHT Grandmama ate tainted GRUEL and drank a MINT GIMLET with a sleep-inducing DRUG and apparently died. But their LIMITED sorrow turned to GRUNTLED DELIGHT when Gradmama arose and MOUNTED a HOUND in a DEMENTED race to the MOUND near their HOME.
Found TELODENDRION* which LB doesn’t accept 🙁
Played with TOUGHENED — DELIMITED (no R)
Played with GUILDED, GUILTED
Finally found MOURNED and then DELIGHTED which is a Ying Yang solve today!
MOLU° – UNRIGHTED 13/2
Molu was a guess, of course.
°OED
molu, variant of moly, n.
1. Classical Mythology. A fabulous herb with magic powers, said by Homer to have been given by Hermes to Odysseus as a charm against the enchantments of Circe, and described as having a white flower and a black root. Also figurative. Now chiefly poetic.
2. Any of various plants that have been identified with the moly of Homer.
Rundlet Toughminded
trudged demolition
My second day in a ow getting it in two.
Only third time.
Ooops. I forgot a letter. Lol
OA after trying many words. The ight’s, tion’s, -ed’s, de-‘s. Glad it worked out eventually
mourned-delight for me, too
Optimal 3 here,
MOL – LIGHTED – DURN (14)
OA today after a long hiatus from LB
