Okay, so today I got stuck on this crossword puzzle. The clue was “wasn’t cheerful,” and I just couldn’t figure it out. It’s been bugging me all day!
I started by looking up the clue online, you know, just to see if anyone else had the same problem. I typed “wasn’t cheerful crossword clue” into the search bar, and a bunch of results popped up.
I clicked on a few of them and started reading. Apparently, this clue has been in the LA Times Crossword recently, like on September 29, 2024. People were saying the answer was a five-letter word.
Digging Deeper
- I saw a lot of people suggesting “BOOED” as the answer.
- I also noticed that this clue has shown up a few times before, so it’s not exactly a new one.
So, I went back to my crossword puzzle and tried to fit “BOOED” in there. And guess what? It worked! I filled it in, and it made sense with the other words I already had.
I learned that sometimes you just need a little help from the internet to solve these things. I probably could’ve figured it out on my own eventually, but it was nice to get that little push.
Anyway, I finished the rest of the puzzle after that, and it felt good to finally crack that clue. It’s funny how these little things can be so satisfying. Now I know a new word for when someone wasn’t so cheerful.
