Saturday, November 9, 2024 - Trapped aboard the STRUGGLEBUS? Best transfer to the TROUBLEFREETAXI 🙄
Description
There's only one time when we enjoy riding a STRUGGLEBUS, and that's when we're working on a tough Saturday crossword, like this one -- which, coincidentally, happened to feature an actual STRUGGLEBUS in the grid. Now long time solvers and listeners know, through experience, that clues become more cryptic, and answers longer, over the course of the week, from Monday to Saturday. To quantify this, however, someone has made a splendid visualization plotting word length versus day of the week, for the years 1994-2017 -- check it out right here.
