If you're working on today's Washington Post crossword online, please don't read this . . .
Haha, for the rest of you, the clue for 69 across was "an expression of defiance." The answer?
Nerts.
Nerts? What the hell is nerts? According to The Free Dictionary, "nerts" is an alteration of the word "nuts" meaning "used to express disgust, contempt, or refusal." Seriously, how am I supposed to know that? How is anyone supposed to know that?
The office-mate and I use the word "arse," which is a variation of the you-know-what, but other than that, please share with me some of your word variations so that I might one day be able to finish my crossword puzzle.
