Inside the Minds of Crossword-Puzzle Creators | The New Yorker - Jak na to + styl
Felt like I was watching a cute first date
Joyce Chahine - Pianist ...but her body posture tell me he won’t have a second date !!!
Amy Santiago is freaking out over this video
What are easy and hard clues for BINDER?
This looks like a great first date
"Cruciverbalist." That's a word I can get behind.
Sounds like a Harry potter spell
in Italy some kind of puzzles are called "cruciverba" so it might make sense after all
Please do this at least once a month, very amusing to watch
didn't know this is what I was missing in life. More please!
they should have made this a competition. Give one a word that they make a clue for and the other has to guess.
cross word puzzle creators are under rated.
omg I took a grad seminar with Anna Schectman once she is wildly smart
Hey that guy was on Jeopardy!
Edit: I didnt watch the whole video before commenting
yeah you did.
Off topic but....HIS HAIR THO!!!😻😻😻
These two are adorable. Please do this once a week. I don’t care what you talk about.
Wish I could be half as likable as these two individuals
You can
What’s holding you back ?
*amy santiago has entered the chat*
This is a great understanding of crossword puzzle creation.
I'm living for that dudes Afro... I'm black and can't even grow an afro :(
Adam Tak I feel like he definitely has some black in him, looks mixed
He's definitely mixed
Its easy tho especially if you’re under 30
I can't either. Lmao.
avant garde crossword puzzle is a great phrase I wish I could use. I can't really "do" crossword puzzles, my brain just can't think that way. I like word play and stuff but I can't see the clue and think up a word, i can see the word and clue and get why it works, it's the same with trivia.
‘Long, luxurious car’ - 4 letters
(We’ll give you the short version)
I love when he's the creator of the puzzle, great clues
anyone know what blue pen they were using near the beginning of the video?
it's a bic
The Millenial vibe in this video and comments
Globe trotter is the best thing I've ever herd
Globe trotter is sooooo good.
A great look into how our language is evolving through internet culture!
3:04 - ..WOW FUZZ!!
you can see them falling in love oml
love this!
Now do a video about people who create cryptic crosswords.
second that!
"Waiting for Beyonce" Aren't we all kind of tough?
I'm not that tough
Holy crap they're like people what a surprise that they are sort of like smart people having a conversation, now that is amazing its very enjoyable that it has nothing to do with crosswords
I thought this title was “Crossword Puzzle Cheaters”, and I thought YES! Oh well☹️
I was waiting on Thirsty
👀
Alright, I totally fell for her after "Globe trotter".
I'll preface this and say, I'am sorry. Could you explain why globe trotter works? I don't get it.
@@siccodewilt1 No need to be sorry! Shakespeare is commonly affiliated with the Globe Theatre in London (built by his playing company)
How much do they earn
Def watching this a second time :)
i absolutely love crosswords,,,, like i have one with me wherever i go
Why am I entertained by just two people talking about writing crossword puzzles
Because they’re not talking about crossword puzzles
I don’t get globetrotter someone help me
The Globe was the 17th century London theatre that Shakespeare is most closely associated with. He acted there and was a part owner of it. So the cryptic clue is that he trotted around in The Globe.
@@newremote that's actually brilliant
His fro is so perfect
I liked this almost as much as the WIRED crosswords video... but unfortunately not as much!
I suck at them I also suck at jeopardy reminds me I'm not nearly as smart as I think I is
Completely random but- Emilia sacconejoly will grow up to look like Anna in the video
The background music is annoying
I'm thirsty for Pepsi
Spelling how different wat to spell Spider
I can't tell what background he is
I ship these two
Bob Ross's alive ? :o
I’m at the point where I can just about finish the daily puzzle faster than I can boil a pot of water. Not The NY Times puzzle, mind you... that takes a little longer.
If I can manage to get out of bed... that is. 🙃
whyyyy does she look so familiar?
She's brilliant...
at 6:23 a better one would have been "One in three of us by 2020" with us being US as in USA
also at 8:15 "Henry the 5th's speechwriter" is more clever i feel like
He is adorable
Eric marry me
they look cute together!!
Not water resistant has nothing to do with what the word thirsty means.
if you were thirsty and someone offered you water, would you resist it?
there's something about that girl...
Is it that she's really smart and very pretty? Just a guess.
This is why I don't do crossword puzzles. They're easy ones are hard.
@Geertje Kik (leerling) The funny thing is that's the first time I've ever mixed those up. I'm usually the one to catch it. Probably hard to believe though based off of the context.
Geertje Kik (leerling) their shows possession and there is no form of possession in Scott’s sentence(😂we are taking this way to far)
I love her. I would marry her in a heartbeat. Not being creepy, just honest. Perfection in every way!
Will be automated.
Wasn’t he on jeopardy?
Omg globetrotter
um her body language ~ could she get any further away?
He went in way too strong. Came off creepy.
Erik's Afro needs to be a meme...
S O W O K E
He is so cute.
It's kinda hard to believe that you need so much education to do this job lol
ANNA IS SO BADASS
she reminds me of lea michele so much but we all know lea michele can't read
BloomyDays 💀
I find it funny she's yet to find an industry less dominated by old white dudes yet she's in academia, really can't think of anything MORE diverse and less old and white
Words spoken out loud require enunciation. I could not understand the person on the left when their pitch dropped into a growly tone. I guess she was subconciously mirroring her colleague, but speaking in a natural pitch aids the listener. Actually, his natural pitch is probably higher, too, but his resonance was able to overcome. I would probably be muttering and rushing my words in such a scenario, so I'm not saying I would do better, but when the vid is about words, maybe the words should be heard. Maybe it's just me. Maybe it was the sound mix?
Master O'None good note
I didn't have an issue at any point
But that’s what you want to be a woman doing things. Need to be praised for that right. But then whine about when people notice. Smh.
We couldn't even get through a 9 minute video about crossword puzzles without needlessly bringing up race.

Race exists, get over it
What's the word I'm looking for ?
Cringeworthy
lelorenzo What’s making you cringe?
