Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsThe NYT Sunday crossword puzzle is the dumbest thing I've ever seen in the Sunday Times.
It's thematic approach this weekend is so stupid it's almost not worth bothering with. I didn't find it clever, I found it nonsensical.
Don't ever publish another one of these again, NYT...
