1. It's believable to me...
The longer puzzles are far easier than ones like a five letter word for THING.

2. Yeah, I used to do that when I was younger - "What's WRONG with these assholes?"
Curiously, "What's WRONG with these assholes?" was never one of the phrases. Go figure.

3. I love the stunned silence when she asks "Can I solve?"
:rofl:

4. I was pretty sure what it was, too... although...
.
.
.
...I never would have had the confidence to solve it at that point.
.
.
.
She said "L", because the first word was either "I'll" or "I've".
.
.
.
Since it was "I've" the second word HAD to be "got" (although,
MUCH less likely, it could have been -- ironically -- "had").
Third word HAD to be "a", no matter what.
.
Given that, with the one "L" that was showing... that solution
popped into my head just before she said it -- though, as I said
before, I wouldn't have had the cajones to solve it without at
LEAST one more confirming letter (might've bought an "E" and then
solved it).

I know.

"Word Nerd".

I prefer "poet".
