NYT Strands today (game #372) – the answers
The answers to today’s Strands, game #372, are…
- VOLUME
- BACK
- POWER
- HOME
- MUTE
- GUIDE
- CHANNEL
- SPANGRAM: REMOTE CONTROL
- My rating: Easy
- My score: 1 hint
Losing a REMOTE CONTROL is really frustrating. As a scatterbrained person it’s something I do a lot. It’s almost a superpower – well if superpowers were useless and annoying.
Losing a remote is a great example of how powerless we are without technology – with the TV remaining on (or off) and stuck until the blessed “zapper” is located.
I’ve found ours in the fridge before and I once took it to work, leaving my wife at home having to watch National Geographic all day (there are worse channels it could have been stuck on) or pull the plug.
The worst remotes are the tiny ones. I’ve gone through three for my Amazon TV Fire Stick, all possibly eaten by the couch (or a cat) but vanished forever after lengthy hours-long searches. I could tape an AirTag to it, but this seems an extreme measure considering how it’s a housebound object.
How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below.
