Yes, their crossword puzzle team must be made up of sadists with cosmic IQs bent on dashing our illusions of our own mental prowess, lol. And that Will Shortz? Their maniacal nerdmaster, er, I mean wordmaster.

But seriously, I like the Sunday ones best because of their size. I prefer larger puzzles to smaller ones for some reason.
