I am absolutely a fan of this vod. A rant at the start, an hour of crossword and obviously the egg banter and hopefully anecdotes will just brighten me up.
Same lmao How it started: "wow it's really enjoyable and relaxing watching this man fill in all these clues with his vast trivia knowledge" How it's going: "JUICE ME SQUEEZE ME BUY ME FREEZE ME PILL ME GARLIC ME"

17:23 "Six-sided state ... ... ... Hexafornia?" As someone who has like 40 unsolved crosswords open on his phone at any given time, I hope you come back to doing these on stream one day.
26:20 Mad respect for that Rushmore reference. As soon as he got "ORs" I thought of the exact same quote since I love that movie, so hearing it a second later from NL put a huge smile on my face.
This is so much more fun when egg has no idea what he's doing and is genuinely uncomfortable at his lack of a seem. Also so much more rewarding when he eventually gets it.
"Did you know in America, you like, elect district attorneys, and like, judges as well? That's the craziest shit I've like, ever heard in my entire life." FUCKING SAME. Why the hell is this a thing here? It's so stupid.
NL not understanding that an abbreviation in the clue means an abbreviation in the answer even after being explicitly told is both hilarious and frustrating.
Man he feels like a boomer thanks to his difficulties but here I am, a young millennial, watching and loving every second of it. I have never even considered playing a crossword but these videos have aged me thirty years in like two days.
I spent so long trying to understand before getting it. Combine the second word of each starred clue with "chance", so it's fighting chance, last chance, fat chance, off chance, and second chance.
Holy shit... This was a close one. After some thorough investigation, I would still say his sight is still SLIGHTLY to the right. I had to send this one to the labs folks. He was staring straight into the camera but if you place the center of the snapshot, it's slight on the side of his face that would make the overall glancing be to his right. Still on a streak baby!
The Bible is the most influential book ever written lol... NL comments on the importance of the Bible, but as an atheist it is still very beneficial to read the Bible, given how much historical depth and influence in literature, pop culture, regular culture, and politics it has.
@NL we elect the judges and prosecutors cause they hold prosecutorial discretion, if youre in a super liberal city they prob wouldnt want someone tough on drugs to choose which cases to pursue

the puzzle trying to convince you that "neatnik" is a term anyone has ever used before is truly bizarre energy
please never stop making these (': made my morning coffee just to see you posted an hour long crossword video, it's gonna be a good day.
:(
i like your shirt❤️
Unlucky
Hahhahahahaha this didn't go wrong
This comment aged like fine milk, I hope the milk will become wine one day...
The tangent about the 'G' slayed me.

Funny how crossword is literally my first exposure to NL and then it slowly evolve to crab meta in SAP,
Trully a world we live in
Same lmao

welcome to the ride bald brother
my exposure to NL was his binding of isacc like 10 years ago lmao, stopped watching 5 years ago, and then started again at the chess meta
Same exact experience over here
"Why are they putting that shit in soap, man!? I'm not bread"
What a poet.
Truly lifechanger
I love that NL gets all these puns at the drop of a hat and then goes on a rant about what kind of poky thing 5 card stud is.
"I feel like they're asking me what's Belgian for 'mine'."
Sure, if Metz was in Belgium and Belgian was a language.
Exactly my thoughts 🤣
as a french person, that was hilarious
Technically it would make sense if Metz were in Belgium

also 18:40 i ugly laughed at that one.
Straight bricked rn
@@jankytown9944 do you know what this means
It's amazing that SQUEEZE was crossed with EGG
He's finally Washington Postpilled, I've waited so long for this moment.
NL not understanding that an abbreviation in the clue means an abbreviation in the answer even after being explicitly told is both hilarious and frustrating.
I was screaming internally when he kept putting “Lod” for the fox and the hound question. Favourite childhood movie right there
This is the most passive aggressive crossword puzzle solving I have ever seen.
22:13
"i thought it was just her family name, had no idea it was her alma mater"
how is he so funny
House of leaves shout out was unexpected, respect
I want NL to try his hand at a cryptic crossword and watch, in realtime, his brain melt out through his ears.
Actually, the Bible is cool and helps me complete my crosswords; I need those. Sorry, I don't know the actors on Mad Men
Also, Lot's a dude
well house of leaves will help you complete them faster
23:17 “I thought it was just like her family name. I didn’t know it was her alma mater.”😂
nice house of leaves shoutout, great book
The undercover cops diaper bit killed me
My man out here not knowing what stud is when he is one.
Perfect Saturday morning. Love doing these before watching each solve to see how small brain I am compared to the big egg himself
Man he feels like a boomer thanks to his difficulties but here I am, a young millennial, watching and loving every second of it. I have never even considered playing a crossword but these videos have aged me thirty years in like two days.
He said farewell in so many languages but spanish lol.
oh this is so pogged he's finally doing the washington post ones. can't wait for him to try an evan birnholz puzzle
Cross me, down me, you piece.
12:55 - “Like, if there’s gonna be one book in every hotel room, why does it gotta be the King James Bible?…”
My godmother’s name is Vida, I’m putting on the miles Davis as we speak
god your crossword playlist is the best ASMR. thanks NL :)
"Your dad? Me when your Dad's around?"
Big fan NL sprinting through his mind palace for a "ur mum" alt for that one
I kind of lost it when he didn't realize silly putty is stored in the egg
NL’s commentary is truly something else; wish all the best him
I saw that crossword video come up in my recommendation with 13 minutes ago, the pure dopamine injected into my cerebrum I couldn’t explain
Oh but the one, that came after. The egg cracked under its mighty size.
Somebody just posted in the HoL subreddit a few weeks ago that their AirBNB had a copy on the nightstand.
aw shit, my dude finally moved onto the wapo crosswords, the real dark souls starts here
The way he flies around the board hecks me up
That last puzzle was wild.
Today I learned that Hi-C is owned by Minute Maid which itself... is owned by Coca-Cola.
I live for NL's crossword videos
never thought I would be yelling adios at my monitor this saturday morning but here I am...
It was smee and tod on the last one for me
The e-ticket rant definitely makes NL sound like George Costanza
Thanks! I love seeing you destroy crosswords.
anyone remember poison mushroom? oh how far hes gone. makes me feel like a proud dad
Im addicted to these videos
Need some more crossword content.
Logged on and pogged on, a highly blessed video.
I always solve the puzzle before I watch NL do it. That Wednesday puzzle took me an hour over the course of two days. Brutal.
this took over my reccomendations
eating some Italian Wedding Soup and watching this man do work.
mehhh, i do the crossword in my local paper each day and apparently they just reprint the ones from the la times :p so i remember all these
Expected NL to break into Rock the Casbah when he figured out the Raga clue
I miss these :(
Please do more!!! I’m missing this series man 🥺❤️
northern!! i REALLY want more of these and sporacle whenever youve finished elden ring!! i LOVE these videos!!!
The fox in Fox and the Hound is called Red in Italy so I spent the entire puzzle trying to fit clues around it and then I was wrong.
Spud poker is just a fork
This guy sounds like he could do a good Zoidberg impression
That the absolute Isaac god didn't know the answer to "Son of Jacob" immediately.
It's so sad
48:36 "could be skirrrt"
It was.
check out wapo's sunday crosswords if you want a Big Challenge
lmao borrowing a crossword book from the library
I'd love to see NL do cryptics
He would get so frustrated at first but with the help of online solvers showing him the meta (like cw genius) it would be fire
NL! we need some more crosswords!
I love cross words so much
How long until I have to have a license to do simple necessities, like driving to the library to borrow a book of crosswords, smh my head
31:06 anglophile unilingual bit
1:02:36 Blacksmiths fashion horseshoes.
It's all about the mets baby! It's all about the mets!
...I use STK for stock all the time. It is a drafting standard
I don’t get the theme in the first puzzle, what does “chance encounter” have to do with the end of the other starred clues?
I spent so long trying to understand before getting it. Combine the second word of each starred clue with "chance", so it's fighting chance, last chance, fat chance, off chance, and second chance.
I just spent 5 minutes counting how many squares there were.
185 squares
Gotta try Wall Street journal crosswords for a real challenge, especially the Saturday ones
These are my favorite videos
5:01 Say what? Greetings from Belgium :)

Naura hurt my soul.

love watching these videos (UA-cam)

I would love for you to do cryptics

Can someone explain ‘puckered up’?
"Bussed" is an old-fashioned word for "kissed".

You don't really do that here, in Chile at least. In most forms as far as I know you won't write a tittle, you just write your full name lol
Crossword day!
Wow good video you got here bud.
