NYT Strands today (game #469) - the answers (Image credit: New York Times) The answers to today's Strands, game #469, are CHALUPA CRAWDAD POPCORN PAPARAZZI POPSICLE SPANGRAM: FATHERS DAY My rating: Moderate My score: 1 hint As obvious as it seems in hindsight it took me two words before I realised that todays theme was a homage to the worlds fathers, with a selection of words featuring either pa, papa, dad or pop. I spent a while wondering what Mexican food (CHALUPA) has got to do with shellfish (CRAWDAD) before I got it. Although there is a sentiment that FATHERS DAY is merely a holiday to generate some summertime cash for the greeting card industry, I say any day that allows you to appreciate family is a good thing. I do, however, think that some companies go too far trying to climb on board that dad train chocolate and whisky is one thing, but a department store I was in last week had a sign beside a desktop printer that said Give your father what he really wants this Fathers Day. I think I can speak on behalf of most fathers when I say that what we really want is not a printer. How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below.
