Es ist Freitag, das bedeutet, dass es fast Zeit ist für Unmengen Alkohol, Netflix, Happy Pills und – wenn Du Glück hast – Schlaf. Bevor Du jedoch deinem Gehirn irreparable Schäden zufügst, haben wir etwas, um dich zu unterhalten, während Du auf den Beginn des Wochenendes wartest.
Das folgende Kreuzworträtsel ist ursprünglich in der zweiten Ausgabe des Azarius Magazine erschienen. In einem exklusiven Interview hatte der teuflische Erfinder eben jenes folgendes zu sagen:
“Sich ein Kreuzworträtsel auszudenken ist schwer. Sehr schwer. Man glaubt es wird schon Spass machen, Spiele etc. ...Du weisst schon, aber es stellte sich heraus, dass es nur minimal lustiger ist als zu Hause die Steuererklärung zu machen. Wenn Du dich also wunderst, warum es so viele schwachsinnige Wörter gibt und es eigentlich auch wirklich schwierig ist, bedenke, dass Shrooms und Kreuzworträtsel KEINE gute Kombination sind. Wirklich nicht.“
"Und das Rätsel gibt es nur auf Englisch, denn dieses auch noch ins Deutsche zu übersetzen schmerzt mehr als auf ein Rad ohne Sattel zu springen. Viel Erfolg!"
