Pardon?
Three down.
What?
This crossword clue.
Oh!
Preposterous, six letters.
Crazy?
That’s five.
Foolish?
Seven.
Got it, insane!
No, it ends with D
Are you sure?
Yes, assuming nine across is right.
I know, stupid!
You calling me stupid?
No, the answer’s stupid!
Oh! But no.
Sorry, I’m out of ideas.

Thanks for the amusing banter between two “absurd” people.
That about sums them up! Cheers.
A crossword enthusiast (addict, buff, devotee, fan, fancier, habitue, maven, nut) needs a good Thesaurus by his side. 😉
Haha! Absolutely true ( authentic, bona fide, certifiable, certified, dinkum)

Entertaining tale. Of course it’s absurd 🙂

They are, especially difficult ones! I’ve uttered many a cross word!

LOL. As with many of your pieces, this is absurd! And I mean that in the very best way.

LOL… well done.

So close – if only they realised! Great fun 🙂
I know that feeling! Often I miss the most obvious answers in crosswords.

Dear Keith,
My mother used to work crossword puzzles all the time. I’m not very good at them. Love your dialogue and your graphic. 😀
Shalom,
Rochelle
Thanks so much Rochelle. I’m ok with general knowledge ones but haven’t a clue when it comes to cryptic clues!
I totally suck at crossword puzzles, to be honest. Unless they are really, REALLY simple 😉
Love this! You do make me laugh, Keith.
My Crossword Solver app and I have a go at the one in my newspaper every morning . We finished one once! Thanks for laughing with me Dale!
Woot! Way to go, Keith!
