Jumble Spoiler – 03/04/21

Lockhorns | Jan 18, 2017 | RealClear

Visual Description:  “Turn out the lights, the party’s over!”

DJEUG  =  JUDGE,  TRBHE  =  BERTH,  DMELOU  =  MODULE,  SCCUTA  =  CACTUS   —   Giving us:  JDEBRHMUEACTS

Clue/Question:  She got angry when he brought it up.  He should have avoided the – – –

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966) - Rotten Tomatoes

Answer:  SUBJECT MADHER

(Kind of a Tarzan pun!  Her Mad!  LOL!  I guess you’d call this a fairly challenging Jumble.  It certainly resulted in a stretch of a stinky pun!  But I like it.

Every single jumble came up as new for me, despite all the clue words already being on the ralis95 clue word database.  I was able to see them all right away.  The answer letter layout was a creditably cryptic thirteen letter jumble.  It did a splendid job of disguising the final answer.  The way the clue/question was heading led me to SUBJECT.  And, the DERHMA led to the punny part.

I think the guys must have been watching “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf” when they came up with this Jumble.  I definitely see drinking and bickering.  It looks like Marv definitely opened a can of worms, but the Missus certainly doesn’t seem to be any shrinking violet.  With the way that she’s talking to him I’d say she’s more of a shrew.  The neighbors better run for their lives!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
