“Not Everything Revolves Around You!” – A Crossword Clue Conundrum
Ah, the joy of a good crossword puzzle! But sometimes, those pesky clues leave us scratching our heads. This week, a particularly tricky one has me stumped: “
To whom one might say ‘Not everything revolves around you!’
”
It’s a rather pointed phrase, wouldn’t you say? It screams a certain type of personality, someone who might need a gentle (or perhaps not so gentle) reminder that the world doesn’t revolve around their every whim.
Let’s break down the clue:
“To whom…”
This suggests we’re looking for a person, a role, or a type of individual.
“Not everything revolves around you!”
This implies someone who is self-centered, perhaps narcissistic or egotistical.
So, what kind of person deserves to hear this pointed statement? A coworker who constantly brags? A friend who always makes everything about them? A family member who expects everyone to cater to their every need?
The possibilities are endless, making this a truly challenging clue. But that’s what makes crosswords so much fun, isn’t it? The struggle, the mental gymnastics, and the eventual triumphant moment when the answer clicks into place.
I’m eager to hear your thoughts on this clue! What are your guesses? Share your ideas in the comments below. And, as always, good luck with your puzzle-solving!
