Alright, so I was messing around with the NYT crossword today, as one does, and I stumbled upon a clue that really got me thinking: “early Netflix offering.” You know, back when Netflix wasn’t all about streaming. It took me a second, but then it hit me – DVDs! Remember those?
So, I typed in “DVD” and boom, it fit! That got me down a little rabbit hole of nostalgia, thinking about the good old days of getting those red envelopes in the mail. It’s so crazy to think how much things have changed, right?
My Netflix and Crossword Journey
- First, I opened up the NYT crossword app on my phone. I’m not a pro or anything, but I like to give it a shot.
- Then I scanned through the clues, looking for something easy to get me started.
- That’s when I saw it: “early Netflix offering”. My brain went straight to streaming, but then I realized they meant way back.
- I thought about Netflix’s history, remembering those iconic DVD mailers.
- I entered “DVD” into the puzzle, and yep, it was a match!
- It totally unlocked a bunch of other answers too, which was super satisfying.
It’s funny how a simple crossword clue can take you on a little trip down memory lane. Made me appreciate how far technology has come, and how much easier it is to binge-watch shows now! But hey, there was something kinda special about waiting for that DVD to arrive, wasn’t there?
