(I know some folks don’t time themselves, I like to because it gives me a metric, both approaches are fine!) I whooshed through from top to bottom right from the start. In fact, like I came close to beating my fastest ever Monday time. Welp, this is very much not a reflection of my skill but my wheelhouse, but that was the easiest Tuesday I’ve ever done, reflected in my time, by a very wide margin. The other side of the grid seems TAME(ST) by comparison. The whole west section is just roiling with multi-word fill, with I TOLD YA and OK BY ME sandwiching IT'S A GO, TOO BAD and OK BY ME. Toaster goes down, salivating begins (He tried it with NACHOS but too messy). Have you heard of PAVLOV's POPTART? Pretty famous experiment. BIG SPOON? BIG SPOON? Unless you are two humans spooning, there is no BIG SPOON, boo.' But otherwise the fill was acceptable and even bouncy at times. I also balked at BIG SPOON (8D: Implement for eating soup but probably not for stirring coffee), like '. quite audible, so to this YOGA clue I say, quiet shmiet. I also don't buy that YOGA is 'quiet,' LOL, have you ever been to a YOGA class? A zen retreat is quiet, YOGA sometimes features Om-ing and sometimes grunting and sometimes you are instructed to use that ujjayi breath, which is (per one YOGA DVD I own) 'like Darth Vader,' i.e. I mean, it's an intricate layout, with overlapping themers, so it's a harmless fudge, but fudge it is, nonetheless. TWO, sure, PLEASE, come on, please, you fudged that in order to get the layout to work. Speaking of things I don't buy: I don't buy the PLEASE part of ' TWO, PLEASE.' There is zero nada nothing about the emoji in question that indicates PLEASE. This wasn't really my jam, but it seems a well-made Tuesday puzzle nonetheless.

And the fill is much livelier than usual for a Tuesday. The grid has an unusual look, with its mirror symmetry, and the theme answers appear in interesting places, so even if I don't buy the black-square 'V,' I do like the overall design. I guess the emoji is supposed to make it 'fresh' but it's just a fairly easy, straightforward set of what that emoji can represent. I hope it's not part of the concept and that I'm just seeing things, because if that's supposed to be a 'V,' yeesh. Are the black squares in the center of the grid supposed to be a visual approximation of the emoji? There's a vague 'V'-like thing going on there, but it's more 'Y' than 'V'.

No matter, crosses took care of my confusion pretty easily. I knew Churchill's 'V' had to do with victory but I was looking for a slogan, like, I dunno, VICTORY OVER JAPAN or something like that. Well, at that point (very early) there were only two more to get, and I actually had trouble parsing V FOR VICTORY. At that point, I could pretty much go ahead and fill in all the theme answers without hesitation.

Challenging for me, at first, since my software doesn't handle emojis, so my clue for ' TWO, PLEASE' was just and I sat there thinking 'what in the world could a comma stand for when ordering?' But I quickly realized 'oh, they're doing the emoji thing again' and I could pretty much infer from the TWO in ' TWO, PLEASE' what emoji we were dealing with, and then PEACE SIGN came shortly thereafter and confirmed my suspicions.
