It's April Fools Day today, so we could expect something a little different in the puzzle today. And lo, we find that someone has started it! I don't know about you, but when I pick up a puzzle that has been started by someone else, I ignore what has been entered. I did the same thing today and got pretty much the same result - some previous answers were right, some were wrong.
If we set aside the penciled-in answers, we see a theme of INFLIGHTMAGAZINE, SEATBACKPOCKET, PRIORPASSENGER, and the unsatisfyingly incomplete RETURNTRAYTABLES. Plus the word GUESS (What you might do if you don't know an answer. And maybe even ENDRESULTS (Final outcomes)?
My brother really hates the idea of an INFLUENCER (Big shot on the internet), so that brought a smile. (I think he's just jealous of me being a crossword influencer. :P) HIPS (Body parts that swivel) brought to mind the lyric "The world moves on a woman's hips. The world moves and it swivels and bops." And come to think of it, that same brother also hates David Byrne, for some reason.
An interesting Tuesday.
