People are more than willing to offer unwanted help with crossword puzzles.  It seems like whenever I have a crossword in front of me in a relatively public place (say my desk at work or a table at lunch), people like to lean over and tell me their thoughts on answers.  The thing about crossword puzzles is that I don't do them to complete them.  I mean that's the overall goal, but it's not the primary task at hand.  I'd rather sit around and think about it, struggle with some clues, then feel like Superman (a nerdier version of the hero) when I complete the whole thing.  It's not like a homework assignment or some other menial task that I just want to get done so it's done.  I think I offended a girl at work when I told her, "I don't want your help."  I thought about it for a while and decided I couldn't have said it another way. #entertainment
