Constructor's Note
I pulled a bunch of old clues out of a notebook, so who knows if this is remotely solvable. Please let me know in the comments!

    There have been a lot of clues for 3Ds, but I think this is the best one.

      Great puzzle! I also loved the clue for 3D.

        Like everyone else, 3D is my favorite because of the timely "It Follows" use, but I also enjoyed 1A, 8A, 11D, 12D, and 24D. Personally, I'd stay away from indirects like 10A and I think 17A has a shared root (i.e., the beer is called that because it's "robust"), but they were still fun to solve.

          Thanks! I tend to agree about those two—I wanted 17A to be a little bit of a freebie since it's pretty isolated there in the middle of the grid, but I suspect I'm risking the opposite.
