"I'm out of time!" (Themeless)

◆◆ · By ariel haymarket · Published 2021-03-20T18:38:26.716Z

Constructor's Note
Huzzah! My first proper midi! And it took ages to figure out how to get the autofill to work with the seed entry.
Tips appreciated to help this Texan keep taking estrogen! Warning - puzzles often crass, anarchic, and approaching NC-17 territory.

    For those wondering, seed was 2D.

        And of course 20 hours after I hit submit puzzle I spot two issues with the clues.

        The fill is great! I appreciate not taking the easy route on some of the clues, but a couple left me scratching my head. Factor into this comment that I am an old hooman. Overall, I give it a 9 - it's got a nice beat and it's easy to dance to.

          Yeah, the reference in 28D is BASICALLY from the early 00s and started off rather obscure in the first place. Calling it a Natick would be fair.

            Oddly enough, I was pretty big into HSR back then. I could remember "Del Tacos", just not what it was referencing.
