SOS - But they're in so much trouble the last S fell apart before help arrived.
#6: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on May 28, 2019
Nobody's close yet.
#7: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 29, 2019 [SPOILER]
Okay, maybe that's not an X, maybe it is a t. So I see the letters c-o-s-t out of order, not straight. It's not a very common term for most folks, but if you are talking about sustainable energy or tariffs, you might be familiar with the term "displaced cost."
#8: Norma Dee (norm0908) on May 29, 2019
Wow, Teresa. Right or wrong, I think it's a terrific answer.
#9: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on May 29, 2019 [SPOILER]
alphabet soup?
#10: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on May 29, 2019 [SPOILER]
Teresa is close, but that's not the word. The word shown is (mostly) in order.
#11: Steve (stevieb) on May 29, 2019 [SPOILER]
Scot free?
#12: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on May 29, 2019 [SPOILER]
Scot-free it is!
#13: Steve (stevieb) on May 29, 2019
Yay!
#14: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 30, 2019
Aha!

It also looks like Gujarati.
#16: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Feb 26, 2020
I don't understand, Aurelian
#17: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on Feb 26, 2020
The overall picture looks like a character in Indian text. It sort of resembles some writing in the Gujarati language to me. Does this clarify?
