CLIFF FIFING FIGGING FILCH FILCHING FILING FILL FILLING FINCH FINING FINNING FLIC FLINCH FLINCHING FLING FLINGING GLIFF GLIFFING INFILL INFILLING

Two pangrams in this tiny puzzle: FLINCHING and FILCHING. I am fond of the word 'filching'.

GLIFF/GLIFFING is a bit of a strech. I am not sure how I feel about British-only (frighten) or Scottish (glimpse) dialect words that would not likely be heard anywhere else in the world.

FLIC is also bullshit - French slang for cops. I like 'f***ing pigs', preferrably with 'defund' or 'disarm' directly preceding. But it's good to have obscure options that don't get you shot.

I felt it was not a very satisfying puzzle.

Another day.
