Understanding Today's Crossword Puzzle

The clue "Social pariah is a something of a people person" leads us to the answer "LEPER." Here's why this clue corresponds to the answer:

  1. Social Pariah: A pariah is someone who is an outcast or considered a social reject in society. This part of the clue indicates an individual who is shunned or isolated by others.
  2. Is a Something of a People Person: This phrase hints at an ironic contrast. A "people person" typically refers to someone who enjoys interacting with others and is sociable. However, the word "something" suggests a deviation or contradiction from the typical understanding. In this context, it implies that the individual, despite the desire or ability to engage with others, is perceived negatively by society.
Therefore, putting the two parts of the clue together, "Social pariah is a something of a people person," aptly describes a leper. In historical and cultural contexts, lepers were often isolated due to their contagious disease, resulting in social exclusion and being seen as outcasts despite potentially being inclined toward social interaction.
