I'm still a bit of a newbie here...now that I have the answers to each line...what do I do next? I'm not seeing what I should be seeing to find an answer. Any hints?
You solved this puzzle in 5 minutes and 36 seconds and were the 83rd Tanga member to solve it. You earned 28 points for solving this.
This was one of the more (to me) obvious Hard Puzzles I've hit. It did take a bit of googling for some of them, though. But once I got the words... no problems.
And the answer is properly in theme, if you think about it right.
Perhaps the answer is too obscure for some people, but it definitely fits. Check out the first, fifth and sixth. They are similar to the answer. It works on a slang level and on the symbolic level. Go metric.

Okay, I see something I recognize with the last five letters, but the first three don't seem to make anything.
EDIT: NM, I can't count to three.

Got the blanks, now what? They make no sense.
Edit: Never mind. Got it right after I typed that.

from filling the blanks do you get two words? I have a 3 letter and a 5 letter, but I can't get them to make a final answer.

Good straightforward puzzle, but the answer isn't quite a match with the theme, though many think it is.

[43] If you're thinking of a two-word answer to that math expression, just type in the second word.
