He's 3 streets across and 2 down.

He was a one-hint wonder!
Thanks.
I’m not 6 down, 3 across.
Reading a newspaper, casually turn to my little sister and ask "can you help me with a crossword puzzle? The clue is Postman's bag"
Her: "how many letters?"
Me: "LOADS OF THEM!"
If you're looking for the headstone go 9 down 3 across.
I don't quite recall his name...
I think I was P something T something something...
Dad: hmmmm, I'm stuck on a clue
Me: bet I can help
Dad: ok, 4 across, the clue is overladen postman
Me: how many letters?
Dad: a blooming sack full
Aunt: What is Sporty Spice's name?
Me (without hesitation): Sporty Spice. DUHHHH.
He doesn’t drink, it's just that he's really bad at crossword puzzles...
But it is a five letter clue for a crossword puzzle.
Now sails are going through the roof

I was at the beach and my wife and I were doing a crossword puzzle. She is a teacher and much more vocabularily knowledgable than I am. After filling in a few, one of the words she answered was unknown to me.
Me - "Babe, is that a word?"
Her - "Yalta? it's a city."
Me - "Yalta?" and as nonchalantly as is possible, I say "Why I Yalta."
She confusingly looked at me trying to understand what had just come out. She then laughs, proclaims "you are such an idiot," and continues laughing for a good while after, even to this day. Daily stupid joke quota filled.
Dad (doing a crossword puzzle): What is a music note with four sharps?
Me: I don't know, but I bet it ain't flat and dull!
My dad just stared at his paper and sighed.
My brother was doing a crossword puzzle and asks, "What unit of measurement do they use for sod?"
My response: "Yards."
She was working on a crossword puzzle.. "How do you spell seven in French?"
My reply: "S-E-V-E-N space I-N space F-R-E-N-C-H"
My brother: "Dad, have you ever seen the Crazy Horse monument?"
Dad: "No, but I do crossword puzzles."
He wasn't a big drinker, he was just really bad at crossword puzzles.
