"Ridiculous!"

Answer:

MYEYE

Hint:

Think of a playful exclamation that sounds like a body part you might roll.

Explanation:

The clue "Ridiculous!" hints at the answer "MYEYE" by playing on the phrase "my eye," which is an old-fashioned exclamation of disbelief or surprise, similar to saying "nonsense!" or "that's ridiculous!" The wordplay relies on interpreting "my eye" as a single word rather than two separate words, making it a clever twist on a common expression.
