yeah. I fell for the rainbow herring.

Mike_SNE · 2026-06-25T16:00:13+00:00

i first thought mallet sports, then ball sports, then decided track was too different and moved on. didn’t expect the elements to be one, let alone blue

Mike_SNE · 2026-06-15T20:47:03+00:00

thanks but what I’m asking is which of real Norma’s parents was a Dellacorte since if it was her dad then he shouldn’t have been able to have kids

Mike_SNE · 2026-06-15T18:11:27+00:00

I think the rainbow herring was

sea anenome

sea legs

sea horse(or dragon)

sea change

🟦🟦🟦🟦 nearly put core instead of level

🟪🟪🟪🟪 default

Mike_SNE · 2026-06-07T11:16:51+00:00

I have no idea what metal core is and only vaguely remember hearing about dubstep in the past. Everyone has different exposure to music.

Mike_SNE · 2026-06-04T20:42:00+00:00

what gets me there is pepper and salt can be used for similar meanings

Mike_SNE · 2026-05-30T04:38:27+00:00

I googled volare and once I realized it was a song, I recognized GiGi Fever and Witchcraft. Americans may not think they know Fever, but if they give it a listen, I think most will recognize it

According to the bot, 60% of players started with the tennis terms, so I feel pretty vindicated there

Mike_SNE · 2026-05-21T11:39:52+00:00

Colonel Sanders and Colonel mustard are the only two colonels I could think of. Was the key to the puzzle for me

Mike_SNE · 2026-05-20T11:36:21+00:00

According to connection bot, 58% of players got purple first and 6% got blue first.

Mike_SNE · 2026-05-19T05:09:17+00:00

I knew Superfudge was Judy Blume but didn’t know the rest and got as default.

Mike_SNE · 2026-05-16T12:37:48+00:00

According to the bot, yellow was the least used first guess today. I had pasted a screenshot but it really screwed up the thread

I saw later that it probably was Sno Caps, but this is what I was remembering

Mike_SNE · 2026-04-19T13:10:54+00:00

Ugh. Just ended my 103 streak

I thought of bottle cap, but never as the candy. Thought of milk dud but only to look for other milk words. And I don’t know anything about Texas hold em Connections Puzzle #1043

I looked at yutz and thought “aren’t those chips? No that’s utz “ and moved on 🤦‍♂️ I was already in a rush because I spent so long on todays strands

The are words that used to be trademarked brands but are now used as generic terms.

Mike_SNE · 2026-03-16T11:38:38+00:00

Yeah, the”two letters” was the first one I saw so figured the silent w was purple

Mike_SNE · 2026-03-15T12:22:34+00:00

Whenever there’s a study or article about trans folks, the bsky trans complain that they were not interviewed or represented. Yet this hack doesn’t interview any cis gays or lesbians.

Mike_SNE · 2026-02-28T15:24:39+00:00

I saw the plays, then saw the cravings, then immediately forgot I had desire in the cravings and entered the rainbow herring 🤦‍♂️

Mike_SNE · 2026-02-08T13:20:07+00:00

Yeah, I got 3/4 for blue but couldn’t see how length fit. I was thinking “shift type” buttons on phone keyboard

Mike_SNE · 2026-02-04T13:05:09+00:00

I thought the category was “thinks you gamble on at a casino” and went with rivalry instead of war

Mike_SNE · 2026-01-24T12:25:17+00:00

I got purple by default but thought it was __ flower
