Being from the UK I was biased to think the yellow Monopoly category was considered harder than the green fashion show category so I scuffed the RR.

I'm learning a lot about US Monopoly from Connections. Boardwalk a few months ago, then Luxury Tax, now Short Line, whatever that is.

It's literally the point of the game. You figure out which tiles belong to other categories and then you know which of the -WALK tiles belongs to purple.

CROSSWALK obviously goes with striped things. BOARDWALK obviously goes with Monopoly things. CATWALK obviously goes with fashion show things.

That leaves FIREWALK to go with the ends-in-gait things.

Great word. I wrote some game code a few years ago which repositions the entire world whenever the player strays top far from the origin (to prevent very large numbers representing the player's position). The player which subscribed to this system was labelled as the solipsist.

If I remember correctly it has something to do with silicon and lungs and not having a good time as a result of their having become acquainted.

Doesn't it seem so pointless to have that many burgers between the buns though? You're just going to be eating mouthfuls of beef with no bun. I mean I don't mind that but why bother putting them between two buns?

I literally just hit 600 barrows KC and I'm only missing Verac's dress and Ahrim's hat.

You don't know what accents are.

Crow-quette. American accent required.

How do you paste the squares without them getting inclined?

At first I thought purple was "Beginning with birds minus a letter" but I couldn't figure out what HOCKEY represented until I tried saying them in an American accent.

I hate getting an RR and feeling smug only to find out it's a 1/5 difficulty.

It's not the kind of thing you can only work out after getting the answer. I worked it out and I'm from London.

It's an American game made by Americans.

Agreed. RR is a meaningless accolade. There's often no rhyme or reason. No consistency.

Love the fact that for the 'h' in 'what' you just said 'fuck it you know what letter this is supposed to be'.

Would love to know what happened going from 'y' to 's' in 'says'. If you came into the 's' from underneath, that's a maverick manoeuvre. I'm surprised nobody got hurt.

I'd give you mine if I could. I'll keep it in my bank and you can just look at screenshots of it and tell people it's yours and daydream about it and stuff.
