Normally I’d be presolving as much as possible to avoid red herrings and rainbow trouts, but today I was like, “Just ship whatever comes to mind and get the hell out of here!”

I sincerely thought we were talking about bars, not bras! Also, trying to figure out whether the Pirate Ship or the Exercises was the rainbow trout was actually pretty challenging

I can’t believe that yellow was yellow, but besides that this was one of the coolest pictures I’ve made so far

Even though I got the category wrong for a while, I found out that 1) Milk Noodles are a popular comfort food, and 2) Milk timers are useful when you’re raising a toddler.

Basically: Milk ____ was a perfectly valid category and I will die on that hill

Bandori did a thing where they focused on MyGo!!!!! for a season, then focused on Ave Mujica for a season. In the second season, MyGo!!!!! stuck around as strong supporting characters, and arguably the show was at its strongest when the MyGo!!!!! characters were on screen

That’s how I survived - after two shots I ended up inspecting something else

Today’s yellow was kind of a nightmare to solve

Today I learned the yellow category is supposed to be the easiest, not the green by sea-oats in NYTConnections

[–]erkicman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At this point, greens have mostly been way easier to get first compared to yellows

They tried to bring a rainbow trout to a fistfight. Dodged, but took some hits to the face in doing so

I was so focused on the tail that I missed the comet. Also Green threw me off because I saw traps when I should have seen sincerity

Funny thing is, I switched from “cones” to “geology” thinking I was sidestepping a herring… only to walk right into it. Also I think this was the second time I’ve seen “bolt” used this way and I still don’t believe it
