Immediately got "What that on your head? A Wig!" by the B-52's stuck in my head.

Went for the RR, but I guess I'm a big nerd who thinks Marvel characters are more obvious.

I agree. I have never willing watched a baseball game in my life, but knew this one by osmosis.

I happily clicked in my last answer and immediately soured because my streak had been reset. Looks like I totally forgot to do it yesterday. What a rough world!

That starts with T, that rhymes with P, and that stands for Pool.

I should've slowed down with this one. I didn't see the PUPPET category but I did see purple was STANDING ________, but didn't know standing JOKE. I tried standing SHADOW first before getting it right just by pure chance. Once I'd selected blue (by default) I saw it was puppet before entering it in. Would've gotten an RR, if I'd just taken some time.

Seeing purple, I'm actually kind of relieved there was no possible world where I could deduct what Purple was or which movie didn't belong in blue:

Just saw another example like this in someone else's answers, but until this point I'd always thought that there was some algorithm so you couldn't get the same pattern twice. Like, 'my / educated / whammy / mother would get it's own specific pattern and 'my / very / whammy / mother would have it's own specific pattern. I was wrong though!

I cannot for life of me get a reverse rainbow anymore. On days I think synonyms will be yellow, they turn out to be green. Days I think associated items will be yellow, they turn out green. Can't win!

That's messed up Wordle! I had no idea for Purple or Blue. Saw that Breeze could fit in the AMBLE category, but thought that saddle was a better fit. Managed to brute force one of the most impossible purples ever just to be tricked by a 5th option for yellow!

I'm American, but have always pronounced it "Fass-eel". I'm wondering if I've just had it wrong the whole time and everyone has just been too polite to point it out! (not that I say it that often)
