BzznBea

clued at 6:22 by Molly

7:59 am

Shirlockc

wow, what a word thx molly

8:00 am

BzznBea

It's yummy goat cheese.

8:02 am

Shirlockc

really? goat cheese? huh, will have to keep it in mind

8:03 am

MollyL

Sorry, but I can't hang with brown cheese

8:05 am

BzznBea

Brown, blue, green...I'll eat it all.

8:05 am

MollyL

We throw the green cheese away. Not fans of mold.

8:05 am

Shirlockc

well, I'll try it all, except for the one with the live grubs <shiver>

8:06 am

MollyL

Not fans of the smelly cheeses either.

8:06 am

BzznBea

They had one on Chopped yesterday that had mites.

8:07 am

Shirlockc

yeah ... that one ... don't think i can do it ...

8:07 am

hokie carla

🤢🤮

8:08 am

BzznBea

You have probably eaten more insects than you realize if you eat organic.

8:09 am

hokie carla

I eat regular 😜

8:10 am

Shirlockc

I accept that there are insect proteins in my food in general, but i don't want live ones. i had fried cicadas once, nutty

8:12 am

MollyL

I would need to get a second job if we ate organic.

8:15 am

hokie carla

be glad you don't have to eat GF. I know some countries offer a financial break to people with celiac disease, but of course not here.

8:16 am

MollyL

Probably the same countries that offer paid maternity leave. Again, not here.

8:17 am

welki

'morning, babblers

8:20 am

hokie carla

hey welki

8:20 am

hokie carla

my signal is going in and out in case I mysteriously disappear

8:28 am

welki

i guess nimby will not be granted "word status" and remain an acronym for the time being

8:29 am

hokie carla

I have a regular g4 - what is the stat of the other?

8:29 am

welki

gy 4/10

8:30 am

BzznBea

Wordle was hard today.

8:40 am

Shirlockc

so my wordle today was the "other" word from the day before. supposedly, if you refreshed you get redirected to the NYT version which skipped the word from 2 days ago (also hard but arguably a more "foreign" word). today's was the one that was on the NYT from yesterday

8:41 am

hokie carla

I had to switch browsers because I was only getting blank screen on the old link and the NYT link. It still does not appear on my NYT games screen, which is annoying.

8:42 am

hokie carla

I don't know if they are ever going to fix the glitch. I know from reddit that I'm not the only one with this problem.

8:43 am

montreal13

got wordle in 6 today - phew !

8:44 am

hokie carla

ha! I just got it in 2.

8:44 am

hokie carla

wasn't ha-ing you, monty, just surprised myself

8:44 am

montreal13

wow, impressive carla !!

8:45 am

MollyL

Carla is a genius. Didn't you know?

8:45 am

hokie carla

but who knows if it's the same word as everyone else.

8:45 am

MollyL

What does your word mean?

8:46 am

MollyL

My word was what you put in between bathroom tiles. I got it in three, which surprised me.

8:46 am

MollyL

Lucky guess with my second try

8:46 am

montreal13

mine was in the contruction/renovation area...

8:46 am

hokie carla

yep, same word

8:47 am

MollyL

And you guessed that on your second try?

8:47 am

montreal13

you guys are the geniuses - will go back to babble - sigh..

8:47 am

hokie carla

yes, thanks to my starting word, I knew what it couldn't end with

8:48 am

hokie carla

got lucky starting with that word today, I have a few I rotate around

8:50 am

mattygroves

I had the same word as Molly - took me 4 I think

8:51 am

Shirlockc

interesting, i'm still on the original wordle site so will see if that's the word tomorrow

8:52 am

MollyL

I do not get an option for the wordle site. The only thing that comes up when I do a search for it is the New York Times site.

8:52 am

MollyL

When is it going to stop being free?

8:52 am

welki

i hadn't looked at wordle today - but now, i'd bet i can get it in one or two

8:53 am

Shirlockc

mine is the powerlanguage.co.uk one and i'm not refreshing!

8:53 am

Gillie

The original wordle site has been automatically redirecting to the New York Times for a few days now.

8:54 am

maggiej

Probably when NYT adds it to their game menu. Will require a subscription then perhaps. I read somewhere the game was sold to the NYT.

8:54 am

hokie carla

welki, I hope so since you saw the def 😁😜🤣

8:54 am

hokie carla

I thought they said it was going to stay free?

8:54 am

Shirlockc

it better not lose my stats if it redirects

8:54 am

welki

well yeah, carla 🤣🤣🤣

8:55 am

hokie carla

but I hope they add it to their game menu

8:56 am

mattygroves

Mine also redirects to NYT

8:56 am

MollyL

I thought the word at morewordle was harder today.

8:56 am

MollyL

You will lose your stats when it redirects

8:56 am

maggiej

I did

8:56 am

Gillie

It hasn't lost mine

8:56 am

mattygroves

I kept my stats!

8:56 am

hokie carla

yes, but I had failed 2 so I didn't care about my stats

8:57 am

hokie carla

and like I said, mine redirected to a blank screen, so I can't play on Chrome anymore

8:57 am

MollyL

I don't care about my stats, but I noticed they zeroed out when it switched. I guess some of you are special.

8:57 am

phaeton

hello...may I have stats for the lone M?

9:00 am

maggiej

lol

9:01 am

hokie carla

also, did someone steal molly's password? I thought she was anti-wordle.

9:02 am

MollyL

No, it just gets talked about SO MUCH here. Like it's the coolest thing since sliced bread. That and "the bee"

9:06 am

hokie carla

speaking of the bee, I really forked that up yesterday

9:08 am

montreal13

bbl for last 33 - have a nice day all - poof

9:35 am

MollyL

Plenty of people call me mo4 and mo5. I want the full on tiara.

9:54 am

leighprefect

it's the po 5/20 for sure. just need to figure it out. i'm never good at using the points to figure it out

9:55 am

hokie carla

I just tried it and it was a word. apparently disparaging name for Brits in NZ. ends in sometimes vowel.

9:56 am

rururocks

po5/20 is what apples call their mom

9:56 am

leighprefect

10:01 am

MollyL

10:01 am

rururocks

the kids never had a chance they were always baked

10:01 am

rururocks

only if you turn them over molly :D

10:02 am

MollyL

I wouldn't want to fritter away my time doing that

10:02 am

rururocks

we could call you pippin longstockings

10:03 am

rururocks

when you're older though we'd just call you Granny Smith

10:04 am

cybernan

stuck -- peeling out for breakfast

10:04 am

windingwake

But she has a tiara! Shouldn’t we call her something fancier like Honey Crisp?

10:05 am

MollyL

You all are getting to the core of it

10:05 am

windingwake

Thanks, Molly. We appreciate the slice of recognition

10:06 am

rururocks

it's like we have in-cider information

10:10 am

rururocks

it's hilarious if you google apples all you can get is iphones and watches and not the fruit

10:11 am

cybernan

as long as you don't get calvados about it

10:20 am

rururocks

that was a good one nan

10:20 am

rururocks

people who joke about apples are great at math.. they'[re always talking about Pi

10:21 am

Sophie512

Good Morning. Nice to see everyone is joking today. Beautiful weather here in middle TN.

Sophie512

hurshy I had to look it up, too

11:16 am

hurshy

mk thanks

11:17 am

hurshy

gotta love it when you click the ? button and the dictionary's got no idea either

11:17 am

hurshy

aha, it is a kind of CHEESE

11:19 am

MollyL

Thou shalt not blurt

11:20 am

hurshy

how is that a relevant comment at the moment

11:20 am

hurshy

it's not like everyone's going "oh of course, that cheese" because nobody has heard of it

11:21 am

hurshy

and anyway you happen to be very against blurting, but not everyone is, so...

11:24 am

cybernan

11:29 am

hurshy

ha

11:40 am

hurshy

i can't believe i need 6 more fours though

11:41 am

cybernan

I've come to the conclusion that we need to add an s to every 3 letter word and a y to every 4 letter word, no matter how ridiculous it seems

11:50 am

Sophie512

you're right, I just did that with a Y

11:51 am

cybernan

*!*~*!* a lot of weird and questionable words today

11:52 am

Sophie512

1:56 pm

penquis

2:01 pm

MollyL

I wouldn't mind having something that automatically mopped the kitchen floor for me. With all the advances we have made, why don't we have those robot maids like Rosey in The Jetson's.

2:02 pm

penquis

i wouldn't mind one either....actually, i would like a robot housekeeper who cooked and cleaned.... ;o)

2:18 pm

MollyL

If you're gonna dream, dream big.

2:20 pm

penquis

2:23 pm

windingwake

And now for the ceremonial checking for the -S’s!

2:26 pm

MollyL

It's ceremonial? Should we play Olympics music?

2:26 pm

windingwake

Hmm, not a terrible idea

2:27 pm

windingwake

Either that or the Benny Hill theme

2:28 pm

MollyL

I will go for Olympics music. Not a Brit TV fan.

2:28 pm

windingwake

And an animation where me and the S’s are crossing hallways and peeking out doors at different times
