Shockwaves In The WORDLE-Sphere

________________________________________________________________________________________________

Another streak
bites the dust
 😱  !!!  😱

BUT
this was only
a 25-day streak,
unlike the three
streaks of
seventy-five days
or more
that preceded it

  1. I know false humility when I see it, especially when it
    comes from one of those 99th percentile gamers.

    1. I have the kind of humility that requires a bullhorn

    3. Not in the land of Oliverio ...
      I usually do it much closer to midnight,
      after first encountering NYTimes Spelling Bee
      but this morning...the most obvious word was
      A-M-A-Z-O-N

      However...AMAZONIAN was unacceptable
      despite qualifying, letter-wise

      I believe this is because the game's creator
      Little Sammy Yanovsky
      has a serious problem with tall women
