Shades of Deivi Cruz

Another day of triple victories for me with Wordle, Quordle and Octo. Needed all 13 tries for Octo, but got it done. Actually didn't get my first word until 5, which is usually the recipe for failure.

My kids already go to school in the dark in Dec/Jan/Feb. It might technically be after sunrise, but it's still really dark.

May be the best I’ve done so far. Also got Wordle in three and Quordle in 7.

Back in my philosophically more conservative days, I was more sympathetic to the idea that making things that are already illegal ‘more illegal’ is little more than a kind of virtue signaling, but as time goes by, I’m less sure our society isn’t becoming one in need of more formalized consensus virtue signals. 

Right? It's like if something isn't expressly forbidden, then it doesn't count. Everyone turns into George Costanza. 

Miserable failure at Octo today. Fourth word sent me down a rabbit hole with too many options despite having the last four letters.  Wordle and Quordle were pretty easy for me today though, and I finally beat Survivle and got up to 7 guesses. I hadn't been able to get past five guesses the other times I've played it.

And now bigger than Wordle................Bigger than Quordle...........Bigger than Octordle..................it's THOUSORDLE.............that's right, you have to guess 1,000 words and you get 1500 tries...............

Playoffs??? Why are we Tigers fans talking about playoffs?

I got super lucky with Wordle today. I had about 5 options for my last guess and picked the right one. Keeps my 100% success rate intact. Octo, not so much... 

Also, because I can't stop playing different varieties of this game, I recently discovered Survivle. The objective is not NOT get the word in six tries. The catch is, once you've eliminated letters, you can't reuse them. And once you reveal letters, you have to use those in subsequent guesses.

Once again you are pushing a false democrat narriative and another lie.  What the bill does is prohibit classroom instuction to kids 3rd grade and lower on sexual orientation and gender identity.  Why should kids that young be taught anything like that in school?  This is common sense and a great move by Florida. It should be a federal requirement.

So this is like banning Critical Race Theory in schools, insomuch as it is prohibiting something that wasn't actually happening.

Triple success today with Wordle, Quordle and Octordle.

the same people that bitch about the government being too involved in our lives, right?    What about HiPPA laws?  Going to overturn that too?   Probably. 

Then it won't be illegal to ask someone if they are vaccinated!

I breezed through Quordle, but I needed one more guess for Octo. Word two I waffled between two options and chose wrong. Also didn't get any words until guess 5, which makes it difficult.

you rang?

Nice! Yesterday I got one right on my starter word and still ended up failing. That was frustrating...

I don't think he told his daughters to lie back and enjoy it.  He told them not to do that.  At least that was my interpretation of his rambling.   

Right. He definitely says it, but then follows it up with "That's not how we roll...". He's equating giving up the election fight with laying back and enjoying it. It's a terrible analogy and he is a terrible candidate, don't get me wrong.

For those not frustrated enough by Quordle…

Back to Quordle failure. Six tries before getting one word is not a recipe for success. Wordle in three. I still have a 100% success rate there. Only taken it to six tries 2/46 times.

Cutting it close with Quordle, but getting through.

They need to fix it though so MTG is on the other side of Boebert.

I can't be the only one 🤣🤣🤣 at the implication that Trump was in any way a "strong and fearful" leader. Just typing that out makes me laugh! He was literally laughed at on the world stage.

I actually got Quordle after two days of miserable failure. Wife has a seven day streak going, which is infuriating…

I failed on Quordle for the second day in a row. I was missing the middle letter on word two and picked the wrong one...

Not directly related, but this drivers discussion reminds me of when I was first helping my son learn to drive on the highway. I told him there are two types of drivers: psychos driving faster than me and idiots driving slower than me. Assume every other vehicle either has an idiot or a psycho behind the wheel and you will be fine.

Today's Wordle was easy. It wasn't my day for Quordle though. Guess I needed more coffee first. Took me 8 tries to get my first word... Never done that poorly before.

Today's was pretty tough with lots of uncommon letters. It's never really easy though! I've never gotten it in less than 8.
