I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Also failed connections, only got yellow

Did get the Wordle, but, come on, that ain't right

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Same. I felt like my brain was soup, trying to figure out the rest.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I got yellow and green on Connections, and I knew what blue was, just couldn't get the right combo.

I thought I knew what Blue was but two of them mean nothing to me, so. I never got anywhere green or purple, brain=soup describes it well

Punishingly Intricate

You all have psyched me out on Connections, dammit! I got yellow, have one mistake left and am stuck!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm stumped on Wordle with three greens, and this thread is not giving me hope!

I had a good puzzle morning, though Wordle was surprising. Got a purple first Connections w/ no mistakes, but blue and green took a long time to sort out. Having said that, I've blown both Wordle and Connections TWICE over the last wo weeks. Streak, schmeak.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Totally not a word, Wordle.

Just wound up with two nice bottles of gin left over from our firm gifts. My bar has no gin so I jumped at the chance. I'm not so much a gin person, but when I tasted them during gift-selection I thought they were cool and voted for them so I'm excited to have them.

Obviously I'm not just tossing tonic in 'em. Any suggestions are welcome.

I always like a gimlet. I feel like I am always seeing interesting looking cocktail recipes that call for gin but I can't think of any right now
