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
Wordle I get very worked up about. I got to 138 once.
Wait, what does that mean?
My win streak was 138 before I blew it.

It was, Tep! I also had the pre-coffee weird choice, I guess (Eta high-five to brenda as well)
I don't think my brain works right for Letterboxed. I've only tried it a couple of times but it does not seem at all fun, just hard.
Pretty nails,, PMM!

My Mom got the Wordle in 2 today! I got it I. 4 but only after really staring at the 3 yellow letters I had at 2 for like 20 minutes. My longest streak was 263 so I can imagine how I felt when I broke that. V sad.
