    I guess this is the new craze that is melting the internet.

    I've never been good at word-scramble games. I remember trying to do them in our local paper when I was a kid.

    So, I looked at it today.

    Should be simple, right? 5 letters, and guess the word.

    This is why I'll not play.

    What the actual FUCK is this word???

      Get the Wordus app. It's the same game but you can do as many as you want per day.

          Yeah, all those archives, etc are fun, if you want to play the game.

          But "RAMIE?"

          That's a solution?

          I'm not the brightest bulb on the planetary Christmas tree, but FFS, who has "ramie" in their vocabulary?

          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                It’s a type of thread or yarn.

                          I heard the NY Times bought out the original site for like $2 million. Which is a shame, since I'm sure eventually it'll get monetized somehow.

                          Anyway... my wife told me about the Wordle site about 3 weeks ago and I enjoy doing it each morning at 7am. Pretty good stats so far... Just 2 days ago I guessed 4 letters perfectly on the first try and somehow didn't get it until the 4th try. That was disappointing.

                          WRONG

                          WRANG
                          WRUNG <- Correct
