1:12 am
justafreep
With 6 Ts in the grid, I wonder... what's the most of any one letter in a grid anyone can remember? 6 seems like a lot, but I wonder if there have been more Es at some point....
1:12 am

not found in the dictionary but it's found on the cheat list
8:09 am
BzznBea
What is the cheat list?
8:09 am
funhs
the list of words found on the clue page
8:11 am
hokie carla
top row gray. bam!
8:11 am
MollyL
Somebody needs to tell Lickety his list is now the "cheat list" 😊
8:12 am
BzznBea
I just don't inderstand that entire statement.
8:15 am
MollyL
My take is that it's on Lickety's list, but there is no definition when you click on the ? next to the word.
8:16 am
funhs
On the clue page there are links to 4 letter, 5 letter etc word lists. There are words there that don't work in the grid. That's all I'm saying and it seems odd.
8:17 am
rbud
you mean like the A to Z lists?
8:17 am
rbud
you mean like the A to Z lists?
8:19 am
aslindy
Think of those lists as dictionaries of just words of that length. Not lists of words in the game.
8:20 am
rbud
I figure A to Z lists are likely newer (or more frequently updated) than Enable, which is what this game uses, and not even the newest version of Enable at that.
8:22 am
funhs
Thanks for the explaination
8:50 am
hokie carla
well, was moving right along at graying tiles on 1st pass which never happens for me, but then I got to the first R.

that's punny. I can't even come up with one.
9:22 am

you'd have to get to altared states to start punning this early
9:24 am

ruru is enshrined as the best punster in my bible!

9:33 am
MollyL
Ru, your clue has been officially dissed.
9:33 am

hah.. we'll take that as the gospel shirl
9:33 am
MollyL
Personally, I thought it was clever.
9:34 am
rururocks
you can't please them all molly.. i learned that a long time ago
9:37 am
MollyL
Yes, that's true. And clever clues are no longer the favorites. People like them really easy these days.
9:38 am
rururocks
not always.. but sometime yeah
9:39 am
Shirlockc
i got the 9/10 from your clue, ruru, as it started the punfest, i thought it was great :)
9:40 am

well Molly, you'll be glad to know that OJ Simpson thinks that Will Smith "went a little too far".
10:22 am
MollyL
OJ really didn't need to weigh in on that.
10:24 am
hokie carla
my first thought when it happened was what would a double murder (unconvicted, I know) think
10:24 am
rururocks
madonna's boyfriend is 27 years old. I'm not afraid of him
10:25 am
MollyL
I would say so is Jada's but I'm afraid I'd get slapped.
10:25 am
hokie carla
I heard it was one of Jaden's friends, is he that old now?
10:27 am
rururocks
I'm amazed OJ had time to put out a statement since he's consistently hard at work finding Nicole's killer
10:27 am
MollyL
Jaden is 23 and he still has whacked out hair
10:28 am
MollyL
And please. Having a sexual relationship with one of your kid's friends is just ICK.
10:28 am
rururocks
madonna is just icky
10:29 am
MollyL
Jada is the one who had a sexual relationship with her kid's friend.
10:29 am
MollyL
Maybe it's something about names that end in A.
10:30 am
hokie carla
yeah, my 21 year old told me about Jaden's friend and I was thinking, that is just super icky.
10:30 am
rururocks
oh I didn't know that that is really creepy
10:31 am
rururocks
that mother must be pulling her hair out
10:31 am
hokie carla
I just typed in an 8 because all the letters are here but I couldn't see it, and it took!
10:31 am
hokie carla
oh geez, ruru bout to get bitch-slapped
10:32 am

open marriages are weird.. sorry

10:46 am

Oh who knows with those two. They claim they never said they have an open marriage.

I'm kind of amazed the academy or security didn't escort him out of the theater
10:48 am
MollyL
They should have.
10:49 am

I am kind of amazed with the huge push for "inclusion" at the awards, someone who was "included" would act like that on a night they were nominated.

Interesting fact: While the slap was happening, Congress stopping funding of free meals for students to the tune of 11 Billion $$$$$
10:50 am
rururocks
well.. the oscars are somewhat racist to begin with.. but yes I agree he really must have issues
10:51 am
MollyL
But Ru, he's a "vessel of love".
10:52 am
rururocks
not sure Chris Rock would agree with that
10:53 am
MollyL
I don't know how people in the audience weren't laughing when he did that vessel of love thing in his acceptance speech.
10:53 am
hokie carla
chris rock should have walked up and slapped him after he said that
10:54 am
MollyL
Tickets to Chris Rocks upcoming tour are selling like hotcakes.
10:55 am
hokie carla
godthaab, my mom was telling me how kids in her area (the appalachians) were not getting school lunches this summer, so I'm guessing it's related to that. what a shame.
10:56 am
MollyL
They have to make up for all that money they gave away during COVID, so hey, let's starve the kids. Brilliant.
10:57 am
hokie carla
it's sad that sometimes that's the only food a kid gets in a day
10:58 am
rururocks
that's true hokes
10:59 am
mael
it's obscene that we can't just feed kids who need to be fed
10:59 am
mael
it's so much cheaper to feed hungry kids than it is to deal with the societal consequences of hungry kids
11:00 am
MollyL
Hopefully, communities that are affected by this will respond with some kind of self-funded programs.
11:02 am
mael
self funded how?
11:02 am
mael
this is the funding
11:02 am
MollyL
Ask for donations to supply kids with lunch money. Community funded instead of government funded.
11:03 am
mael
The communities that are most affected are not ones that can afford to ask for donations from... members of the community
11:03 am
mael
charity doesn't work, government programs do
11:05 am
MollyL
So then people from outside the area. There is plenty of individual money out there. Otherwise people wouldn't be able to afford the mortgages on their $300,000 homes, the $50 bucks a month they spend at Starbucks and the hundreds they put in their gas tanks every month.
11:05 am
mael
it would just make fiscal sense too: it's not like the government doesn't then shoulder the costs of underfed kids, whether directly or indirectly. Worse educational outcomes, worse health outcomes, worse job prospects, increased crime rates, depreciated assets, and so on and so on. But it's much easier to pretend you're saving money than acknowledging that by not spending a little now you're spending a LOT more later
11:05 am
mael
sure, but that's why we have TAXES. Take from those that have and give to those that have not
11:06 am
mael
through the government, not charity.
11:06 am
MollyL
No we actually have taxes for a lot of other reasons.
11:06 am
rururocks
<-- would love to have $300,000 homes here in California
11:07 am
mael
taxes shouldn't fund social programs?
11:07 am
mael
since when?
11:07 am
MollyL
I didn't say that. I said that is not the main purpose of taxes.
11:08 am
hokie carla
yeah, like in the appalachians, there might be one or two rich people but mostly communities can't help, that's why they need help
11:08 am
mael
but how does that negate the fact that we should use taxes to fund social programs? just because we use them for other things too
11:09 am
MollyL
It doesn't and I never said it should.
11:10 am
mael
okay, so why disagree with using taxes to fund social programs?
11:10 am
mael
unless you think I meant that that's the ONLY reason we have taxes?
11:11 am
MollyL
For those who are interested, All For Lunch is a national organization that helps kids who need it get school lunches. You can donate on line.

Mael, it is a crime that a rich country like the U.S. has a population that relies on schools to feed kids.
11:40 am
cybernan
just been through the chat -- don't really understand what everyone is so upset about: Man insults another's wife, husband slaps man. Done and justified.
11:42 am
rbud
yeah, I kinda felt the same, nan, but boy, did the masses (many without the "m") give me heck on FB about it.
11:45 am
rbud
"bad role model", "she can stick up for herself", "violence is never the answer", and the ever-present bits about it being sexist and/or politically incorrect.
11:45 am
MollyL
So you two are condoning physical violence? Just curious.
11:45 am
rbud
there's another one! imagine that.
11:46 am
MollyL
Okay, question answered.
11:47 am
cybernan
the host was not funny molly - he was way out of line and got what he deserved. And as far as punches went, it was obviously held back and meant to make a point rather than cause serious injury
11:48 am
cybernan
are you saying people should be allowed to go around insulting others and saying whatever they want without consequences?
11:49 am
rbud
I figure, sure, it's bad to get violent, but there are times when it's just not the worst thing in the world. And be real, there are plenty of women who appreciate when their man sticks up for them, even knowing it's not the "correct" thing to do. I'll be interested to see if she has anything to say about it, because really, her opinion matters the most.
11:50 am
rbud
and it was a slap, not a punch. I figure alcohol was involved, and it sure could have been worse. Not "condoning", just understanding.
11:50 am
MollyL
No Nan. But I will never say that if someone gets insulted it is okay for them, or someone who cares about them to slap the insulter in the face. That is not how I raised my kids anyway.
11:51 am
MollyL
No not condoning but it sure sounds like "making excuses for".

There were plenty of other ways Smith could have defended his wife. We live in a world of people sounding off on social media and in the press.
11:53 am
rbud
Call it what you want, you like confrontation, and verbal slapping (which Rock did) can be just as bad, sometimes worse.
11:53 am
cybernan
there is a difference between insulting someone and ridiculing someone in public, which is what he did. I still say he deserved what he got -- and if that is what is style of comedy is, I am surprised it hasn't happened sooer.
11:53 am
cybernan
agreed, rbud -- certainly more hurtful than a slap
11:53 am
rururocks
I don't think the police would look at it that way if Chris Rock decided to press charges...
11:54 am
cybernan
charges for what? a slap? lets get real -- the police can shoot someone on a whim and think they should get off
11:55 am
rbud
I bet most of the people fussing about the "violence" of it all don't mind football a bit, but hey, what do I know?
11:55 am
rururocks
that qualifies as an assault nan.. not sure how that plays out in Canada, but here it is a crime
11:56 am
cybernan
so if you defend yourself in the US it is a crime?
11:56 am
rbud
I also have several FB folks who still believe it was all a put-on to raise Oscar ratings, and I consider that a definite possibility, too, I have to admit. They ARE actors, after all.
11:57 am
rururocks
i really doubt that RB.. not too likely
11:57 am
KnightTime
Smith did not defend his wife- He laughed at Rock's joke, then saw his wife was upset and tried to save face.
11:58 am
rbud
Let's just see, like I said, if his wife says anything, and whether they take his award away. That will tell a lot.
11:58 am
rururocks
he wasn't defending himself nan and it wasn't an appropriate joke, but it was just a joke. We can't start all climb up on stages and start assaulting comedians
11:59 am
cybernan
I don't know much about the legalities of it all, but do think verbal assault should be dealt with in the same manner as physical assault.
11:59 am
cybernan
It wasn't just a joke to her, Ru -- that is the whole point.
12:00 pm
cybernan
Anyway -- what was a molehill is now a mountain. I wilsh people would get as upset about what Putin is doing to Ukraine.
12:00 pm
rururocks
I don't know if Chris Rock knew she had a medical issue with her head.. but part of the price of celebrity is that people can take you to task
12:00 pm

No way - verbal assault is subjective which leads to elimination of free speech

assault is assault, KT --- free speech does not inclue defamation of character or assault -- free speech is the freedom to express an opinion on something.
12:01 pm
rururocks
I don't agree with that godthaab
12:01 pm
rbud
I think they ought to line up the Academy Award board and smack them all, haha, for what they've let its level sink to. No dignity, nothing special, just a joke-filled roast.
12:02 pm

agreed, godthaab
12:03 pm

defamation of character is covered under free speech in america if you are public figure

rururocks
it's a lot more entertaining than clue after clue after clue

We've been to 2 movies in the las year. It was "Belfast" Thought it great with a super ast. Ignored at the Oscars
12:12 pm
hurshy
what kind of movie was it? historical about the IRA and things, or...?
12:13 pm
MollyL
For those condoning what Smith did, I can only suggest that if someone walked up to you and slapped you in the face for something you said that they perceived as offensive, you would be singing a different song.
12:13 pm
bichon
Life in Belfast with sectarian violence. Family decide to move to Britain.
12:14 pm
aslindy
I tried to talk about meeting a new pup on Friday, but got no reply. Which is ok if no one wants to talk about pups!
12:14 pm
hurshy
did they move to britain at the end or beginning?
12:14 pm
bichon
Please! aslindy
12:14 pm
hurshy
oh lindy, were you meeting it to possibly adopt?
12:14 pm
aslindy

hurshy

12:16 pm
aslindy

12:17 pm
aslindy
from a hoarding situation. they spent their first 14 weeks shut in a bedroom and never went outside. :(
12:18 pm
hurshy
aw, well, at least they were rescued after not TOO long
12:19 pm
aslindy

I was going to share her Petfinder pic, but they've already taken her off there!
12:22 pm
MollyL
Don't worry Lindy. People can talk about dogs or cats here all day long.
12:25 pm
Sophie512
Lindy, so happy for you, my girl is a rescue, too, it has taken her a long time.... I've had her 2 of her 4 1/2 years.....to come out of her shell, but she's a happy girl now
12:28 pm
aslindy
we've adopted a lot of dogs & cats over the years. plus when I was much younger I adopted a mustang through the government program, so I am used to training all kinds of animals.
12:30 pm
cybernan
I would dearly love to have a cat again, but at my age it isn't fair to adopt a kitten and older cats that aren't disease ridden and used to being an indoor cat are hard to come by
12:33 pm
aslindy
I follow several nearby pet rescues and see lots of cats and kittens available all the time. Don't give up looking if that's what you want!
12:33 pm
rururocks
I just adopted another Labrador.. so I hope I outlive them
12:34 pm
aslindy
time for me to do some shopping. remember to have fun!
12:34 pm
Sophie512
oh, ru, looooove labs Shadow was our last one, then mine after my husband passed. Such a good boy.
12:38 pm
MollyL
I agree with Ru. I enjoy conversations about current events where people have different points of view. That is what life is about. We don't need to treat this place with kid gloves. Most of our conversations about hot topics remain civil.
12:45 pm
mab
congratulations ru on your blessed event - are labs the long-haired ones, or short? get my blond dogs mixed up.
12:46 pm
moolingwa
oh cool, bigger board

hey pen, happy whatever day it is
12:47 pm
penquis
ditto...
12:51 pm
mab
oh i see - retrievers have the long hair. both breeds seem like good-tempered, loyal guys. and labs are good seeing eye dogs, yes? this exhausts my knowledge of big blond dogs.
12:51 pm
Uneaixoise
Most labs are black or chocolate brown
12:52 pm
moolingwa
and they commonly are filled with bunsen burners and test tubes
12:52 pm
mattygroves
Haaaa! You've heard the joke about the lab tests and the cat scan (and the dead duck)
12:53 pm
Sophie512
yes, but go on
12:53 pm
mab
oh, good to know Une. had no idea. anyway, handsome breed.

Molly, I don't mind disagreement either. It wasn't the fact of the disagreeing, it was the bothering about celebrities. But I wasn't saying people had to stop, either - just wanted people to check in with themselves and make sure they DID want to talk about that.
1:08 pm
hurshy
i did admit that i found it a boring topic, especially since we were now on our second day of it, but people don't have to stop just cause it bores me personally.
1:12 pm
hokie carla

hokie carla
I actually always have to have music, podcast, tv, etc. playing and mr. homie attributes it to my latchkey kid upbringing.

1:16 pm
mkg

EllJay

1:38 pm
Sophie512

1:42 pm
hokie carla

1:42 pm

Kaplan the Magne
I forgot the other one I used to play- with the 3 minute grids. WOrdsplay?

mattygroves
I like Wordle. That fact it's once a day makes it a quick yet thoughtful diversion, particularly when I'm working
1:46 pm
penquis
yes, WordSplay is still there....
1:46 pm
Kaplan the Magne
And words with friends is useful as a time suck
1:47 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Let me try a few wordplay. It's crck compared to this, which is a slow drug.
1:47 pm
hurshy
exactly, wordle is fine as a quick diversion, but nowhere near as awesome as babble

2:22 pm
moolingwa
3 A's on that one, 2 on the other
2:23 pm
hokie carla

2:23 pm
moolingwa
2 on that one...2 on the other

2 on that one...1 on the other

2:30 pm
hokie carla
that was my last one, a 6
2:31 pm
hokie carla

hokie carla
get rekt
2:36 pm

top two rows gray! of course my last R was a 4 that I entered this morning.

hokie carla
what are my missing 2 8's?
2:47 pm
hokie carla

2:47 pm
moolingwa
I'm guessing one at least is an S
2:47 pm
moolingwa
if you want a clue, let me know...will help with your S anyway
2:47 pm
hokie carla
good statistical guess, and correct. sure, I'll take a clue.
2:48 pm
moolingwa
there is a 7/8 and a similar 7 that are all musical terms, so think italian
2:49 pm
moolingwa
my other guess is an a8 which is related to a 6
2:49 pm
moolingwa
found my final 5
2:49 pm
hokie carla
have been trying stuff with that double T but nothing so far. will try some other things.
2:50 pm
hokie carla
I have ar8
2:50 pm
moolingwa
think italian
2:50 pm
moolingwa
which should help at one end..
2:50 pm
moolingwa
you have su8 right?
2:50 pm
hokie carla
the 5s must be easy or mostly pl because it's very unusual for me to finish them first
2:50 pm
moolingwa
oh nevermind, doesn't exist
2:51 pm
moolingwa
oh, more s8 help coming
2:51 pm
moolingwa

I don't want to be short about it une, but...maybe that's a clue
2:58 pm
moolingwa
it literally means to wear down, normally seen with a -tion ending
2:58 pm
hokie carla
I don't have that yet. must be my last 2 a's on that side
3:00 pm
hokie carla

3:04 pm
moolingwa

moolingwa
found my last v
3:52 pm
moolingwa
3 to go
3:54 pm
hokie carla
still 8
3:55 pm
hokie carla
found the R - a 4!
3:56 pm
hokie carla
well, my right A was a 4 that I also already entered today
3:57 pm
moolingwa
annoying
3:57 pm
hokie carla
agree
3:57 pm
moolingwa
absolutely
3:57 pm
hokie carla
still one A on the left though. and the s's and v's
3:58 pm
moolingwa
yeah, I can posit the v's if you like
3:58 pm
moolingwa
how many do you have?
3:58 pm
hokie carla
that'd be v.v. great
3:58 pm
hokie carla
2 left
3:58 pm
moolingwa
do you still have a 4 left?
3:59 pm
moolingwa
and the other might be either the 6 which is latin, and means trust, or a 7 that might leave you green with envy, knowing that I got it first
3:59 pm
moolingwa
my last 4 is a weird v4
3:59 pm
hokie carla
I do not have any v7, will work with that clue
3:59 pm
moolingwa
or rather was
3:59 pm
hokie carla
I have 9 v4
4:00 pm
moolingwa
remember, my cles are more cryptic than not
4:00 pm
hokie carla
yes, I know
4:00 pm
moolingwa
yes, then I think it might be the one that is worth more than the others
4:00 pm
hokie carla
what is the 7 stat?
4:01 pm
moolingwa
commonish word
4:01 pm
hokie carla
I have a veird va4/8
4:01 pm
moolingwa
then you're missing a different v4...perhaps the second to last one
4:02 pm
hokie carla
I think I have that too
4:02 pm
hokie carla
will retype every v4 possiblility
4:02 pm
moolingwa
then pehaps the second one, the one before the 7
4:03 pm
hokie carla
ok, got the 7!
4:04 pm
moolingwa
I knew if I planted a clue, you'd figure it out
4:04 pm
hokie carla
I have the pink floyd song before the 7
4:04 pm
moolingwa
then it's an easy one
4:05 pm
moolingwa
o/` does anyone here remember... o/`
o/` do you remember how she said...we would meet again...some sunny day o/`
4:06 pm
hokie carla
what has become of you
4:06 pm
moolingwa
yeah, who knows....I used to be quite normal
4:07 pm
hokie carla
are you pretending you didn't notice I continued the lyrics?
4:07 pm
moolingwa
Oh, I knew you continued them
4:08 pm
hokie carla
ah, it was the presidential word. not sure how I missed that all day.
4:09 pm
moolingwa
think these last three are too much work
4:10 pm
moolingwa
guessing a6 and s6 and s7...but could be a7
4:10 pm
hokie carla
yep, I know you don't list but I'm about to so I can walk Winston before it's bedtime.
4:10 pm
moolingwa
sounds like a good strategy
4:10 pm
hokie carla
I have 2 6 and 2 7 left. the left A and 3 upper S
4:11 pm
moolingwa
maybe missing an s7 plural?
4:11 pm
moolingwa
before you list
4:11 pm
hokie carla
I haven't seen people asking for clues for any weird a's or s's so feels like they might be normal. but what are the odds of us both needing them if so?
4:11 pm
hokie carla
will check my plurals.
4:13 pm
moolingwa
you got all 4 related s7s?
4:14 pm
moolingwa
coz they're the only 7s off the middle row s
4:14 pm
moolingwa
h no, I missed this one
4:14 pm
moolingwa
there's a 5/7 combo
4:14 pm
Sophie512
Back for last 20, all T and R from 4th column
4:15 pm
hokie carla

4:15 pm
hokie carla
ah, got the s7, thx moo
4:15 pm
moolingwa
hey soph
4:16 pm
hokie carla
ok, the A is neither a word I know nor a word with a definition, so good luck, moo
4:16 pm
moolingwa
it's a 6?
4:19 pm
hokie carla
well so far the list not helping with the last 2 S
4:21 pm
moolingwa
what's the second letter on the a?
4:21 pm
Sophie512
I'm down to 11 all T will be happy to clue an S
4:21 pm
Sophie512
I'll try very hard not to type the whole %$%$##@ word
4:22 pm
hokie carla
thanks, sophie. surely I can figure them out with the points and the list position.
4:22 pm
moolingwa
oh duh, alternate spelling of the bird
4:22 pm
hokie carla
usually has a c?
4:22 pm
moolingwa
for normal people, it's spelled with a c
4:23 pm
hokie carla
I've seen that spelling here but didn't know it was a bird
4:24 pm
moolingwa
yeah, believe so
4:24 pm
moolingwa
I mean..it's the way you say it, if not how you spell it
4:24 pm
moolingwa
they're cool birds, their bills curve upwards at the end
4:25 pm
hokie carla
interesting
4:27 pm
hokie carla

4:55 pm

It could have been much worse of a break. I'm thankful for the no surgery words. Also, I have osteoporosis, so guess it's slower to heal.
