Should have been a three but I wanted to see if what I actually guessed was accepted.

I was so close to having two 2-guess solves in a row.

(also, I'm sooo close to telling Connections to f*ck right off. Some really awful puzzles in the last few days.)

Godamnit.

Yeah, I've not really been enjoying Connections. I keep doing it just out of habit though.

I'm not sure how I feel about the new game, Strands. Most of the time it's a bit too easy but a couple of them have had such an obtuse name that I couldn't find words to fit the them without a hint for the first one.

The worst category ever was: Hockey, Skeleton, Trampoline, Breaking

Spoiler:

Olympic sports

I screamed "What!?!" and turned to google to see how 3 of those met the category. Meanwhile the word

Spoiler:

volleyball

was used in a different category.

I tried Strands twice so far. The first was Guacamole ingredients and I kept having to google to spell the words correctly (I'm a terrible speller without spellcheck). The second the main clue was so vague I had no idea what words to try to look for and gave up (I tried that one on break during a very busy day a work, so I might not have been in the best headspace).

That was the first category I got that day. But I'm a dork.

I did have to brute force it a bit. At first, I thought it would be hockey, trampoline, breaking, volleyball because those are all summer Olympic sports (hockey means field hockey, real hockey is called ice hockey for the Olympics) and skeleton is a winter sport. I replace trampoline first before volleyball.

But, yeah, if you aren't a dork, that's an annoying one.

Is there a non-proper-noun usage of Sally that I'm not aware of? Because proper nouns as Wordle solves can hit the bricks as far as I'm concerned.

Spoiler:

Are you aware of the newspaper comic Sally Forth? The name is a pun based on the non-proper noun definition.

I wasn't! At least I learned something new today.
