I would have had a perfect, but I clicked on Comb instead of Bank for the purples
Also, I thought that saw, comb, and zipper were musical instruments; I added comb because I figured out geez, rats, and nuts, and figured the sundae fit in somehow

Challenge: there was no way of knowing that the sundae topping was fudge

I had flail, flop, and flounder, but figured they meant "wriggle" (I almost added flip at first, but figured "flip" and "flop" together was a trick); I don't think I have seen flail used as a synonym for fail (my two misses used mar instead).

I never would have gotten the purples on their own, although I know who the four of them are - pop culture, especially singers, is a weak spot of mine.

No idea what a "yodel" is - I had snowball, hoho, and ding dong, and wasn't sure about devil dog; when it said "one away," I assumed that devil dog was the odd one out

I then saw food, pillow, and snowball for fights, but tried bar, then chicken.

"Bar joke"?
