I remember the last time there was a lingerie category I missed it because I never heard of a "teddy." This time it's "hose."

I simply suck when there is a "change a letter" category.

Yep, I fell for the "bear" category. There is such a thing as a "din bear," although I had to look it up.

No excuses. Pass the dunce cap.

I have never heard of "polar" being used by itself - always as "polar opposites"

I thought of "drone" before "wrote," but convinced myself that "drone" was likely a previously used word.

I thought "round" was in there somewhere; my first guess (Carousel, Frisbee, Record, Clock) was "things that go round in circles."
That being said, whoever chose the clues for the yellows didn't realize (a) quite a few drink coasters are square, (b) what a "Mickey Mouse pancake" is - it's certainly not round, and (c) Frisbees are not "flat"

Oh...how do you "bend" on a guitar?

I saw the Best Picture ones at first, but there were five, with Rocky.

Fortunately, our friend the "this looks like one of those 'word game' words" (bluest) decided to show up to solve that problem.
