Based on this thread, I decided to download Wordle and play it.
I can't make this up: I solved it in 2 words. My first time ever.
I started with TRIES because it had two vowels and common letters.
T and R were green, and S was yellow! Very lucky.
the S clearly needed to be the 4th letter, so all I could think of was:
TRASH.
And that was the solution.

So many better men, a few of them friends, are dead. And a thousand thousand slimy things live on, and so do I.

Wordle is not an app, it's a website. If you're playing an app, you're playing a knockoff and will be playing a different word than the rest of us.
Casinos are not your friends, they want your money. But so does Disneyland.
And there is no chance in hell that you will go to Disneyland and come back with more money than you went with.

Everyone who plays on the NYT website should get the same word, although there have been reports of some people inexplicably getting a different word from others. Probably as a result of the original powerlanguage website now redirecting to the NYT website.

Haven’t played it yet but I read that trace is the best word to start with and crate is just slightly behind as 2nd best.

I love the game nerdle. It's basically wordle, but a math equation.
I have a streak of 10 days in a row getting it in 3 or less.

In answer to the poll question of when did "The Ukraine" become "Ukraine," it's 1991.

Here is a link to Nerdle. I just tried for the first time and surprisingly got it in two turns.
