Only one yellow again today.

The yellow "Days of the Week" category does NOT seem to be the most straightforward today, since six of today's words fall into that category.

..."fix" being a word for faking something. I know what it means to fix an event, but I don't think it's in the same category as, say, "forge."

And is there an American version of Fleabag? I thought about including it in the TV shows, but figured that the other four would be more noticeable by what I assume is the target audience.

The yellow category stumped me for a bit, because I had five words for animal homes: the four answers plus WARREN for rabbits.

The BURGER category was a bit of a stretch: I wonder how many players will remember both WARREN and GOOD. Even given the four answers (by process of elimination) I was at a loss as to the connection.

ThatDonGuy,

Perhaps you don't remember the '60's Supreme "Food" Court, where we had a Felix Frankfurter and a Warren Burger ;-)

P.S. Though, sadly, they did not serve at the same time. Ironically, Warren Burger succeeded Earl Warren as Chief Justice.

What is SPAM an acronym for? I thought it was a portmanteau of spiced and ham.

That was a good one with the bra parts, especially with cup also serving as tableware.

Another easy Saturday one.

Note that "spam" is not an acronym - at least, not how Merriam-Webster defines it. Spam stands for "spiced ham," but an acronym is defined as a word made from the beginning letter(s) of words.
Looks like I'm not remotely the first to notice this...
