One of those categories was a bit meta!

I knew the purple connection straight away but the fourth word for it had me stumped. Major "d'oh" moment when I worked it out 😂

I either fail horribly , one row yesterday, or it’s perfect. Connections

I knew the category but one of the purples took a while for me to see

One of the purple words is a bit mean I thought. I ended up a bit all over the place with blue and purple for a bit.

I don’t see the problem with purple. Blue is ridiculous.

Another fail. Even with the answers I don't understand that.

Nope, that one can fuck off. I made two good groups that didn't exist, blue can do one cos only a select group of ppl can know that one & that word in purple is just. Well. No.

Took me waaaaaay too long to figure out that one of the words does actually fit 😩

ArcaneWireless · 28/05/2024 13:00

Oh you sleekit buggers.

THAT purple word has just made sense.

In the words of @JaneJeffer they can do one. (Daytime polite version)

Abitorangelooking · 28/05/2024 13:43

I liked the blue but I play the game 😉

I think the blues, or very similar words could have applied to other things so I'll give them that. I did get the purple link but not how the fourth word fits in .

ShinyAppleDreamingOfTheSea · 28/05/2024 18:45

OK so I've googled and it kind of fits in two ways.
