Horrible today. Blue just impossible.

Complete guesswork on blue and purple.

Blue very much by default - I hadn’t a clue.

Purple made me laugh at myself - I spotted three of them from the start, before getting Yellow. But the one I actually know really really well, I didn’t even notice until I was down to two categories.

I thought purple was something like that but two of them are hardly obvious. Blue was a bit of a despairing try at something that often trips me up, if you haven’t done a million Sporcle quizzes and you’re not American, good luck.

Thank you to google today. (Obviously, blue was by default. Hard to google when you have no idea what you are looking for!)

I thought I knew purple but then got one wrong and guessed right. I'm still not sure what they are. No chance on blue.

Apparently it's a 41% solve rate today...

I wouldn't have had a clue about blue. I got the connection for purple but it was a bit of a guessing game to figure out which were the right words.

I did not enjoy that today.
