Wordle Wednesday #22

 7.9.25 - Did you read the novel about the loner who had to walk the plank?

(I did, but I was bored.)

7.10.25 - Reading the news makes every hippy jumpy.

(join the club!!)

7.11.25 - Be sure to use the super brand of brown bag when you bring your food to work.

(Originally, I felt this was a kinda meh sentence, and it IS, but the idea of a brand of generic brown bag does amuse me somewhat...)

7.12.25 - Sadly, we are going to have to exile any child who displays any sort of quilt making skill.

(Ripped from headlines from two months into the future... )

7.13.25 - Knowing what was at stake, the network had to bleep everything the weird gnome said about the 75 ounce big gulp cup during the interview.

(Absolutely the best sentence this week. The idea of a cabal of network executives needing to cover up the existence of a slightly bigger Big Gulp cup that is being exposed by a GNOME is exactly the type of vibe I wish ALL my Wordle sentences had.)

7.14.25 - The nadir of the Rocky franchise - that undid decades of goodwill -  was when they showed him fighting a swine, wearing a light jacket.

(Not sure what it says about me that there's a part of me that DOES want to watch Sylvester Stallone punch a pig.)

7.15.25 - The DJ decided to foist his horrible music onto the audience, despite the glare he got from his promoter and the shift in mood when he switched from classic rock to Siberian cat yodeling.

(I haven't googled if Siberian cat yodeling is a real thing or not, because I feel like I'm better off not knowing one way or the other.)

Wordle Wednesday #21

 7.2.25 - You do NOT want to incur the ire of the juice gods.

(Yeah, "wrath" would be the more optional word there, but I didn't USE "wrath" in my wordle puzzle that day, so deal with it. Also, I like the idea of irate gods of juice. Or, just gods of juice in general, but particularly, the idea of angry ones.)

7.3.25 - “Golly,” the pale, downy moose said, “the poppy seed muffins touch my soul!” 

(Talking moose almost always improves things. Especially if they say non sequiturs about  pastries.)

7.4.25 - The octopus can easily nudge these marbles around the curve.

(Octopuses are smart, yo.)

7.5.25 - I can’t make it any barer - based on what we’ve discovered, the baker was eaten by the baler.

(Freaking hay balers are frightening machines. The baker ...may have gotten what they deserved.)

7.6.25 - When hiking on a trail, I spilled water on my anatomy textbook, smudging the section on the atria, and thus throwing off my ratio of studying to relaxing I had for the weekend.

(First - fuck you, Wordle. "Atria"? Really?? Second - ha! Managed to sentence it up anyway.)

7.7.25 - I am still haunted by the sound of the shark balancing on the single steel stilt as it advanced onto the land. 

(Sharks with legs? Scary. Sharks with artificial legs like stilts? Scarier. Sharks using JUST ONE stilt, in order to get onto land, and thus increase the area they can attack? Scariest.)

7.8.25 - I dread having to deal with the freak who will choose to renew the grape flavor treat.

(Yeah. Grape is for five year old kids who don't know any better. Just end it, and have the kids adapt to having better flavors.)

Wordle Wednesday #20

 6.25.25 - The perfect decor is black and comfy.

6.26.25 - Here is a bonus tip - avoid someone who has an offer to correct an error with a flamethrower.

6.27.25 - Daily, after acting completely insane, Charlie acted like a plain, ordinary pigeon.

(Oh, that Charlie!)

6.28.25 - Whenever I visit the stump, I stuff my beard with cloth that stung me.

(As one does.)

6.29.25 - The topic of fifty, witty kitty cats will never not make my eyes misty.

(Might be allergies, though. Also, "fifty, witty kitty" is a nice turn of phrase.)

6.30.25 - If you are chill, and don’t blink when they temporarily blind you, they will sling a prize your way.

(...But how will you know?)

7.1.25 - The once hairy puppy soon turned moldy; such is the folly of life.
