I didn’t see the fifth option on the greens at first. When I whiffed I saw it and, like a dummy, I still went for it again. It’s as if I am too stupid to learn the lesson that you never go after a 5 option choice. Especially with super easy yellows sitting right there!

I totally don't understand what the purples are supposed to

It's bad but I don't care. I finished. I didn't really think the greens were what they were. Would have had that one earlier.

You MUST avoid falling for the trap of something that LOOKS like they should be together. Like “Fishing” and “Bait”. No chance they go together. And if you don’t see ANY synonyms for a word it most likely a _______________ . So fishing would go with Stewart and Lightning and it would by “Rods”. Cool game. Makes you use your brain in a way you rarely have to use it for games.

I've been really good at it for awhile but all the sudden I fell off a cliff.

Once I again I overlooked an obvious 5th option. And I actually went through the word list 3 times before my first guess. Not sure why that happens, it’s like my brain knows a word can have two meanings but I can only process one of the meanings at a time. The no pic says I am the world’s worst multi-tasker, I wonder if that is related?
