Wow Aloy, what is the deal?
You have become a professional
chat exploder.

last time she said she
fell asleep on the keyboard

Must have become a habit then.
This is the 3rd or 4th time it has
happened.

maybe she has narcolepsy now

wow, see no D's so think, I'll start on the bottom row today.
then see no bottom row S's.
is this grid hard?

No bottom row S's?

no, every one I thought I saw was
3rd row S

Oh, you don't see any S words. I thought you meant
you didn't see an S in the bottom row.

yes

going back to the top. or maybe I'll
go to wordle and connections.

well, there's an 8.
starting to look up here.

The bottom row S words are weird

does not surprise me

phantom detest

did you see toby keith died?

Yeah, that's sad. He had cancer, I think

yeah

phantom testate

I can tell this is one of those grids that's
impossible for me because of all the
duplicate tiles.

Makes me crazy too.

hey champ

I think you have to just type words
you think might be here but can't tell

GM!

morning

moooo!

BBL for last 43. Good luck all!

still kinda dark her :)

good morning all. tough grid for me. only have one 8 and two sevens so far

here

peri, I also have 1 8 and 2 7's but haven't actually
made it to all the tiles yet

I was here at the flip and that is when I found them. back again now but seeing nothing

uh oh

finally found 4 bottom s's

still only one D

Okay

be gone now

Thank you Carla. You are so good at inane chatter.

thank you

it's one of her greatest attributes

I just saw king charles has cancer, but just saw a headline so don't know the diagnosis or prognosis.

prostate4

prostate not 4

I wish there were, I dunno...like 5 more t's in this board

I have fl8/55 help with any other 8 please. I have stats for some but not seeing them

Phantom depth

phantom kitten

i only have 4 of the 8's.. they are hard to see

Re King Charles, it said on the news last night that it's not prostate cancer but another type, and they haven't said what it is. They found it while he was undergoing pre-op tests for his prostate operation.

that is the 8 I have

ok hyrdra I did not hear that

thanks for the update, hydra

moo, truly observant take on the t's

kind of a drag for him to get cancer after waiting so long to become king

It's rather worrying that they haven't given out any more details.

I did not hear that either

bbl

well at least he knows he has access to the best care

I agree, ru. I wonder if he'll step back and let William take over?

Gosh, there are so many 8 letter words today!

indeedly

how am I only finding 19/46 s's?

I'm guessing there are big words hiding in that S

been working on that s

found 3 more

I've only got 26 so farm carla

oops, I meant so far

still need 2 for half

12-12-6-10-7-2

well, already had one and just got the plura

I have a kh, yes

ha, I used one of the i's in the chat earlier but hadn't looked at the i yet.

3 kh

2 k's left

ty mool...may I have the second letter?

n for both of them

ty

there's a ph 8 too

how many 8's are just kinda?

oh, tx...didn't have that one

still don't have that one 😜

probably have 2 common, 2 rare, and 2 kind of uncommon

by just kinda I meant -ish

oh, none so far

one for me so far with ish

Do Kings just step back and let the next in line take over?

I think only if he can't perform his kingly duties

not usually, but even before he was king people were speculating he would

was going to say no, but isn't that exactly how queen elizabeth's dad became king (was he george?)

(or george was the abdicator?)

rusty on my history

they just said prince will has already taken over some of the public duties

george was her father

George VI (Elizabeth's father) got the throne when Edward VII abdicated due to a relationship with a divorced woman

ha! got the an6/18 on my own today

so that answers your question. sometimes they do.

do you have to give up the throne for a divorced woman?

you did then

obviously not now

huh.. cuz Camilla is a divorcee

The Edward George thing was in the 1930's

Hi all. Any clues for the Y?

well charles also got a divorce

not before some hanky panky

yw10

anyone get a 9?

nope

I just found a se9

still only have 1 8

finally got HOET

I have the se9

I also have one 8: what artists and actors strive to be.

you seem very smug about it

Do clue the se 9 please. Ty

there's an an8 too

and a fl8

Hi

mael!

sh9 too, a weird one

TO!

hello! :)

wow.. no kidding molly.. thanks for that one.. got both the 9's now

And i am still looking. Ty

Oh, let me guess, Bea will know the sh9 right away.

well how did you find it?

missing two s's .. cannot find them

I only need 19+ 1 + 2 S's

Lucky guess

I'm missing 25, Ru lol

oh, no, nevermind, I forgot about the bottom S. I'm missing 30

moo & hurshy must be working. they'd prob find them right away.

is the SE9 from the top or 3rd row?

it must be the top because I've grayed the 3rd row S

any guesses on my missing one from the 3rd row, mael?

I see it right now, nm. a pt.

70 left. 12-17-12-16-10-2

wow a few yiddish words in this grid

this grid is exhausting

agreed, prob will not make an effort to finish this one

Not my fav kind of grid. Sitting at DMV babbling and missed

My turn

Later

Any clues for the Y word?

yw10

Got the word. Ty.

Still have no 9s. Darn.

My favorite new Yiddish word is fatootsed. It means bewildered or disoriented. Sounds like some people are fatootsed by this grid.

Not real yiddish is it? I dont recall that one ever.

found a second ish word

there are two so far

Guess it is real Molly. Intersting.

I also have two so far, N and L

Interesting.

Any clues for the se or sh 8 welcome.

three ish endings now

Is the sh 9 two words? Is it bui8lt from the sh 5 before it?

I don't make up Yiddish words.

Molly, yes i found it. Just never heard it before. Interesting word, especially where it came from. I would not know it as it was from the NY theatre. My yiddish was from my grandparents and parents. So from poland and ukraine to me.

I also found a third -ish, a P

Ty got it mael.

salutations

hey bea!

just a few big words today

bea!

how's your momma, carla?

she's okay, I guess. thanks for asking.

did I tell you her 104 yo roommate got covid? she died last weekend.

that's sad

my niece was visiting and overheard her son telling her it was okay to die and my niece got all freaked out. I was thinking, he was probably at least 80.

rehi

happy tuesday, mool.

hey BB, happy Tuesday to you too

a little stuck with 25 to go

rehi - researching robot mop vacs. anyone have one? I've had various roombas over the years but not in a while, and looks like there's a lot more options now and more features.

oh, we have a combo vac/mop

it's awesome

roborock is the brand

yeah, am looking at those. as with anything, mixed reviews. also they have a ton of models, some being very expensive.I read their cust serv was lacking, so don't want to spend $1600.

yeah, ours is not cheap, but have been very happy

all the cleaning parts are easy to remove and clear

it cleans its own mop, and empties it's own vac into a station which you then supply

you have cat(s), right? winston creates a lot of fur tumbleweeds.

yep, longish haired cats, a short hair cat and a short haired dog

ok, those are things I want it to do. also want it to only vac on the rugs. and we have 2 rooms with cork floors, so I'm not sure how that would go. I did see one that had 3 levels of water for mopping.

yeah, and it's easy to program zones etc

yeah we have rugs on the wood floors, so it switches back and forth

okay, LMK when you remember what model you have.

yeah, wife bought it so will have to ask her

before that we had a roomba and an irobot (for mop) and ran them as separate units

does yours dry the mopping pads?

I'll have to ask, I'm not certain but it doesn't require any intervention apart from keeping the water stocked, and emptying the stores

that sounds like what I need

now just need that DE8 to gray 1st col

Starts like Lucy's husband

ok, got that part. will keep trying things, thanks

and thanks to bestwordlist. of course the word is obsolete.

but of courseth

1st col gray!

that might deserve a woot

woot! woot!

ooh, two for the price of one

with 67 left I'm not even close on any other rows or columns

have the second column grey

and am one away on the 2nd row and 5th row

I need 3P, 3T, and 2S in the 2nd

need 5H and 1W on 2nd row, 2S and 4F on 5th row.

just 1 W and 1 F

7-2-1-6-4-2

winette - a set of wine glasses you use on the kitchen furniture

yes, and you can put skywine in them

yum

from grapes grown at high altitude

flanette - a very small desert

er dessert

I think that is a flanlet. like nothing bundt cakes has bundtlets.

well, I have just tried everything on F and still need 4

fantastic

oh, there's a superlative I thought I had. so now need 3.

fun

well, you never want to be the f7, unless maybe you are a sumo wrestler

still have 8 s's

probably not

I still have 19 + 2 s's

certainly not if you're marooned in a boat

or stuck in a cage with some hungry predators

similar scenarios

8+0 here

sh__all is a word I've heard some use

and sh__tas are australian for toilet

phantom kitten

probably a black kitten in that case

I don't find orange tabbies very spooky

I still want shite to work

no shite

oh, found my last w...should've had that

do you have the S that starts with 3 cons?

I do

is this the yiddish we were talking about earlier. we being not me.

yes

we were talking yiddish? guess I'll have to brush up on my chutpahs and kvetches

chutzpah

and do you have any 8's or 9's left?

I have to say, yiddish has some of the funnest words

yeah, I have no yiddish and I have 9 8's and 2 9's left

4 and 2 for me, but I shall be averting my eyes

there is an 8/9 combo in the top S

compound

well, I heard the 9s are both s's but have found neither

well I got an 8/9 combo by seeing compound

and it's an odd compound for sure, like just put random words together

lol, meanwhile I don't avert my eyes but my brain blocks out all clues and refuses to show me the words

the SE or the SH?

lower leg + tree cover

its a medicinal plant

sh

thx bzzn

see, like right there my brain is like tree cover?

yes, trees need barns as well

I see tree cover and I think bark

I was thinking cover provided by trees, like shade

But I have the sh9 so I know what was meant

well I think we have trees covered at this point

still no idea

It's what is on the trees that makes the shade

I thought my suggestion about random words was a good option

they come on the tree in the spring

Robins

we have robins year round here

how about batmen?

We have a red robin a couple of miles away, not that I go there

there can be only one batman

ohhh

be have bats but no superheroes

true story, I was also lacking the 2nd word in that word.

I've not seen any bats here yet, but they supposedly exist

couldn't see the trees then hoke

you have to be out at dusk to see the bats

HokieCarlamkg

ah found some other l's

we have them. I hate bats. I have an irrational (?is it though?) fear of bats and rabies. sometimes they swoop down like they're going to attack me.

actually I take that back, I may have seen one last summer, wasn't 100% sure, but about 60% sure

who's to say they're not...

they look like birds flitting around real fast in dusk and dark

and they are typically heavily armed

on account of all that wing webbing

there was one in the driveway one day when I was walking winston and he went towards it and I saw it and yanked him back before he touched it. I thought it was dead, but then it attached to the eave of our foundation and hung there for like 2 days and then disappeared.

was robin with him?

I live in New Mexico and robins are here all year round and our nights are really cold.

5-1-1-4-2-1

mr. bf had sprayed for mosquitos and thought maybe it got poisoned. I checked the mulch to see if it was masquerading as a big chunk of mulch but never saw it.

I'm north of you Mary in CO

no robin with him but we do have a lot.

we have a weird amount of crows here

no joker

now if the penguin shows up...I'll be impressed

canada geese probably close to the most prevalent here

you may not know, but we do get white pelicans in the Summer

i am not the penguin, but close to it ... sort of.....hello all....

oh look at that..it's almost like a summoning

lone Y clue pls?

St. Penquis has ears everywhere... ;oD

yw 4,10 I had to google it.

thx mary

I always thought Penquis was french for Penguins
:D

cute....short for the area between Penobscot and Piscataquis Counties actually....used to live in that area....

i know.. I asked you before. I was just being cute

you are always cute, ru.... :o)

I think canada geese are ubiquitous

oh, and btw

pen!

carla!...

Geese are not allowed in the Bible belt hokie as a FYI

Ru, I think Pen is flirting with you.

oh, they're here

no.. I don't think so..

just trying to be nice, as befits a saint... ;o)

they are.. that must be why you have those Honk if you Love Jesus bumper stickers down there then hokie

Do you have to wear sunglasses all the time from the glow of your halo pen?

pretty much... i have sensitive eyes...

thought so

hey, y'all!

seain!

huh. that LE7 was unexpected

carla! been a while :)

hi dc....

hello, pen!

i took a break to watch the birds at my feeders

how lovely, Be a!

Bea! even :)

hey, dc

wondering what LE7 is here

well you'll have to cashew them outside hokie

connections was fun today

didn't help at all, how nutty

yeah, had no idea on purple, but the other 3 were pretty easy

just monkeyed a 5/7 LE set

i have a de6 and 7 pair, what are the other D words?

de4 and de8

oh duh on the 4!

is the 8 related to any of the others?

no

is it weird?

it's obsolete

it was used in poetry

poetry, eh? hmmmm

you'd think it'd be bard from enable then

starts like lucy's hubs

ok then i was on the right track

found it...ty, bea....never seen that one before...

got it!

you can find it by sonnet gram

yw

hah :)

struggling with P words, as usual

you'd think people would have an ad-verse reaction to this poetry punning

o, we do

yay puns!

maybe we do, ru...

i'm feeling too chagrined about a mistake i made at work to bother about puns

sorry you are feeling bad, hursh....

bummer, brushy. at least you are aware, and I hope were able to correct it.

i'm sorry, hurshy

sorry to be a paean in the ass hursh

no, it's not fixable, sadly

wTF autocorrect, hurshy

bummer :/

phantom pétanque :)

but there's no Q

phantom: skint

no, but the K triggered that for me.

ah

maybe i'm more visual then or something

and you're more auditory

probably. I am a musician.

i am ... not. lol

wow this is a lot of S words too

phantom: KITTEN!!!!!!!

but woohoo, Ks Killed anyway!

nice....still missing four Ks...

Es Eliminated!

need 2 k's

there' s the one set that my autocorrect would always change to when I'd reply "kthx" to people.

and then I would be like, that's a word? but now reading the def....it usually goes with "& kin"

ooh....that gave me four words....ty....

ooh...five....

hmm, I only have 3 relating to that

well, that was my last 2 k's, thanks

yw....still missing one here...

there are 3 kh, so maybe the single

or pt and/or adj where someone is wearing their full gear for something

ah...have two KH 4s....

oh, well one of those has a plural

yes, just found that...ty...

now just need 1 E and 5 A's for that column. LOL

i need one E and nine As in that column....

have run out of ideas on that A

well found one plural A I'd missed

do you have an 6 and a 5 that follows....they both start with the same four letters....

yep, was proud of myself for finding those today

An6/18(first one)…….clue please

you should be!...i just found them because you were talking about the As....still have 72 left here...

aeb...do you have an 5/10?

(not the plurals)....

The second word on the list ….yes

Means in regards to

well there is an an 6 that has the same letters except there is another letter before the last one...

that's the one that we have occasionally where you add a cons toward the end

the 6 means basically the same, looks like it's different british dialect than the 5

Tyvm pen and carla

yw...

so stumped on the sh7.32.. any clues to show the way? ty !

any clues to help find the sh7.32.. has me stumped!

sh 7.32.. ?? am stumped!

LOL, do you have multiple personalities or a lag?

h'mm.. I'll try refreshing bc my posts aren't showing..

I am stumped on most of the s's, still need 16. I do not have that one.

LOL.. I see them now! Sorry, folks.

I heard there was a yiddish word or two, maybe that?

wish I knew yiddish.. I think you must be right

Aloy, why all the long, chat busting posts from you?

starts out with a fem pronoun and ends with sun kissed skin

it's not yiddish but arabic

my posts weren't showing, Molly but appeared when I refreshed.. my Babble clue program isn't working right for some reason, sigh

No, I'm talking about this morning.

well, get both parts of that clue and have tried every possible letter that can go in between the two parts.

aha

Long post with about three hundred s's

?? no idea

nope, not me

will have to go back in chat and look as I don't have a memory of that.. maybe I've been hacked!

glad you mentioned it..

it's about the 3rd time it's happened in a week or so. you said the other day you fell asleep on the keyboard

It's happened several times in the past few days.
This morning it was 6:45

7:45 EST this morning

oh.. that is possible for sure!

I did go back to bed.. I apologize for the ssss's !

you know some of us like to worry

Yeah, people around here are going to think you died at the keyboard.

lol.. probably the way I will go one of these days.. babbling!

Falling asleep at the keyboard can't be good for you.

keeping weird hours.. moving is such a hassle!

I don't know about you Aloy but Carla definitely.

And then Carla will continue posting and "rehi-ing" from the great beyond.

Bea, I tried your clue but I'm doing something wrong for the sh7.32

vowek in the middle of those two words

oh.. it is the last one, got the other

that is the yiddish village

funny, but I remembered the first one from having it before

ah hah.. tyvm

yw

back to packing.. ty all for your help. I'll try reloading Lickety's clues when I have time.. it really helps me though some say they don't use it. Happy Babbling.. I promise to try not to fall asleep at the keyboard again! (-:

good afternoon everyone :)

any stats for the d, please?

de 8/45 4/9 6/21 7/32

ty dipp -- couldn't see that 4/9

clue for the de8?

en7, please

don't have either of those

I got the de8 by monkeying with it...hard to clue. :/

Also don't have the en7.

The de8 kinda-sorta sounds like what that silica gel is that you get with brand new electronics.

de 8: one of the 7 deadlies in the middle of a bash in the fender with an extra vowel

namaste

help with en7 please

en + the thing that incapacitates a bad guy, but isn't a gun. Change the last letter to the plural.

ty cham[ gpt ot

it even

champ even. I am tired

Glad it worked!

i think ne4 (tidy) + ish should count!

The name of this game needs to be changed to "Anything Goes"

lol

any clues out there for the se 8-9?

i didn't know they existed! will look

they come between what the sun does and crap

so they are actually sh, is what you are saying?

sorry - yes -- but there is an se 8-9 as well - don't have either -- just went to the list

oh

ok leg part + tree part

don't see any tree parts that I know of

have a feeling I'm not going to finish this one

like, the parts of the tree that fall off every year

ty hurshy -- guess I've been at this grid for too long

down to 8 that I can't find - mostly 7's

well i have 30 left so i'm not much help

I need help in the last sh 7/32 please.

it is a yiddish word

alt sp

got it, thanks. I was leaving out a vowel

yeah that'd be the more common spelling i believe

hi all and gnpenquis

HOET woot

gatting headache, see y'all anon

too many non- words - not a fun grid

couldn't find sh 7 and sh 5 at the end of the sh list

Well, the sh5 is an alternate spelling of a comedians usual bit

and the sh7 starts with the same 3 consonants

(just finding them now - I've still got 18 words left)

ok - another yiddish word I think?

yes

ty - had to look the 7 up

did you need help with anything?

Probably not - just chugging along

ok - see you at the flip
