The dumbest thing I've ever bought
was a 2020 planner.
"Does anyone ever think about Denethor, the guy driven to madness by staying up late into the night alone in the dark staring at a flickering device he believed revealed unvarnished truth about the outside word, but which in fact showed mostly manipulated media created by a hostile power committed to portraying nothing but bad news framed in the worst possible way in order to sap hope, courage, and the will to go on? Seems like he's someone we should think about." - Dave_LF

Glad I'm not the only one who had trouble with the second letter of the third word.

I didn't like hurdle at first.. but it's a regular part of my game routine now, even though sometimes it's frustrating.

If there was anything that depressed him more than his own cynicism, it was that quite often it still wasn't as cynical as real life.

My first try at Hurdle:
Hurdle 128

4/6
4/6
3/6
5/6
Final 1/2
I'm still enjoying Canuckle, which turns out to not be Canadian English, but simply a version of Wordle in which there is a bit of Canadian trivia offered about the solution word each day.

Re: Games, Riddles, Puzzles, and other Distractions
I thought it was a tough word. I also find it frustrating when I 'waste' a word or use a word to narrow the options down and accidentally use a letter that's already been discounted.
