    Well, I had absolutely no idea about purple today. Very interesting. I’m not sure how I’d rate it in terms of reasonableness

    because

    popular music is a major blindspot for me. I’ve heard of Limp Biskit (sp?) and Korn, as well as Linkin Park (though I never would have associated Linkin with Lincoln, even though technically yes, I do pronounce them the same out loud…I pronounce them “different” in my head, if that makes sense…). No idea about Stained.

    but leaning towards a 5/5.

    Plus, at least two prominent distractor categories today, which was really interesting.

    Spoilers

    Tree parts: branch, limb, trunk, bow.

    “Things an American might have at a barbeque”: biscuit (the American savoury scone thing…not a chocolate chip biscuit), corn, drumstick (as in chicken), wing (also chicken). I dunno if Americans actually have all those things at barbies, but it felt kinda right to me.

    I got lucky because I found both of those distractors first, and only later figured out the correct connections for yellow, green, and blue.
