pretty disappointed Enable is not up with the latest dance moves...
The British naughty word is also not in Enable

I am clearly about 12 years old - I'm amused by the fact pr5 /22 and the British naughty word are both in the grid
lol... this is how we have become in this new covid world...
I have 24 left but nothing bigger than a 6. Hmmmm
do I know the British naughty word?
Probably? It would be wa4 if enable recognised it

'morning, everyone
hi welki
hi
I thought I'd found a new Khardashian, but alas: "khroey" was not found in the dictionary
and they can't twerk. predates enable, i gues.
I think twerking is reserved for celebrities with, errr, slimmer anteriors
Gotta get ready for class. 18 to go - 5/6 done!
bye
slm anteriors make for boring twerks - shelf butts are the best, not that i'm an expert *lol*
or posteriors
re
may i have a clue fr the he 7 mentioned in just a few minutes ago.
I think we need Ru's expertise on posteriors.
that's just a race to the bottom, Judi
Let's not get too bummed out over it, Dan.
sounds like the titled person in a herman's hermits song
At the same time, we don't want to make asses of ourselves.
Does anyone have a clue for the Ep7?
ep7 is an era
Just found it. Thanks, Welki.
uhm, no it's not, but it sounds like it should be one
i'm pretty good at making up what i think should be definitions :)
what is that a clue for welk the hermans hermit?
and i am not getting this ep 7 word either
ep7 - long poem + compass direction acronym
I need a more modern clue for the he7 please :-)
thanks dan

nd your chuckle for the day--- more truisms...
you're clue blurting now, knight :D
Interpretation of Trumpspeak: “Did you know?†(I just found this out) “People are saying†(I'm making this up) “We'll see what happens†(I've no idea what's happening) “Believe me†(I'm lying)
yep
so true...
When liberals demean the president - "That's funny" When conservatives point out Biden's mistakes - "That's Russian disinformation"
Just saw Trump describe Nigel Farage as one of the most important men in Europe. WHAT????? The laughing stock more like
I'm curious Knight, what specifically are you referring to as "Joe Biden's mistakes" that are being classified as "Russian disinformation"
I'm also curious about your choice of words...."liberals demeaning the president" versus "conservatives point out Biden's mistakes"
Those don't really sounds like comparatives...
If you watched the second debate - that was when Biden made the statement "Russian disinformation"
About what specific accusation?
did you watch the debate?
I watched
No
But I am curious as to whether it was the line "Russian disinformation" that you have issue with, or whether there was a specific charge that you are concerned about
I watched
fireworks!
i am not really interested in debating anything political in this forum. Cybernan makes a "joke" and I responded in kind. That's all - have a nice day. Good luck with Babble.
You did frame it as "Biden's mistakes" so I assume there's something specific that you are concerned about
Wonder if "Russian disinformation" is equivalent to "Fake news"
If you read Knights profile that will tell you all you need to know. When pinned down to specifics, just avoid and disappear.
Yes, I'm aware, have seen him before
its called dish it out but cant take it
Cybernan - you forgot "I read or someone told me" - translation I can say what I what and 'someone' is responsible.
I thought Russian disinformation was the rumours circulating about Bidaen that every USA Intellligence Agency has investigated and found no evidence, proving to most people that they are just that - false rumours
Well I assumed he was talking about Hunter Biden's relationship with Burisma and/or the laptop, or perhaps he's referring the allegation about business in China
As far as I know the Burisma stuff has been investigated, the other two it's not clear whether there is an investigation or not
When Steve Bannon and Rudy Giulliani are the guys that are bringing those allegations to the surface (which was the case for all of these things), I think a healthy dose of skepticism is appropriate
well how about investigating the orange creeps secret account in China
How about making it easier for people to vote :)
I just read Politico article from 10/22 regarding the mysterious laptop, that must be the reference to Russian disinformation - Guilliani sets off bells and sirens.
There's also an NBC article yesterday about a dossier on Biden in China, that is an interesting read: https://tinyurl.com/y2333ps
I find it amazing that people would vote for a party that has not put forth a single platform for anything - just a campaign full of inuendo and outright lies.
I'm not surprised, most of us make decisions based on emotion rather than facts
well, being in Florida, I sent my ballot in three weeks ago I tracked it online and they have it. The lastest unbelievable thing that happened yesterday I think, was it was so hot in Florida and people were passing out and falling to the ground. Some had to be taken to the hospital. The fire department came and spraye
Motivating people emotionally is much easier in a sense than the dull policy making part of the conversation
It's easier to paint things as good/bad... nazi/socialist... liberal/leftist vs conservative, racist whatever label you want to use
the problem is we are so divided now, no one believes anything, true or not, if it goes against what they think or which party they are with.
If you look at what Trump and many in the administration focus on, is using labels and terms to drive emotion
sprayed a mist over the crowd to help them cool off. Trump had NO idea what was happening and called out friend or foe to the fools in the crowd. If foes, get those blank blank out of here He was talking about the FIREMEN. absolutely clueless.
hi all. can someone help me with a missing top T pls
well, Carla -- there are those that believe Trump was sent by God
Which begs the question -- Did God run out of locusts?
all tw, peri
The most telling point in the debates for me is when Biden called Trump a clown and then quickly apologized, thought that was a pretty telling difference
now that made me chuckle nan
ok carla. I have 2 tw 4/8
Part of Bannon's strategy was to create an environment where trusted sources could not be trusted
peri, tw 5/20
by doing that, you can manipulate people more effectively
not my joke, mool -- but made me laugh too when I read it
ty looking
bobby brady was probably called tw5 by greg and peter
For those that are interested in reading more about that: https://tinyurl.com/taljf4c
hmm still not seeing it
Understanding Bannon's worldview is really interesting, albeit pretty scary
peri, use the other w
ah thank you, carla!!

someone's dog is barking incessantly. how annoying.
as long as it doesn't make you go all "son of sam" hoke
i remember the shock at listening to Bannon and Priebus at CPAC in Jan. 2017 - they said it right out loud - our mission is to deconstruct the administrative state. And wow, they have done a rip roaring job.
it may be telling me to kill it
yoiks

well done, peri. don't forget your tiara on the way out.
there are so many birds in the world, at least 2 in the grid. can you tell me the point total, please?
*!*~*!* babblets for the most part and a couple I had to monkey
1265
sorry, I was referring to dan's clue
not total points
I'm guessing my 3 4's are babblets, but where are they
re + anagram of bird's home - not a bird
sorry -- that was an +
an 6/18
there are a lot of babblets
on my way -- supposed to get a high of 10C today and we're almost there -- have a couple of rose bushes I need to put to bed :)
no idea what that is but it sounds cold
65F here and it feels cold after yesterday's tropical storm 82F
50F hoke
10C=50F
brrr. the older I get the more I want it to be 70F every day.
heh, I like the seasons
I used to. I do love fall & spring, but I could do without winter now.
70 is probably the nicest temp, but I'd get bored if it was only ever that
11 to go
still 7 :| going to have to list I guess.
what letters again?
10
almost have a reptile: K N SSS AA
SSNAAKS
probably the same K I'm looking for
Will an amphibian do?
the n....do you have the believer in new things?
there's an a4 that is an egyptian symbol
I want those @$#@$ snakes off this @#@#! plane!
those are probably both good guesses
ok, got the N, now only 4's and 6's left. 3 of each
and the k's I have are a set, so probably the same K as yours but you have been known to miss easy things like that.
hi jan!
now I just have the music genre of SSSKAA
found the k!
5 left: SASSA
10 left
Hi back at ya, carla!
9 to go
there's a s4! 4 left - 1 4 (which I presume is the egyptian a) and 3 6 (which I know one is an6). SSAA
now I have A ASS
8 to go
I swear I have tried every possible a4 combo of letters possible. did I say possible?
found the k
BBL...gotta teach a Zoom class.
you know that egyptian cross with the loop on the top?
not sure how that K took us so long
bye jan!
enjoy jan
7 to go
I would probably know it if I saw it but not sure I knew the name of it
sheesh, these words I'm missing are easy ones
thinking how to clue it....sounds like the beginning of a boat stopper
well, I just looked at the list and saw the point total, and I knew it was going to have that letter in it and thought I tried all combos but I guess I didn't
or I mistyped it before
I would love a different clue on this an6 as I really think I've tried everything there too.
still don't have the an6
ok
an + anagram of bird home
oh duh
ok, that changes things from dan's clue
it's a commonly found babblet
normally we have the 5 letter and the 6...but in this grid it's just the 6
I still can't see it in the grid but know the babblet and typed it in.
2 S6 left
ne-s-nw-sw-w
SS
thx molly
E,H,S,S,W
yep, thx
wow, one of my s6 I just clued the other day from someone. so I saw it easily that day and not at all today.
*for someone
had to get the last one by points. never seen it before.
and hey, it's a derogatory term!
sounds ominous
still 5 to go here, have been doing calls
ah, there's a 7 I was missing
was one of the 6s you were missing a colour?
yes, that's the one I was saying I just clued the other day
I have been working on trying to fix our griddle top again
Any clue for TW? 5/20
twank
sorry goofed

twittlebro
still have 4 to go here
afternoon all - wondering if I could get a hint for the RE7 please - for FW.
NM - got it
what's left, moo?
won't accept wank? vey commonly sued verb, at least in my part of the country
used not sued
agreed, akazev, i thought that too. it used to take wanker.
Thanks for the feedback. I often try words like nano and they are not accepted. What period in time was the data base set up. I do admit I am leaning lots of archaic Scottish words for pond, slick se=urfaces and hillsides. Very useful at (zoom) cocktail parties
Wait how can it be that "it used to take wanker"? The Enable Word List has not been changed in 20 years.
it's removed a lot in the last six months, Molly.
this site hasn't updated which version it uses, but the master list has changed.
wanker had never been in Enable to my knowledge
Could be i misremember across 15 years. Though i do know the work list has shrunk.
word
Enable word list hasn't shrunk, the OSPD - official scrabble players dictionary did shrink back in the mid 1990s, but then expanded somewhat in recent years
wank, wanker and wanking are not typically used in the US, so weren't included, but if you play with the UK dictionary - which is way more permissible on words - they are in there
Hi everyone. It looks like Christmas here in RI. I'll take it over the rain.
I totally tried wank and have tried wanker in other grids
because of ... lights and other decorations or snow?
Snow. Just stopped after 8 this morning.
yall enjoy that.
here, over half the trees still have leaves.
ours do too. it's so weird.
oh, aren't they usually bare up there by now? Or at least right near bare?
I am enjoying it seain from inside.
:) yay
we have lots of evergreens and the snow is sticking to them in big fluffy globs.
The leaves are just starting to turn here.
is that a word ?
two of our daughters were visiting from the west coast and they just missed this winter wonderland
3 to go
which letters are you missing mool ?
H,S,W
I am done if you'd like clues.
think I'm good thanks
I figured. Do you mind me asking what moolingwa stands for ?
it actually stands for nothing at all
Some years ago, on a similar word game, I forgot my password on my account
so not a Maori term .
Wow, snow for Halloween. That is WAY too early for me. I would be depressed.
got frustrated and made up a name...and this is just what popped into my head
no, not at all
it's catchy
Moolingwa just popped into your head?
yes
I didn't sit down and craft it, it was basically spur of the moment
People might be surprised at what just pops into my head.
Or, then again, maybe not. 😈
way too early for snow here
already had two snows here, including one September 8th
nice to see you Soodle no matter what.
Hey soods, late for you no?
Hey, Soodle :-)
