phantom - anecdote
crashing - 120 for tomorrow
goodnight all :)
an8 (uhhh.. thanks, broll!)
ty freep and broll (why didn't I try that sooner?)
I mean, I've heard lots of stories about it working, but we didn't have proof, Gillie.
hah! thank you!
phantom - necrotic
well conehead is not a word
it is from France, SuzeeQ
People who don't know the Coneheads are wondering why someone thinks that is a French word. They probably don't give out beer and fried eggs on Halloween either. : D
hello all
Le7
Morning, all.....90 to go....
morning. 234 to go!
Go Lindy! :-)
phantom: anecdote
250 to go, hi all !!
Hi Gwen! bojazz, I feel like you should be able to say, “that argument is too anecdoty to be compelling.â€
hi windingwake
actually that word is accepted with a different end vowel
miles5 passed: nbt, nbs, halfway done, woot
dacron -- not a word
phantom:encroach
69 to go, taking a pause
phantom: anchor
phantom: necrotic
Aweigh! (Do you know how many people think that song is "Anchors Away"?)
there's a song?
how can you be squeamish without squeam?
my pet peeve is baited and bated -- waiting with baited breath always sound fishy
i don't like it when i'm reading SCHOLARLY articles and i find a misuse of a word. recently i saw "exalt" when they meant "exult" and "exacerbated" when they meant "exasperated"
they don't pay editors enough
stocade
not a word anyway--apologies
yeah you would need a k lol
i don't advocate book disfigurement but i'm very tempted to line edit sometimes, if i read a book that have too many of these mistakes, I generally stop reading
Anchor's Aweigh is the theme song of the Navy.
ohhh dear i really should have known that then
also a musical -- broadway and film, film version with blue eyes and gene kelly
also, apart and a part are not the same thing.
Ec7 clue please? Thanks!
what we are currently doing to the planet
ends like other words for the murder of various specific things or people
huh, didn't realize that was a word, hurshy
tis
At least we got around to naming the problem?
phantom: orchid
clue for ti6 please?
like the popular video-sharing site
thank you
*People scratch their heads and wonder how YouTube starts with ti. 😊.
exactly, molly
ooh i found an 8!
name that proper noun! cannibalistic serial killer
lector
but that's a real word
no, i was thinking of a real person
and i think it's hannibal lecter, anyway
I just got here, still on first A
dahmer
ding ding ding!
weird they're both here (even though the one is misspelled)
phantom: dictator
ar6 - how meta
Nobody sends me to Google more than Carla
you don't know hannibal or dahmer?
or what meta means
(wondering if hokie has an ar6 i don't have since neither of mine seem very meta)
a lot of the words on enable are ar6
I have three and I have no idea what she is talking about. Hannibal and Dahmer are ar6?
haha, i was looking for that word and thought it was not here
thanks
no, they have nothing to do with it
thank you for getting it 😜
This chat is often like a river when it splits into three directions at once.
i found another 88!
i mean 8!
lol
meta is kinda like self-aware
molly, you know a dream is like a river, ever changing as it flows.
it means it's kind of on a higher level of analysis. like a research study will study a particular phenomenon, but a meta-study will do a study of all the studies.
metaphysics is about what might lie beyond the physical universe
But self aware is not what ar6 means. That is why I was confused. It means obscure or esoteric.
yes, I'm saying it's meta that it's in the grid since most of the words are that.
she was just saying that many babble words are ar6
Well her original comment was ar6 how meta. Never mind, I am the one not tracking. I should just observe.
maybe I'm just too cool for you all 😜
what's nice about pets is how easy it is to make them happy
true, and they always love you
like right now, opie is cuddling with me and napping. so like all i had to do was sit here and babble
phantom: remedy
yep, I sat on the couch to babble and winston came and sat right next to me
good grief. I wasn't going to try ha6 because of course it's a name, but of course it's also not a name.
truly.. where art thou?
my brain is on dogs
oh was I barking up the wrong tree?
one more R to grey the bottom row
ooh i got it!
I got distracted. still on the C on 2nd row.
are there any ty words?
no
a supermodel/tv host
but only a NTPN
yeah i meant ones that count, lol
thanks aslindy

rhymes with name from sci-fi cartoon show Rick & Mo5
thank you
feels like disque should be canadian or uk english
tisque, tisque
cheque one two, is this thing on?
If they pay by cheque, why don't they sit on the deque?
Or get in a car wreque?
to be fixed by a mechanique
yeah, a lot of holes in this
I don't mean to be a pain in the neque
Tx for do5 hursh!
Clue for an8 please?
The little story word with a vowel on the end
Different vowel

59 left here...
i need to get some lunch....bbl to finish....
bye all...
good morning all - I'm guessing the last half isn't as heasy as the first..,
ty vic - good clue
LOL! once you get it, look up the definition of related he 5, he 6, and he 8
only ha 6 I have is also a character in a play
oh, you said he - too early in the morning for me
rehi - not sure the 8 is actually related, but that is funny about the 5, 6, and the related 4. never looked it up before.
and thanks, did not have the 6 or 8
and I do not have an ha6 so I guess I'll look for that.
always forget that is a word
ok - only he 6 I have is a head covering, so I guess there is another
morning fellow word nerds
moooo
back for my last 250, see if I can knock any of these off
hooooke :)
I just finished wordle and dordle so I might be a word nerd
nice
I'm sure you can find a word or two
38 left here
24 so far
haven't looked at wordle yet - usually do that while waiting for the flip
wordle took me 5 today
haven't done either yet
don't know what that he 5,6,8 combo could be
I think I got 4. dordle took me 6 for one and the other was a hail mary that worked.
rhymes with a de skin word, nan
Tx vicuna!
half way
I can't see the definitions because I keep getting pop-up ads from google that block them
ty for the clue, carla
145 left here :) bbl Walmart pickup order
I know the he 8 word, but I don't see what is so funny
someone called an 8 as I was leaving last night -- has anyone found it?
it's the def of the 4 that is funny, that's why I said the 8 wasn't really related
ok - finally got the def. attached to the enable dictionary -- not the same as in the free english dictionary on line
I think it is a case of TMI in this dictionary
nm - found the an 8
50 to go
88
40...
don't think I will check this dictionary's definition of cr 6 afther that
There are 3 cr6.
read the def of he 4 and you will know which one I meant
will look for my missing cr 6 after breakfast!
found
well, 33 left...might take a break and come back later
38 here but my neighbor got locked out and is here calling locksmiths
cedi
thanks, didn't have that one
Carla, have you ever eaten at Crazy Fish?
no, don't think I've heard of that
It's around your town.
hmm, will google
it says permanently closed
in plaza-midwood, closer to downtown. we don't really go to that neighborhood/area.
Oh. I was watching Triple D and they were visiting it.
Its a rerun.
yeah, I saw guy in a photo when I googled and assumed that. oddly, the website makes it look like it's still open, only google said it was closed
I should say Guy, not a guy
I've seen some triple D episodes in Charlotte, but I don't recall that one.
oratry - the act or the art of making speeches
adoratry -- of which you would like to be the recipient
Nan, how is your husband doing?
not as well as we had hoped, bea -- he sees his oncolgist next week, so we'll know more then. Right now he has a lot of fluid build up around his lungs and in his abdomen. I think more drains are on order.
I'm sorry to heat that. Will keep you two in my prayers.
thanks for reaching out. Need to get him to the clinic just now. bbl
I'm back. dropped my phone this morning and cracked the screen so took it to get a new one.
sorry to hear that, too, nan.
aha, found my last N & R on top row. virtually the same word.
So sorry, Nan
back with 58 to go, grands are coming here, instead of me going there, so I may finish tonight....Nan, so sorry about your husband
help with an8 or el8 pls. hello all
found the el8
The an8 is like a story you tell to a friend, but the last vowel is different (it'
(it's a plural, apparently)
well I do not have a singular
No, the singular isn't in the grid. As I indicated, it ends with a vowel.
ok looking
got it thank you Gillie
yw
hi again -- thank you for all your messages. Home until hubby needs to be picked up.
i read back nan.. i hope draining helps a lot and his comfort
me too ruru
The most frutrating part is there is a chemo drug that targets the type of cancer he has but it hasn't been approved in Canada yet.
oh no
can you go outside the country to get it?
I guess they don't have a large enough group of people here to do the required testing, but it has been approved in the states. We could probably go there, but unless it is ordered by his oncologist, it won't be covered by medicare.
that would frustrate the crap out of me
like everyone else, we are at the mercy of the system
I hope things get better Nan for you guys. It's got to be very stressful
thanks, ru
sending positive thoughts to you nan and your husband. hope whatever they do helps to make him comfortable
thanks peri

Ty. Not seeing he 8s. Darn. Any meanings?
ah, the wild wild west, ru! :)
it sure was pini
just needed a break from this mooL?
no idea what the def. is for the el 8, but it begins with to vote
Sophie, do the 8s start with the top or the body or another he?
he 8 is sealed up tight
and it's not the atomic part?
the el8 that is
Got it! Ty. Got it. Fantastic clue.
I don't have a 2nd he 8, looking for it now
there are two he8s? Well...guess I should scroll back
ti6 pls
So what does the el 8 mean please moo?
el8 - part of an atom, a sub-atomic particle
el 8 is atomic, I more letter than el 7 above it
el 8: vote + Reagan
Got the el. Ty
Well i am almost at half way. Ty all
Super clues tonight

Oops - it's the negative part!
actually they're negatively charged, not that it matters
You are right moolingwa. Not been in Chem 12 for several decades..

Got it!!!!
Need a clue, Nan??
first he 8 please - can't find the ending
sorry I'm back
first 2 puzzle letters
still looking for that he 8/50
found it
sorry - didn't realize you were giving me a clue with the 1st two letter thing!
to 7 please?
nm - found
to 6 please?
I'm positive it's negative
the to 6 is a negative?
if this has something to do with physics or some other science, I have no idea
the 5, 14 oc is contained in the to 6 no idea what it means
sorry, was a joke based on an earlier chat I saw.
I did not have to6, but thanks to sophie just got it
got it, Nan?
there is only one oc 5/14 and when you sandwich it in the to it doesn't work
ha ha - blending it does though -- ty sophie
so glad this one is done and that this day is almost over. I feel like I've been running in circles all day.
Thanks for the help :)
how close are you to the finish carla -- want any help?

I'm back too. 31 left here.

TGIF everyone!
hi car...
hey car. between you and pen's niece I'm seeing so many amazing cookies in my insta feed
Its so fun!
Pen's niece is SO talented!
i will tell her you guys said so....
you both are incredible
Please do! I follow her on Insta now and love to see her work!
but I do love to watch her time-lapse decorating videos
Yes. I have no desire to do that!
I'm always like, where is she going with this, and then it all comes together perfectly.
she started experimenting with video before her first experience teaching at a cookie con....
I'm also getting recommendations for other cookie makers in my feed. I think a cookie con sounds amazing.
I have a pic to upload tonight: bottle of beer and a mug
I cannot wait for Cookie Con next year!!!!
i guess they are quite a big deal....
where will it be next year, car?...
there's also a lady here that I've been following since my oldest was in high school. someone got some jersey cookies for senior night.
Its not posted yet
i know she did one during the pandemic in Orlando....drove down to limit exposure and brought her husband to help her with her classes...
I really need to stop eating peanut butter and banana bagels whilst playing Babble. sticky fingers...drops of peanut butter and banana on the laptop....Its just a mess!
i bet!
I just bought some bananas today and thought to myself I need to make some PB&B sandwiches.
so freakin' good
It hits all the sweet, savory and salty notes at on 4
i love bagels, but i find bagel sandwiches too hard to eat...
I don't but the halves together.
*put
I can't eat real bagels anyway.
the GF ones are thicker and harder and don't taste as good.
also I grew up eating PB&B on white bread, so never thought of putting it on a bagel
i bet...my niece made gluten free cinammon rolls at Christmas one year because one of her boys can't eat gluten....her other boys complained....they just weren't as good....
my brother found some cinnamon rolls online that he says is amazing
gluten free ones?.....my niece's regular ones are amazing...
yes, GF. I can find out the name for you.
I just recently found some GF oatmeal creme pies that are so good.
if you can....i can pass it along to her....she doesn't eat them anymore because she follows a keto diet but she still makes them at Christmas....
ok, glutenfreesensations.com
gluten?
ty....
I just found some very delish baked goods at Earth Fare that are from WI I think, called Ethels.
do you buy things like that online?
I stopped sniffing Glue-ten at 23
sometimes. it's always so expensive.
hey IG
I'm off to bed. Have a great weekend everyone!
i bet...
goodnight, car....
good night, car
jonesing for it
