Kinda mad. Thought I had yellow figured out.

Huh, they rated this one 5/5 for difficulty, but I didn't think it was that bad. Misjudged blue vs purple though.

What the hell is >!lemon law!<?!

Explanation for the above question

I find the NYT games only seem to be US-centric answers. So, it's a US based law about getting something that is already broken, but it's not disclosed before purchase. Generally used around cars.

Something about >!shit cars!< I think.

Can't use the Reddit spoiler syntax on Lemmy. It has to be done with this syntax:

[visible spoiler explanation text][Text to be hidden inside the spoiler]

But yeah, I have no idea. I had to Google that myself. I only got purple because it was what was left over after I had already figured everything else out.

[–] MrGG@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 weeks ago

Whoops! Thanks for the spoiler tip. I'm using the Sync for Lemmy app and used the built-in spoiler tool, which apparently hasn't been updated from the Reddit version.

Any time there's a pop culture reference like movies, I mess it up.
