    That was challenging. Got it in one sitting, but still.

    This one went pretty smoothly for me, I was surprised to see it was a really hard 5/5

    That’s a lot of traps. Really? K pop demon hunter? Complex as a centaur?

      From experience they pretty much never do groups like k pop demon hunter, where the connection is just that they’re part of the same name of something

      They’ve done like words from an expression or tongue twister, but I feel like I’ve only really ever seen the name of some movie or media property as a red herring. I feel like it’s not abstract enough that the designers would go for it.

      I’ve never heard of complex as a centaur, and a google didn’t turn anything up, is that a thing…?

      Unicorn wasn’t fully written, so it couldn’t fit normally with the other imaginary things that had the full words. I don’t think I’d have thought of the double meaning of “i” without you pointing it out but I usually don’t think about math much :)

    Had to go look at hints because what the hell are yellow and purple. Blue also becomes way harder since it’s always all caps.

    I really couldn’t tell which was gonna be the easier of yellow vs green today. I thought for sure green would be the easier category.
