I’m honestly feeling a bit jaded and cynical at this point. Maybe everything everyone ever told me is just a lie. How can anything be good and true and honest in a world where I’d sneeze that many times and still be congested? Forgive me, but my motivation is like the dried up well you find while wandering the desert.
I am tired and sapped. Instead of waxing poetic about Wordle and word puzzle games and all that jazz, I give you this amazing new song from The National and Rosanne Cash: Isn’t that lovely?

Wordle Bot Analysis After each Wordle I solve I head over to the Wordle Bot homepage to see how my guessing game was. This one took me a fair while to complete. I think having a word with three of the same letters can really throw off your game! Or maybe I’m excuses.
Either way, my opening guess— glare— did next to nothing. I had one yellow ‘A’ and 188 remaining possible solutions. Shout slashed that number down to 43, which is still a lot, and manic shaved off all but 9.
From here, I guessed bawdy which left me with just two: paddy and daddy and I went with what I thought was most likely. I think being a dad helped me this time around: Daddy for the win! Huzzah! Today’s Score I lost big time today. -1 point for guessing in five and -1 point for losing to the Bot, who got it in four.
-2 total. Boo! P. S.
I found both mine and Wordle Bot’s guessing game funny today. Here are three words in a row from each of our guesses. I’m on the left with ‘manic bawdy daddy’ and the Bot went with ‘Corny budge daddy’.
I like mine better. (of course, this excludes opening guesses). Wordle Credit: Erik Kain Today’s Wordle Etymology The word “daddy” is a diminutive form of the word “dad” or “father.
” Its etymology can be traced back to the early 16th century. The term “daddy” likely evolved from the word “dada,” which was an informal or childish way of saying “father” or “dad” in English during that time. It was originally used affectionately by children when addressing their fathers, similar to how “mommy” developed from “mama” for mothers.
The exact origins of the word “daddy” are not entirely clear, but it is believed to have developed through a process of linguistic reduplication, where a syllable or part of a word is repeated for emphasis or affection. In this case, the “-y” suffix was added to “dad” to create “daddy. ” Over time, “daddy” became a common and endearing term for fathers in English-speaking cultures.
