First off, I'm usually pretty good at solving these puzzles. However today my guesses were off the mark and I didn't get any of the colors. I feel so dumb. Did any of you have trouble or was it just me. I guess my connections were just not connecting. LOL ☹️

I'm happy if I get one of those 4 choices connections!!  Today was one of those days.   I think some of those "connections" are a bit of a stretch--LOL!!!

I stared at today's puzzle for a long time.  I only got two categories today.  It always amazes me how they come up with those categories.  It's a great game to play.

NYT connections?  I love doing those.  Some are things I don't know and couldn't know: Sports, movies (Disney especially) so if I don't get those I don't worry.

 

Fun to play though!  I can usually figure it out if it is something I am at all culturally familiar with.

It took me awhile today.

 

I kept thinking of David Lynch movies, which I guess was the trick.

I haven't done today's yet so cannot comment on that, but I often google "connections hints" to help nudge me along the right path.  Is it cheating?  Probably.  Do I care?  Nope.

@Bri369 , It really makes you think doesn't it ?

Yes, I play the NYT games everyday.  Todays stumped me; only got one. Smiley Sad.
