BOGUSSPRINKLE
Official -easily happily
Yep, me too.
First time in a while that I had a quick and easy solve.
Official-land here as well. I contemplated PROLOGUE, EPILOGUE, SINOLOGUE, PIROGUE, BRINKS, BLINKS, SILKEN, BRISKEN, GULPS, and PLUGS, while BOURGEONS was rejected.
Me too lots of fun words in this array waiting for u all to figure some more out but i am off to sleep
Official for me too.
Official here too, right out of the gate with Sprinkle… Somehow it’s disappointing when it’s too easy, and maddening when it’s too hard. Yesterday’s was in the Goldilocks Zone.
Agreed, Bernie! Let that be once in a while, however, or else it too will become boring…
Bernie, same! The win is more satisfying if it’s hard-earned.
The problems that are worthy of attack prove their worth by fighting back. 🙂
got on the very first attempt…
I also just found BOBOLINKS – SPLURGE 15/2 (high-flying, high-spending vertebrates), which I’m backing DW to perhaps work out.
Good use of the “B”.
Building upon:
BOBOLINKS—SPOROGENOUS
Just found it! But only after finding the official. Once again the word list disappoints by rejecting SPELUNK (though I couldn’t pair it with anything; it’s just a great word).
You live up to your birder credentials, DW, same as the word list lives up to it’s disgraceful notoriety. SPELUNK is new on me, apparently Greek-rooted & really cool. And, on the subject of coolness, I think I’m right in saying that caves, n general, retain a constant temperature all year long.
… as do underground structures like subway stations etc.
BOBOLINKS—SPLURGE for me, too!
Not the most thematically taut, but more so than the official. (The bakers of my family will confirm: sprinkles may be superfluous, but they are never, ever bogus.)
Official. Sprinkle came very quickly, bogus took an embarrassingly long time afterwards.
Official, yes; also:
OBELISKS—SPOROGENOUS
I was determined to pair ‘obelisks’; I found ‘sporogenous’ in the process.
So the obelisks are producing spores. ☺
BLUR ↘️
BLUR—RIP—PONS—SKEG
KNOB—BLUR—RIP—PEGS
KEGS—SNOB—BLUR—RIP
PONS—SKEG—GIB—BLUR
I’m really digging this variant of the game, Mark!
Fastest I’ve ever got it, my first guess was a 3 word answer PROROGUE ELKS SNIB, right away, then I immediately got SPRINKLE and BOGUS right afterward.
Started with OBELISKS but then saw SPRINKLE and got the official answer. It went quickly for a change!
Official and immediate, as well.
Today’s seems to have many two-word solutions. I got “RAMBLING” and “GOLFED.” Simple words, neither as creative nor multisyllabic as several solutions already presented here!
Happy to have found this place to share and see what others have done with the day’s letter boxed puzzle!😃
BOBOLINKS/SPLURGE.
bogus – sprinkle
Official. I have a question. How many of you write down the words you find, and how many of you just keep them in your head?
Used to write/type them all down. Only do it rarely now—when I suspect a word (or part of it) might be useful later.
Official here. And pretty quickly. Yay!
In answer to Jay, I have written down the words I find, particularly when I suspect a compound word , like breadboard , is part of the solution. With a list of short words I can then see if any work together.
bourgs – sprinkle
