Let's Play Connections

A Perfect today with Green by default. I got Purple first today.
 
Not today, not for me.

Impressed if you saw the green (or any of these for that matter).
Phooey on you Connections!

A lucky Perfect today with Purple by default.
 
I wrote it out on paper. After a couple bad days, I needed to break my streak.

I took a gamble on chain mail? It isn't what I thought at all, but it worked.

My little ray of sunshine after starting with the wrong Wordle word today, was knowing the purple once I got down to it.

Next time (I hope)! I had yellow and purple written down on paper correctly, but obviously didn't think it through enough.

I was due for a good day!
I'm not sure about those stats. The current streak of 1 is true.
It sure feels like I've done a whole lot more than 74.

Thankfully, I did not see CARET, CATER, CRATE, TRACE (my sister asked if I fell for that trap, nope - didn't see it).

A Perfect today with Purple by default.
 
YESTERDAY - I got wrapped up in the green and purple, too. Barely got it in seven, but purple sort of by default (I was thinking things that recur - like a geyser will erupt again - I wasn't thinking of it as a spring). Oh well, on to Saturday.

Saturday looks much better:

I didn't fall for the shirt types (tank, crop, tee, polo). Almost, but not today connections!

Rant:

Finally got one solved that didn't make me scratch my head, wondering WTH they were talking about.

I have a Love/Hate (or maybe it's a Tolerate/Really Dislike) relationship with this game. Trying to like it, I really am, but I don't think I really do. It's annoying a lot of the time, and I don't think it's just me.

Some of the so-called connections they claim involve words I've never heard of, or where three make sense and the fourth word is like, "Really? You're saying THAT WORD fits here? Seriously??"

It isn't a case of them choosing a connection theme I've never heard of. I can live with what I don't know. But when the relationship is so obscure, there is no way an average person would choose those words to fit together. And it's not even a case of defaulting together at the end. Because even when the supposed connection is revealed, why they chose that word still doesn't make sense. It comes across as them trying to show how clever they are, and how dense I am. But they have the advantage, because they can claim any sort of connection they want.

And I guess the biggest complaint I have is there is no way to improve solving these, because there's no consistency in how they make their connections. Some days, like today, it's straightforward and makes sense. Other days I feel I'm shooting spitballs, trying to see what sticks.

Not really a fan. Which is why I'm ambivalent most days whether I solve the thing. Where's the fun in that?
