GLOGG did nothing of course so I decided to spread a little CHEER. With the H dropping in and the R, E somewhere. I decided that the R went with the H and it HAD to be RHYME. But alas no. So then of course it was SHARE. I enjoy sharing Wordle here every morning. Cheers to all for a good New Year!
A two-guess solve for me today that was as close as I've ever come--and, likely, ever will come--to getting the correct answer with one guess. STARE>SHARE.
Merry Christmas, everyone! 🎅🏻 Love the outfit, Doug. Christmas morning, I look down, and I have 4 of the letters. But what to do? It was a 50/50 with share and spare. (Although a “1” would have been nice.) I went with “share” in the spirit of giving. Yay! So a “2” for me this Christmas morning. StARE- SHARE Happy Holidays, fellow Wordlers.
My ship came in with CHOSE as the starter: CHOSE and SHARE for a 2. It was a 50-50 between share and shale. My streak is at 1,050. Merry Christmas 🎅 everyone!
A nice start today fizzled into a four-word solve. Bah Humbug! LEARN ("A" and "R" in position, "E" out of position.) SPARE ("S", "A","R", and "E" all in position.) SCARE (No change. "S", "A", "R", and "E" in position.) SHARE (Got it in 4.) Merry Christmas to All!!
Merry Christmas Doug and Everyone! I got today's Wordle in 4 guesses today: AUDIO SPARE CHANT SHARE I almost got the Wordle in two guesses today on Christmas, but geez, there are 5+ words that look like this: SXARE Possibilities could've been: SHARE, SPARE, SCARE, SNARE, STARE, etc. But throwing that little extra word: CHANT, Helped me to solve the Wordle in 4 for the word SHARE And why not? Christmas is a season of sharing and caring. Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas everyone!
My Christmas present was Doug's reaction to Santa not being in the word list! A bogey five for me today. UMBER, RAISE, SPARE, NORTH (to evaluate snare, stare and share - scare having already been an answer - and to annoy the purists!), SHARE. I am a Christmas grinch, so bah humbug, but happy wordle-ing in 2025 wished to all!!
My tried-and-true starting word STARE gave me four greens but didn't really solve it for me. Both scare and snare were previous solutions, but spare and share were still possible. I considered trying "chump" to test the H and P but soon came to the realization that it would make better sense to try my two possible solutions back-to-back. Worse case was that I'd still get it in three (which would be the case if I tried chump on my second guess). Best case was that I would get the "coveted two guess solve" that Doug often speaks of. Unfortunately I got the 50-50 wrong and went for SPARE first. Oh well. SHARE gave me the birdie three.
Merry Christmas Doug to you and your loved ones. You really look festive. We like to gather and sing Christmas songs. Christmas carols lift the spirit of the holiday in our household. Really fun.

Oh and boo for Wordle not accepting SANTA or CLAUS as viable words. How about invoking a touché starting word that’s also a homage to Connections homophones: CLAWS.
