Wordle Fans Rattled After People Got Two Different Words on Wednesday
Some people got the word Harry, others had the word stove and wordle fans were very upset because they’re trying to compete with their friends. The NYT explained that they realized the word harry is too uncommon and archaic to be a suitable word so they changed it.
That’s weird, because my word was cunty.
Alright something fishy is going on with today's #Wordle284. My husband and I solved completely different words & both were correct? I thought the whole point of the game was that the answer key was universal 🤔

There could be a few reasons why your husband and you solved different words. One possibility is that you both got the answer key from a different source. Another possibility is that you both got the answer key from the same source but interpreted it differently. If

Tennis Star Nick Kyrgios Had Another Outlandish Meltdown
At the Miami Open this weekend, Kyrgios had a tantrum on the court, tearing into a referee. There was racket throwing, there was screaming, and after Kyrgios lost, he continued the battle. “When everyone in that crowd is booing an umpire, and he’s becoming the center of attention, that’s not his job,” Kyrgios said. “Because no one in that entire stadium bought a ticket to see him talk or play or do what he does.” He later ranted on Instagram
There will be umpires long after you are gone.
I can officially say I’ve captured a Kyrgios meltdown in person ✅ #MiamiOpen pic.twitter.com/N3dAhjWuxF

From the start of the debacle at this point, that after his return iirc Kyrgios said he talked to a friend “what is unsportsmanlike” in his defense after Bernardes handed the game to Sinner from what I could understand (after that line and more after).

Comedy Clubs Worried About Security
Part of the fallout of the slap heard round the world is that comedy clubs are concerned about needing more security. “I’m going to talk to my staff, just for this weekend, and say, ‘We definitely need you by the stage now. That is your post.’ Just in case someone is just trying to re-create a moment or feels emboldened by what Will Smith did. And it’s unfortunate,” said Curtis Shaw, of the Chicago Improv. “There’s going to definitely be some sort of announcements and things made preshow to let the audience know, ‘Hey, this is all in good fun — but don’t you even think that you can engage with the comedian and you definitely cannot physically engage or try to approach the stage.”
And the bar shows will still have none.
