You guys make a habit of getting first.

You guys make a habit of getting first.

I take a screenshot of it on my phone while I'm still in bed. Then, in photo editor, I mark colors on sets of four. When I have all of them sorted out, I figure out which one I think is purple and put that in first - unless I never figure purple out in which case I put it last.

Same here, just with my Samsung S pen.

What the hell was that?

[Mikey]

Three out of four purples were pretty straightforward but the fourth took some reaching. The current Google doodle sure helped.

Other than that these were almost straightforward for Connections categories. Did the regular lady take the day off?

Awful today. Just awful. Lady... comeon.

[Mikey]

It was better than the rodents one for me. Fewer red herrings, I thought.

I'm glad this puzzle isn't timed like the quizzes on my regular site funtrivia.com.

Amateur...

My first guess could not have been "wronger"
