It’s Thursday where I am. Largely straightforward, but I didn’t figure out Purple.

At last, it’s Friday. Did okay, but even after seeing the solution, I don’t know anything about Purple so I remain none the wiser.

I got Thursday without errors, but I was a little worried for a bit about what turned out to be blue.

I also saw a potential red herring, but with only three things that fit it: slang for a car.

3590

That was my first guess. I saw four: auto, ride, whip, and wheels.

Fell for a red herring twice (music chord terms - thought I was just one off) and then reset my priorities and it was plain sailing.

Didn’t really get green and definitely not purple.

3593

That was what i saw first, but i was uncertain, so i looked for other connections.

And found them.

Dark & stormy, black & tan, gin & tonic, i dunno, lots of mixed drinks with soda.

3594

Thanks, I have not heard of half of those.

It’s Saturday, now, and this one was kind of childishly easy.

One blip on Purple - knew what the connection was, but thought VOLTAGE fit the theme - I was thinking of JOLT :man_facepalming: ! Also CRUSH is not a brand we get here - I always assumed REM were singing about some kind of orange squash/mix not a soda..

3597

Been a minute for a reverse. Guess I just have to wait for the easier ones. Ha ha

Whereas I saw the red herring and thought it was too obscure to be a red herring, so it HAD to be a real category.

I don’t recognize most of the purples as actual words, though. So that was weird.
