Another miserable failure.
I saw the palindromes but couldn’t find a fourth. I also was looking for the “bro speak” but there were too many options.

I don’t see what’s an “add-on/combination” about half the BLUEs.

Struggled mightily but guessed my way through. Interesting combination of purple oldster speak and blue kid speak. I seems to have fallen in between.
Saturday. Blue seemed like a Green to me.

On Friday, blue was complete leftovers, and I still have no idea what it means even after seeing the answer.

Saw the rainbow herring immediately but suspected it. Then decided to put in what I thought would be yellow but turned out to be blue. Then just put them in as I solved them. Saw green when everything else was gone.
ETA:for Friday’s blue I think they mean that these are terms that can follow another word.
For example:
I’m in my (blank) era, he’s a (blank) bro or it’s (blank) coded.
Makes sense, better than the way they phrased it.

Easy all around.

Purple leftovers, the rest were too easy for any logical order.
But that’s true for almost any word.
To be clearer, it means the word can follow another word, and in so doing the words combine to form a new conceptual term
For example, “Italian-coded” doesn’t mean “Italian”, it means “like a stereotypical Italian”.
Sunday’s was fine. No notes.

No obvious order.
It’s Monday. Before you start, I recommend you read the first line of words out loud.

The top line was very cute.

Once again no idea of the order except purple which I only saw after eliminating the other categories.

I had the same reaction - but you got the order right (other than purple).
It’s Tuesday today. This one wasn’t very good, in my opinion.
