Wordle Review

I consider myself to be someone who, at minimum, has a robust vocabulary. Not a walking thesaurus by any means, but certainly competent.

This game kills that perception of myself, grind with a pestle into a smooth paste until my self confidence is scraped from the mortar. I feel like an absolute imbecile every time I play it. It's as though all of my years have lead to this moment in which I'm physically incapable of thinking of a five letter word.

I seriously don't know why I'm like this. Most people have streaks in the hundreds of days. Yet I stand atop my mountain of shame and tears, wavering at the thought of conjuring a word which begins with a G and has two Os on it.

Woe is me.

I haven't played in forever due to the demonstrable impact on my mental health it had. Any attempt to try again immediately returns me to this place.
