Pennsylvania is the state where the most objects are dropped for New Year's Eve, including a crayon, Pac-Man, a 100-pound stick of bologna, a pair of yellow pants,a rhombicuboctahedron, and a 400-pound Peep.
If you can still say "rhombicuboctahedron" at 12:05, you can have another drink.

OK, KitchenAid. It's one thing to not have phone or chat support during the days/hours listed on your website. It's another to make me go through the whole phone tree of describing what I need only to end with "sorry, you've called outside of business hours" and hang up.

Interesting math for someone who is not me to do:
If I'm counting right, we have 698 Wordle words left. Assuming you could remember the 1,611 words that have been used, are the "best" starting words still the same given the remaining ones?
