My dad always starts Wordle with the same 3 words, and it just feels wrong
If you're only guessing three more at most, doesn't that take some of the joy out of it?


On a recent family trip, I learned my dad always starts Wordle with the same three words. I know this is a ridiculous hill to die on, but for some reason, this doesn’t sit right with me. It’s not that his approach is ineffective — quite the opposite. But to me, it drains the joy out of the game.
It’s a bit like ordering the same meal at your favorite restaurant every time you go, even if it’s the best thing on the menu. You’re not wrong, exactly. You’ll no doubt enjoy it. But where’s the variety? Where’s the spice?
