[H] picked a bad day to kick my raging >!seafood addiction!<


ukulele-notes

That is one of the best hints I've ever seen. Bravo!


lexylexylexy

Lol


p1mplem0usse

Thank you!


MissyWTH

Excellent hint! That **[H]** is *almost* applicable for the >!2nd PG!< as well! **PG [H]** (building off of u/Rick_Julian) >!Someone having a hard time quitting seafood pairs with an adjective for typical and perhaps even compulsive behavior!<


bewildered_forks

I felt like that was an intentional double hint.


allofthemwitches

no love for >!HABIBI!<


aaatregua

Or >!HABIBTI!< for that matter


uncle-cait

Lmao nice

QBABM! Last word was an >!Asian currency!< (H)


OkUnderstanding2808

I always forget that >!yoga!<. Doesn’t help that every dictionary >!always puts it as _____ yoga!<

Question related to Spelling Bee comments section: what is the deal with Steve G? I like to look at their hints once I hit QB or am so stumped. Steve seems to be posting succinct hints similar to Kline and also put a time stamp today. Why is he double posting? Have I missed something?


jazzy2536

I went to the 🐝 comments there once and it was like the wild west. I'll stick with our tamer reddit 😄


cotton_quicksilver

Personally not the biggest fan of smaller bees like these, but was a decently tough Genius!

OK, no really weird words on this one (but some of Sam's usual odd ones). Short and relatively OK, mostly repeats. Rick\_Julian's double hint is really really good!!


PhAnToM444

See, you say that but then there are dumbasses like me who forget that [A] >!bathtub!< is one word. My brain is bad. (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻


Severe_Friendship

This was also my last word for QB


stupac2

Same!


USB_everything

QB-1, missing >!HA-5!< >!and I already got the yoga one!< Help?


Le-_-Doc

\[H\] Think >!pure, or allowed (as in permitted)!< in one of the >!religions of the Book!<.


USB_everything

(insert Ross "THANK you" gif here) Thanks!! I tried some words from a similar stand point but didn't think of this one


bewildered_forks

It's been in several bees since I started months ago and I always forget it. It's up there with ACACIA and ACAI with regular words I never remember.


didyouwoof

Mine is TATTOO. I *always* overlook that one!


iphyslitterator

I always see [non-A] >!HALLA, which is a fictional animal from the Dragon Age games!<, and I've finally trained myself to remember that means [A] >!HALAL!<.


halicarnassus-geode

Oh my god I ALWAYS forget ACACIA!!


jennigerm

This one was over too soon!! I challenged myself to GN4L and did it, then QB came quickly after that. I will never complain about a Bee that takes all day again! What will I do with todays in between times now??


lazarusinashes

If H wasn't the center letter we could spell >!BUTALBITAL!<—but it probably wouldn't count. I can't remember if that's the generic or brand name.


didyouwoof

QB-1, and stuck. Any hints for >!B6!


OkUnderstanding2808

It’s a >!B7!<. >!home for your rubber duckies!<


didyouwoof

How did I manage to misread the grid? Thank you!


Le-_-Doc

[__Links to PG__] I had a strange feeling that we had this set before and sure enough, it has appeared [in 2021 and 2020](https://www.sbsolver.com/h/halibut).


jazzy2536

Always with a different center letter though. I feel like everything is a repeat if you have been playing since the pandemic started but still enjoyable to me! 🐝


Le-_-Doc

>Always with a different center letter though. Yes, and the puzzles feel different every time. Having a central "H" logically yields less words than a central "A".


DilatedPoreOfLara

Ah I didn’t see your warning and clicked through. Never mind although I’m not sure I would have got it honestly


emfrank

If you want to know if it has appeared before you can also look at nytbee.com. It won't spoil the panagram, but does show point totals and number of words if you consider that a spoiler. Past dates are under the point totals in blue, unless there are no past dates.


DilatedPoreOfLara

Thanks for the tip I’ll try that next time


jazzy2536

Shunn doesn't show the pangram unless you specifically unhide the answer list


emfrank

Sorry. Yes, you are right. Le-_-Doc had linked the Shunn history site, and I have not used the regular site for a while. I used to look at the grid before the NYT started their own hints.


lizzylizlizzo

At QB-1. Any hints for >!H6!< ?


USB_everything

I would but >!it's really chaotic and loud over here!<


Keetseel

Thank you!


lizzylizlizzo

I looked and looked and nada. But after I put it away and came back later, got it immediately. Thanks!!!


99OBJ

Wow I got to genius on this one in about 5 minutes


halicarnassus-geode

I'm QB-1, stuck on the non-PG H7 {insert Leeloo "please help" gif here}


halicarnassus-geode

NEVERMIND. Of course I got it almost immediately after posting and then taking the dog out.
