We live in a United States that is anything but united on so many topics. Pontifications over Politics. Conflicts over Cholesterol. Squabbles over Censorship…and of course, the G.O.A.T debates of Jordan vs LeBron vs Kobe. 

But I didn’t anticipate the Wordle putting America on the brink of an Internet Implosion and/or ushering in The Apocalypse.

Some fervently defended the “word” for July 15th with ebullience. Others decried it as a 5-letter Abomination Combination lacking true word-worthy qualifications.

And as we stood on the precipice of Wordle War 3, I asked my wife, who is a dedicated Wordler, what she thought about the people accusing the New York Times of High Treason against our native tongue.

Her response? A dismissive wave of her hand accompanied by one “word.”

“Pshaw!”
