Wordle is a fun little game to waste your time while drinking your morning cup of coffee. The Slimes posts it daily ;1 word a day. You get 6 chances or less to solve the word by guessing the word and then eliminating letters or rearranging letters that you have gotten correct.

Harmless enough ;no cotroversy .......right ?

Wrong.

This is another instance where you would think a satire publication like Babylon Bee had created the story . But it is truth

The Slimes decided that a word had to be cancelled . Because of the current debate over abortion because of the apparent SCOTUS decision to overturn the abortion Roe and Casey decisions They decided to drop the word of the day .

FETUS

New York Times Changes Wordle Answer From ‘Fetus’ ‘to Remain Distinct From the News’| National Catholic Register (ncregister.com) (https://www.ncregister.com/cna/new-york-times-changes-wordle-answer-from-fetus-to-remain-distinct-from-the-news)

Oh the irony .They aborted 'FETUS ' .

I would add that today's word should also be cancelled lest it offend teetotalers and /or alcoholics .(sorry in advance about the tip)

This excessive concern about offending people has reached epidemic proportions. It's just ridiculous. My football coaches back in the day seemed to have but little care about me being offended.
