LOL!” But, honestly, if you can beat this without going full “This is fine” meme, you’re basically a word wizard. ✨💪🔥 **HOT TAKE**: In 2025, Strands will be the ONLY game played at family gatherings. “Grandma, put down the bingo cards; we’re STRANDING!” 🕹️👵🦄 So get ready for your next existential crisis the NYT version, ya dingus! 😜💥 Share with your fellow word warriors before I have to start charging for these insights! 💸🚀 #StrandedOnStrands
