Welcome to the weekend, everyone! I hope you have a fun weekend planned. I’m looking forward to spending more time with friends and family, and I don’t really care what we do, as long as it’s together.
Today News Connections hints and answers coming soon.
How to play connections
In ConnectionsYou are given a grid of 16 words. Your task is to sort them into four groups of four by finding the connections between them. The groups could be things like horror movie franchises, a type of verb, or rappers.
There is only one solution to each puzzle, and you have to be careful with words that fit into more than one category. You can shuffle the words to see if there are any connections between the words.
Each group is color coded. The yellow group is usually the easiest to figure out, blue and green fall in the middle, and the purple group is usually the hardest to figure out. The purple group often contains puns, so keep that in mind.
Select four words that you think go together and press Submit. If you guess incorrectly, you lose a life. If you’re close to a correct group, you may see a message that you’re one word away from the correct word, but you still have to figure out which one to swap.
If you make four mistakes, it’s game over. Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen with some hints, and if you’re really struggling, the Connections answers.

Unfortunately not a perfect game today, but I’ve won five games so far.
My first guess was completely off. It was just based on the fact that there were double letters in the middle of each word: FREEZE, RATTLE, BOTTLE, and SPOONS. I also didn’t see anything that matched PHONE, MOBILE, and CELL, so I looked elsewhere.
WASHBOARD was my gateway to the blues, which I got on the first try despite the presence of RATTLE as a diversion. Yellows were next, followed by greens. I hadn’t figured out what the purple group was all about before I submitted those words, but hey, I didn’t need to.

PS Continuing yesterday’s power pop theme, here’s Fountains of Wayne’s biggest hit. “Stacy’s Mom” is incredibly catchy. Adam Schlesinger sure knew how to write a perfect pop song.
