Connections teased us with two teletubbies, and if I hadn’t known that the missing characters were Tinky-Winky and Po, I could have been tempted to connect a quartet with boo-boo and flub, both of which sound like they could be rotten primary colored aliens.
Instead, I remembered that a first -class feature of the Teletubby species was the curly antenna on top of their bulbous heads, something they have in common with insect, radio tower and dish.
I am glad that I had this useless knowledge as I would never have composed _____ doodle, after never hearing the expression dipsy doodle or having something to mix about what a cheese doodle could be; This particular series of cheese puff is not available in England where WOTSIT controls Supreme.

What are new connections?
New Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four objects that share something in common, and each group has another level of difficulty: green is light, yellow a little harder, blue often quite hard and purple usually very difficult.
On the plus side, you do not have to technically solve the last one, as you can answer one by an elimination process. In addition, you can make up to four errors, giving you a little bit of breathing room.
However, it is a little more involved than something like Wordle, and there are plenty of opportunities for the game to get up with tricks. For example, be careful on gay and other word games that can hide the answers.
It can be played free of charge via the new Games website on desktop or mobile.
