I just thought of some new video ideas...
Burger Chef (a defunct burger chain that almost beat McDonald's)
Emperion (a relatively new UK startup that's supposedly working on a Windows-based smartphone called the "Emperion Nebulus")

Thanks Franklin!

First time opening up wordle today to see the NY times url, hopefully nothing else changes about the game🤷‍♂️

[@HowItHappened]

There’s a minor logo change too!

[@mayara8346]

I mean, the Wordle archive os already down cause NYT requested, I Hope they don't put a paywall behind the game

[@chriss4084]

So he stole the name and concept from an app thats already been around for 5 years and then the guy whose app was cloned decides to donate the few bucks he finally made off it while steve sells his version to nyt for a few million.
Yeah none of this adds up at all.

How can I play Wordle for free but without ads?

[@nicholashunt5230]

You should make a video on MoviePass. They quickly become massive a couple years ago and ended up bankrupt not long after, yet they're now making a return in 2022. 🤔

[@HowItHappened]

Thanks Nicholas! Company Man already made a great video about MoviePass which might be hard to live up to but we’ll try 😄

[@nicholashunt5230]

@@HowItHappened His video was uploaded long before the company made a resurgence. I actually had no clue he made a video about MoviePass. Besides, you shouldn't let anybody else prevent you from making a video on a certain subject. 🙂

[@HowItHappened]

Great point! Watch out for a MoviePass video coming to you soon!

Anybody ever got it in 1 guess?

[@srwang56]

I did.
Today it was the first time for me to get it in 1 guess and there's a reason why I picked that word today. But if I explained the reason, maybe it's a spoiler.
