Because "Russet Brown" Isn't a Five-Letter Word, That's Why


We were so surprised when we stumbled upon this halfway through our ninth cup of coffee one morning this weekend, we nearly tumbled head first into our shag carpeted conversation pit! Apparently someone on the Failing New York Times' "puzzles staff," which is apparently a real thing and may employ more editors than write headlines for, you know, boring stuff, is familiar with the questionable color palette of our plastic fantastic planned community; no notes, the end.

    Alert Wordle players from Reston should also be on the lookout for other DRB-appropriate five-letter words such as "beige", "cream", and "taupe", none of which have yet appeared as answers.. Too bad "ecru" is only four letters.
