    "I remember when I had lymphoma and I looked up 'what is the lymphatic system' and *me* came up to explain it to me." Learning isn't perfect, and it isn't (or at least shouldn't) be expected to be! This is WHY we need information storage/communication devices like the Internet!

      Homophones drove me crazy. I saw I, U and B immediately but the Saw and Teapot emojis weren't loaded for me so I had to inspect elements then copy paste them into google just to see them and assumed the teapot was a kettle from the limited glance I gave it because I didn't want to google the exact name of the emoji (wasn't sure if it'd give me too much of a hint or not). Ended up giving up before remembering T does in fact have a homophone. This completely blinded me from the obvious rhyming words right in front of me

    I really liked the emoji game! The horror movies were actually the first thing I picked up on, and I would have never in a million years thought the food items were connected to money (like, now i can see "dough" and "bacon", but definitely not cheese or lettuce, though in fairness I'm not a native speaker).
    I was really confused about how the "sheep" fit in with the rest of the homophobes though, so at least that mystery has now been solved, "ewe" never even occurred to me. (To be honest I'm not even sure I could tell you which animal "ewe" was, or what a female sheep is called, though it'd probably be in the running both ways.)

We were staying at a friend’s house in Ireland, and pulled the DVD out of a bargain bin at a local shop, bringing it home without realizing what we had signed up for.

    They used the emoji set of your operating system, which means they couldnt depend on consistency of the emoji images

    I was only mad at this one because I had blank spaces instead of the Saw and Tea emojis and had no idea what to do. Didn't realize it was a bug.

  • @lindseyziegler9869

    For me, two of the emojis were blank and I thought that was how it was supposed to be. Made it very difficult.

    This Connections was absolutely wild and threw me for such a loop. I was thinking about the purple for so long cause I instantly recognized 3 of them but the fourth one I couldn't figure out at all, all because of "sheep".

    I saw the horror movies first, but was overthinking and almost lost. I was thinking "bee" was candyman, and the "lamb" was for silence of the lambs

    The only reason I was mad was that two of those emoji tiles never loaded in my Chrome, so I got two blank clues that broke yesterday's game for me. 🤷‍♂

  • @silverandexact
    @silverandexact 3 місяці тому +1

    This is so interesting! Usually Hank solves the Connections WAY faster than I do (I know the videos are edited down but I just stare at my phone thinking for 5-20 minutes at a time and often can't solve them all) but I solved all the categories within 10 minutes when they were emojis! My thought process was more on point than Hank's in this video, whereas normally I'm in awe of how quickly he sees the connections.

  • @mrpoparq
    @mrpoparq 3 місяці тому +1

    Yeah, I got caught up on eye, tea, saw, and bee all being 3 letters. I considered the homophones route but I couldn't think of ewe, otherwise the rest were pretty easy.

  • @karew4405
    @karew4405 3 місяці тому +1

    I did not do good on this puzzle because the emoji is "Teapot" but they were using it as "Tea" in one of their bullshit "these are how you could spell out letters" clues, which is a thing only NYT games players ever need to know.

    i felt super old because i didn't get ewe, but i also did not even get what the scream emoji was supposed to be. i was like what is even a word for that face. distress?

  • @tabularasa
    @tabularasa 3 місяці тому

    YES 😄 I was happy to see this posted! The comments on the Connections Companion yesterday were hilarious. Why do people get so worked up? It was a fun one! I actually got the homophones first (always say the words out loud), and I also thought sandwich rather than money. The others were easy. My favorite part of the Hank playing Connections videos are the random search breaks to learn about cheese facts and creepy sheep movies lol

  • @isabellafortune1705

  • @WhiteWizard42
    @WhiteWizard42 3 місяці тому +1

    This is a neat idea for a Connections, but I wish they could have set up categories that weren't based on English sound-alikes (letters / rhymes), since the advantage of emoji is that they're language-agnostic.

  • @joshuasims5421
