The Genie does say "and ixnay on the wishing for more wishes" after listing the three main rules.

It's like having a pissing and no pissing side in a pool.

Convicted felon, plus confirmed child molester and serial rapist.

So they're openly admitting to a coup attempt.

The more they pull this shit, the harder it is to not believe they're just the fascists' controlled opposition.

That's my favorite challenge bait tactic. If you challenge an opponent's word and you're wrong, you lose your turn, so if you want to be an asshole, play a word that exists as an obscure but valid word, but is much more well known as a proper name. Mike (alternate spelling of mic), Jenny (female donkey), Japan (a type of varnish), etc. They challenge, it's in the dictionary, you get to give the opponent a smug grin, and they probably won't want to play Scrabble with you anymore but you just got a major advantage.

If they get used to your tricks, just bullshit them with names that they "know better than to challenge now". It's entirely legal to intentionally play fake words, they're just vulnerable to being challenged.

Of course if you're playing against someone who's actually competitive at Scrabble they've probably dedicated time to studying challenge bait and would see right through you, it's a legit part of the game at a high level so they'd be prepared.

Ah, so a full bodied wine.

Even without the extra tile, EM is a word. It's the spelling of the letter M.

Edit: also the much more obvious AM.

Looks like that suit is made of two different fabrics. Time to stone him, wouldn't want to be a hypocrite.

Someone who was a tech journalist rather than a games journalist, and posted the attempts as a bit of self-deprecating humor. Of course capital-G Gamers think being bad at a game is a Serious Crime and nothing to joke about, so they responded as you would expect.

They could argue that. It would be a completely fucking asinine argument, but that doesn't stop them.

If a sentencing judge gives someone the death penalty they should be willing to put their own life on the line. If, after the fact, the person is exonerated, execute the judge.
