Fuckin' 3 yellows. I could literally feel my brain cramping, 20 minutes! This is my karma for celebrating.

I found an alternative to Wordlebot, no NYT paywall. Solvle.
After my 2/6 - 11 possible words.
After my 3/6 - 1 possible word. Figures, I just couldn't come up with it. :angry-banghead:

Your guess eliminated one of the two remaining words, but, despite being a valid guess, FOODY isn’t one of the words I think will be a solution based on what I’ve learned from playing Wordle. But you’ve narrowed it down to one possible solution. You should solve the puzzle on your next turn.

Why a dumb ass Wordle? dictionary.com says it's been a word in its own right since 1970–75.

I like that Wordlebot scolds you. I don't think that Solvle does that. Do you ever tell Wordlebot to fuck off?

I think FOODY is a fine guess.

Some of the Brits are really pissed off. Others say easy-peasy.
Dear Wordle, that isn’t a wordle.
Great minds . . .
It's listed in http://dictionary.com as a word. I had (what I think is) the same question after solving.
Me:



:wave:



:D

This was a clever strategy. I don't think I guessed FUDGE. I did try each of the others including the more obscure PUDGE before getting it correct.
