WARNING: THERE ARE CONNECTIONS SPOILERS AHEAD! DO NOT READ FURTHER IF YOU DON’T WANT THE APRIL 1, 2024 NYT CONNECTIONS ANSWER SPOILED FOR YOU.
Ready?
OK.
Let me start by saying: I LOVE when NYT Connections goes weird and gives us all plurals or all three-letter words or whatever. So I was in the group who laughed and enjoyed the emoji-only offering on April 1, 2024, which as you know is April Fools’ Day (which is mostly the worst).
But not everyone was amused. X (formerly Twitter) was full of folks divided by this puzzle and shared their thoughts.
Here’s a sampling of what we saw on Monday:
