In what seems to be happening at a much more frequent rate these days, a contestant on a recent game of Wheel of Fortune made us stop, hit rewind and then ask aloud, “How in the hell did you get on this show?” Seriously, it’s something that’s happening almost as often as Donald Trump says something racist.
Here’s what looks a like a game featuring contestants who have been married to each other since the Korean War, and it’s a “Toss Up” round where two-thirds of the letters have been revealed. Granted, it’s not like I know what in the hell a honeysuckle bush is or what one looks like, but that doesn’t mean I can just throw out every rule of grammar and spelling that has existed since the English language was invented and just come up with something that sounds extremely delicious yet quite unfeasible.
Case in point is Melinda’s guess of “popsicle bike.” Let’s see how that turned out:

“Popsicle bike.” Hahaha. She seriously guessed “popsicle bike.”
Now, Melinda and I grew up in different times, so who knows? Maybe in the ’50s, a popsicle bike was something you could find in your local drugstore. But I’d risk all 452 bucks in my savings account that it still wasn’t a “living thing,” and it’s definitely something my dad would have thrown away after he walked into the garage the next morning and found it infested with ants.
That is, of course, if it hadn’t already melted by then.
