purple
blue

Made a mistake with yellows - twice! - which I'll blame on lack of sleep and literally forgetting the category as I was clicking on them.

Had absolutely no ideas on the last two. Just figured Subaru, NFL, and Paramount were more likely to be together, and then it was a 50/50 whether to guess NOAA or NASA with them, and I picked wrong.

<blues>
Did not get the blues. Wasn't sure what organization NOAA was supposed to be, until I saw the purples and that it wasn't an organization at all. The two wrong guesses was me trying to think of things that could be film festivals.

Immediately after my wrong guess, which was a huge stretch "___ Off", the purples clicked for me. Clip was the word that finally made me see it.

Despite linking mascara/stockings/dye together, it was not for the right reason, lol. Just lucky I picked the right one to swap around until I got it right.

Typically I hear it more as "getting a run" than "running", but a run in pantyhose is basically when the fabric gets snagged or damaged in a way that causes a long, noticeable line ("run") top to bottom. Super easy to do and basically ruins the appearance with no fix that I'm aware of other than buying new ones.

Saw 3 of the purples. Incorrectly guessed Sky Wing and Sky Flyer before Sky Lark (never heard of, but contextually it made sense)

I had yellows off the hop but I refused to believe they would be jerks and play the ram became its own brand mindgame. But it turns out they did. Goof was doing skewing instead of skylark which was a silly mistake because I grew up on fairly oddparents

Wtf, I thought Ram was a type of Dodge... Every now and then I'm reminded of why I shouldn't do these past midnight, and today it was me completely failing to register skyrocket. My first guess was dive/duck/dodge/dip. And aside from Wayne Gretsky, I don't think I can name a single other hockey player.

Fuck this one.

Fell for the dodgeball trap, then got the car brands, then error'd out trying different combinations of Sky_____ (because there were like 6 or 7 that I have heard)

They're actually teams, but since they used the word 'member' I can understand the confusion

Today's was messed up because the car brand thing doesn't work. There's a combination of makes and models in there.

It's like asking people to group together Nintendo, Sega, Sony and Mario

I saw the sky group early but hadn't heard of "sky rocket" and now I'm just realizing it's referring to "skyrocket". I'm not huge into cars so I didn't think too hard about the car grouping, which helped this time.

I thought purples were "words with s removed at start" and shive was just something I hadn't heard of.
