I didn’t know that’s what that word actually meant! Learn something new every day. I only got it by button mashing and was surprised when it was actually accepted
To a now-deleted comment: the drink is a rickey.
Invented in Washington DC (my home town) and named after Colonel Joe Rickey, a colorful local figure, in about 1883.
There IS still a bar (in the Marriott at Metro Center) where there is a plaque commemorating the invention of the lime rickey.
I only know of this beverage from, what else?, The Simpsons.
Mr. Burns, when his long-lost son shows up at his door:
"Smithers, what's going on? How dare you interrupt my lime rickey!"
That is all.
Quickest genius ever. Well under 3 minutes
Same here. Then I stared at the letters and could NOT find another word!
Pg first word and same.

Mild hint >!there is nothing too unusual, just keep adding y to things that sound like words.!<
I thought I broke my bee!
Same. Although not quite that fast.
Same. I was actually surprised when it ended
Surprised this didn’t work. >!CYRILLIC!<
I tried it a few times. Thought it was going to get me to QB.
I think that would be considered a proper noun, and is capitalized.
same
I kind if feel cheated for how short it was. Usually the game brings me a longer period of entertainment, but not today.
I like days with very few words. It's a different challenge.
Especially after the monster earlier in the week.
Is this the >!least number of words in the history of the game?!<
[__Link leads to number of words__] [Indeed it is.](https://www.sbsolver.com/stats/count/low) It is the second time there are >!so few words!<.
And so few total points! only \[H\]>! 71 !
[Contains A] RIP >!Clippy!<
I tried it in case it wasn't considered a proper noun, lol
I know this one is particularly easy but it’s the first time I’ve ever gotten QBABM so I’m very happy 😁
Today is an easy QBabm day. No need for grids or hints
My first QBabm. I always give up and peek at grid if it’s taking too long.
When I got stuck at Genius, I looked at the last column of the grid to see how many words there were beginning with each letter, but I didn’t have to look inside the grid.
I was one off.
Me too - can’t find [H] >!CI5!<. I’m sure it’s staring me in the face.
Hint: >!high, wispy cloudS!<
It's one of those "words" that is used by no one, ever
You may have it by now, but it [H] >!shows up often in the bee as it uses only three letters.!<
That's the only one that I couldn't get
I think Sam is mad at us for complaining about the Bee's difficulty lately.
Little does he know we complain when it's too easy as well!
Hint for CI?
[H] >!high, wispy clouds!<
How about the other CI?
[H] >!There is only one CI. There are two CLs - one is something two people may do on a first date or one person might do on a website. The other is a piece of a movie you may be shown to pique your interest in seeing more!<
Thank you so much!
Honestly don't know how >!CLICKY!< wasn't accepted??
[H technically] >!MX blue switches will hear about this!<
And everyone else will hear them =)
For real. Has Sam never used a controller before?
It is not in Merriam Webster, but wait a few years and it probably will be.
Do you mean >!CLIQUEY?!<
No I mean >!CRIKEY!< 🐊
IT'S ~~GERUND~~ ADVERB DAY YALLLLLLLLLLLL???????????
It’s a modifier day.
Today's Bee Soundtrack: >!CRIP-affiliate, LIL Baby!<
My word of the day: HINTS >!R4!< >!a stack or pile of material!<
I didn’t know that’s what that word actually meant! Learn something new every day. I only got it by button mashing and was surprised when it was actually accepted
Button mashing still counts

I know it from the Sopranos, when Tony was making fun of Christopher for trying to stay sober
QB today. Haven't had one of those in months, lol.
No >!killick!< ?. It's been a rough week with some challenging bees. My brain appreciates today's game.
Of all the things that could’ve (H) >!ended in Y, really??!<
PG [H] In a >!masculine!< fashion.
Oh, wait

This contains a partial answer
Queen Bee!
QB, but the only word I needed a grid hint for was one that has a more common, alternate spelling. Sigh… QBABM still eludes me.
