Is it accurate to call a circle a loop? The circumference of a circle makes a loop, but a circle is everything inside, too. On edit: Apparently it is! I thought that pi r squared was the area of a circle, but according to Wikipedia it’s the area enclosed by a circle of radius r. TIL. (Or at least re-learned something I was taught oh so many years ago.)

Oscar the Grouch is a character from Sesame Street, an extremely popular long-running educational children’s show.
Oscar is the word for O in the phonetic alphabet (alpha, bravo, charlie, etc.)
“The Oscars” is the nickname for the Academy Awards. Not sure why. But by proxy, the physical award itself (the statuette) is “an Oscar”.
I had to Google to find out that Oscar is also the name of an American brand of balogna, which Americans pronounce as baloney.

I have always knew the spelling bologna in my area of the US, not sure why NYT has baloney. And the brand name is Oscar-Mayer so purple is just bad :(
Baloney is just a wrong way to spell it. Honestly kinda disappointed by whoever made todays game.
purple
I mean yeah I know oscar the grouch kinda.
I know the phonetic alphabet but just the letter really does not make me think of it.
If it was the other way around oscar for statuette I would see it make sense. This way it’s kinda far fetched.
I always saw it as bologna and baloney associated with bullshit.
So all in all this whole oscar was far fetched and a bad category if you ask me.

“o” was one of the first things I put in the “loop” category.
Crock, baloney, and bunk as “nonsense”.
I almost got the o in the loop one. I then realiser luckily that it does not belong.
