Wordle 684: A Strange Path to a Strange Word

Hey, it's May 4, so let's open with FORCE. Wow, looks like they are not Star Wars fans over at NYT Games because everything is gray. Taking a major faceplant like that leads me to guess SPLAT. At least this time I get a yellow box for the P.

Okay, I need to start taking today's puzzle a little bit more seriously. The only vowels left to me are U and I, and maybe Y. I don't know, I've got to try to get something here, so I go with PINKY. Yellow for the P and a green for the Y. AT this point, my instinct tells me GUPPY. That feels like a good guess. I could go with BUMPY instead, but GUPPY feels good because I can get the potential double P taken care of. GUPPY was correct, and my streak is up to 22. 

Not a lot to say about today's puzzle other than I have to give Tracy Bennett credit for using a word that only has U for the vowel. I would estimate U is the least used vowel, so kudos on that.
