    Nice one - I love BANANAGRAMS!
    • Aaron constructor · 2022-04-14T16:34:19.074Z
      Thanks for solving, Mike!

      Great theme and great puzzle! I’ve played a bit of this game in the past at family game nights, but I couldn’t remember the third, not-so-relatable-to-bananas phrase used in the game. It ended up making a nice aha moment once it clicked!
      • Aaron constructor · 2022-04-14T16:33:48.334Z
        Thanks for solving! Agree, shouting DUMP always feels out of place when I play Bananagrams when everything else is banana themed!
        • Philip Chow 🤓4:34 · 2022-04-14T16:52:16.185Z
          ohhhhh i never played bananagrams so i didn't know what DUMP was referring to... I googled "banana dump" and thought it was referring to a banana dump cake :P - i should have read the bananagrams clue more carefully for the connection - fun puzzle thanks

              This was fun!

                Supercool! My family won't play Bananagrams with me anymore, so this puzzle hit the spot!
                • M Forest 🤓5:43 · 2022-04-14T21:49:38.981Z
                  Bananagrams is such a fun game! Nice job incorporating all that lingo into this grid.

                    Access violations (23D) and USENET, those take me back!
