Green crapped out - just got a sick face instead of a word for the category!

Also, yellow was kind of BS

It’s not the sick face. Take a screen shot and blow it up.

It's funny the times one person can see it so clearly, and another is completely lost.

Most retarded puzzle in a long time.  Enough with the crappy words that barely fit multiple categories

This was rough.  Happy I made it.  Purple by default (and stupid).
