Happy Labor Day, puzzlers! It’s Day 3 of your three-day weekend, so make it count. (And by “make it count” we mean “kick back, relax, and do something fun.”) If you’re the grillmaster of the cookout, throw an extra pack of hot dogs on there as your salute to today’s epic showdown between Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi in Las Vegas.
But first, your daily sweet 16 words are back and ready for your best grouping efforts. The popular Connections brainbuster from The New York Times has four groups of words with a shared theme or commonality, but they’re shuffled into random order for you to figure out. Remember to take your time—many words have multiple meanings, so think twice before you click.
Today’s words: RECORD, STORE, WEIRD, REACTION, STAMP, STATION, LETTER, COMIC, FUNNY, MAIL, COIN, POST, OFF, POSITION, CURIOUS, and JOB.
