Today’s Wordle answer July 17

Today’s Wordle answer is:WACKY.

In theory, “wacky” is just another word for eccentric, like “zany” or “quirky”, but it doesn’t feel right to apply it to much other than classic cartoons these days. The Animaniacs are wacky, as are the Wacky Races (naturally); but if you tell me a modern sitcom is wacky that’s my cue not to tune in. And now I’ve been thinking about this for so long that the word “wacky” has started to sound… well… wacky to me. While you’re pondering on that, be sure not to share your newfound knowledge of today’s Wordle answer until tomorrow, when it’s safely out of spoiler territory.
