My biggest roadblock is "Ooops! Empty CO2 cylinder!"

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I abhor lemon in cold water or tea--it tastes like dishwater. I don't really favor it in hot tea. I drink black, green, herbal teas, and I want a tiny bit of Actual Sugar--preferrably Demerara rough cubes. I grew up in the land of Sweet Tea, but no. Fortunately I've always lived where the tap water was reasonably palatable, and I like plain water, especially very cold. We use a Britta filter now and that's usually what I drink unless hot tea. If I want bubbles it's club soda. Coffee and single malt have been retired, and honestly I don't miss them. But that's just me.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Although the Spelling Bee hill I will die on is, always, that "yeet" should be included.
I had to go look. It seems "yeet" is a valid Scrabble word, so that is a point in its favor.
It is not in Wordnik (yet).
The OED has:
The only known use of the verb yeet is in the Middle English period (1150—1500).
and
This word is now obsolete. It is only recorded in the Middle English period (1150—1500).
