Abilities

I’m late at Wordle. I am the typical person who first laughs at trends, avoids and disdains them, and then embraces them without restraint and at the wrong time when others start to tire of them. That is why I have arrived late to Wordle in the same way that I arrived late to plaid shirts, Converse sneakers, podcasts, covid, torreznos, trap and mobile phones.

In this case I have arrived late at Wordle, but at least I have arrived with everything, as a good central defender on the court, that is undeniable. Now the first thing I do every day when I wake up is play Wordle. And that’s not the worst. The real problem is that I am very good at Wordle: I solve all the words and I have almost three consecutive weeks without failing. So much so that I have never lost, nor will I lose, and if I think about it a little, it was to be expected. It makes all the sense, all the logic: I am great at Wordle because it is the typical thing that nobody cares about and that is useless. The typical useless matter that I’m great at, the typical irrelevant feat for which I’m trained as standard.

I’m sure I was late to the distribution of skills too. Not knowing how to do anything must be a disgrace, but being great at things that are useless is a giant calamity. To summarize, I will say that if you were all like me, humanity would have been extinct a long time ago. Mine is undoubtedly unfortunate, -the master of the Wordle, the king of the five letters-, but there are even worse people, and that always encourages.

absurd abilities

As children, we were once on the football pitch, so calm, and a friend showed up with his uncle. Our friend told us ‘look what my uncle can do’, and the uncle put the ball on his head, as if it were a seal, and crossed the entire pitch without dropping it on the ground. The rest of us look at each other like what the hell is this and why have you brought your uncle to us, we don’t like news or surprises here, and then we play some random party. The guy signed up to play and what had to happen happened. The second time he began to do the seal he landed a just and logical flying kick to the head, in a legal struggle for the ball. We will agree that much worse than not knowing how to play soccer is to make the seal with the ball. The typical thing that nobody cares about and that is useless.

Lately you don’t see so many footballers displaying absurd skills and making little touches with the ball when they present the signings. And if they do, I don’t know, which comes to the same thing for my mind. I am quite in favor of that, because that way we avoid massive deception in children’s hours: thinking that football is playing touches is the same as thinking that literature is playing Wordle. Touches are not going to save you when you are playing the season. The best of my teams have never been the ones to do that bullshit. The best of my teams saw that and were suspicious. In the 70th minute of the key game of the year, you really know who the best are, and that’s where the presentations are far away -and the smiles, the poses and the touches-.
