To celebrate #Wordle1000, here is my cartoon about Wordle addiction for the Guardian.

A man lies on a couch and talks to his psychiatrist. Her: So, if I understand correctly: you've become so obsessed with Wordle that you can only use five-letter words. Him: Quite right, sadly. Her: How long has this been going on? Him: About three weeks. Her: And does it affect your daily life? Him: Makes basic tasks quite tough Her: One answer would be to stop playing. Him: Never! Her: Or, try something with a larger vocabulary: Scrabble, crosswords? Him: Smart! Enjoy other games, learn extra words... heard worse ideas. Her: Come back and see me in two weeks. Him (leaving): Great. Adieu!
