Put two into the hint bucket before I spotted the first correct one. After that, it was easy.

Started doing today's. Used a hint. the result was only three highlighted letters, which could not be made into a word. "Fuck this for a game of soldiers", I thought, and gave up.

Looked at the clue today - "Pixar this" - not bothering.

I've got six of the seven words, but cannot make anything of the remaining letters, at bottom right.

Accidentally sent a word that was almost appropriate to the bucket. Otherwise very easy.
