Same old seat of the pants approach. I just try to eliminate as many letters as possible. It seems to depend a lot on luck a lot of the time.

That picture I post in my spoiler is just a screenshot. On my Linux: Ctrl+/Alt+Print Screen, Window is very similar. I just click the picture button in the forum GUI and it takes me directly to the just created image in the file system.

You may have other reasons for not showing your process , and if so I respect them. If it's just a matter of computer obscurity though, it's close to that.

With one letter different? They sounded exactly the same. None had a "negative" definition. One had a less-occurring letter that was tempting, but the other seemed a more popular word. In the end, a flip of a coin seemed just as good.

Ah, so now we have switched tactics 😂

The solution just screamed ”Pick me! Pick me!” for me. The other seemed rather bland and uninteresting.
