| I noticed that many of them have anagrams: enemy, ?, below, extra, center, who, pale/peal, ?, way, ?, hurt, never, ?, thread, okay, ?, miles/slime, backwards, ?, ?, no, cool, ?, face, sever/serve, spoon, ?, space, ?, remits, ?, lobsters, over, ruby, ... love. Not sure what that might mean, though. |

Question marks could be: robust nested various blue hula medical agnostic freak weird reality suitcase. Not sure why vole [love] has an ordered place there. _________________

rm has them mostly right, it's pale rather than peal, hatred rather than thread, smile rather than miles or slime, sever rather than serve, and mister rather than remits.
bonanova filled in all the ?s.
The order is something you either know or don't, but Googling will make readily apparent. I don't think it's possible to reason it out. |
