those were all wrong.
I'll be honest with you I'm familiar with the puzzle, my math teacher loved riddles like this.

I'm not on a trip, the puzzle is in the words themselves, not their meaning or their cause/effect.

...hurm. I can't see a consistent pattern. Damn relative concepts :wink:

OH WAIT A BRILLIANT BREAKTHROUGH. Tits but no women?
Not so subtle reference to Lotus' original post.

Haha! I loved this game! I used to confuse the crap out of my friends with it!

I haven't read the other posts, so these might be repeats.

There; are beers but no wines; eels but no fish; bills but no money; gills but no air; feet but no toes; beets but no potatoes; grills but no fuel; spleens but no pancreases; fools but no idiots; cool people but no lame people; llamas but no horses; cheese but no milk; puzzles but no answers :wink:

Shall I keep going?

Rapidly losing interest. Last try:

So, it's not based on predecessor - successor. Nor cause - effect. Nor object - component.

This had better not be one of those really lame ones where it's based on the number of letters or something.

Eh. Yeah I give up.

Nope.

It has to do with the spelling of the words. look at what the first word has, but the second hasn't.

if you don't get it after that, I'll explain.
