Here's a challenge: find something to subtract from "hammer" which does not result in a word that has "gun" as a substring. I've been unsuccessful so far.

- neom 1y agoif I'm allowed only 1 something, I can't find anything either, if I'm allowed a few somethings, "hammer - wine - beer - red - child" will get you there. Guessing given that a gun has a hammer and is also a tool, it's too heavily linked in the small dataset.
- tough 1y agohammer + man = adult male body (75%)
- rdlw 1y agoClose, that's addition
- Retr0id 1y agoWell that's easy, subtract "gun" :P
- mrastro 1y agoThe word "gun" itself seems to work. Package this as a game and you've got a pretty fun game on your hands :)
- __MatrixMan__ 1y agoDoh why didn't I think of that
- downboots 1y agoBullet
- aniviacat 1y agoGun related stuff works: bullet, holster, barrel Other stuff that works: key, door, lock, smooth Some words that result in "flintlock": violence, anger, swing, hit, impact
- soxfox42 1y agohammer - red = lock
- ttctciyf 1y agohammer - keyboard = hammerhead Makes no sense, admittedly! - dulcimer and - zither are both in firmly in .*gun.* territory it seems..
