A game where the purpose is to figure out the rule of the game itself!
Deep But Not Profound is a word game where the fun is in figuring out the rule to the game! The game is started by someone giving examples of a pair of words that fit the rule of the game then it's your job to figure out why that pair of words works. Once you do, you give your own CORRECT examples. A little confused? Check out these examples:

Yellow but not a Color
Swimming but not a Sport

Now you're really confused. *Star* Hint: Look more at the words than the analogies...

Purple but not a Color is NOT correct
Rugby but not a Sport is also incorrect!

More correct examples are:
Tell but not spoken
Cheese but not mouse

Now go forth and come up with your own examples!!!

: I thought only Gettysburg didn't, but I'm still figuring this stuff out. *scratches head* How about; scratch but not itch, tall but not Shaq, story but not tale.
