Deep but not profound

[Lookingforsomedirection]

The game is "deep but not profound" and, if you want to play take a turn and try to figure out the rule. When you figure out the rule please dont spoil it!

Dip but not hide

I haven't got a clue about what's going on!

You but not h(eff)er

Poo but not shit?

Poor but not impoverished?

@Lookingforsomedirection come back and tell us if we are on the right track…

Tool but not implement

If I’ve worked it out right from the 3 OP has given/confirmed, you were correct with “beef but not chicken”.

Greek but not Roman

I give up if that is the answer. I clearly have no clue as to what is going on.

Mushrooms but not truffles

How?

From sheep and cow?

Oh nevermind!

or should it be mushrooms and truffles but not fungi?

Sooner but not later

Nevermind his dicky heart , just fear his hearty dick

This is so annoying as we all are thinking the same rule it would seem, but with absolutely no guidance from OP.

Marks and Spencer but not Fortnum and Mason

I don’t think you have it.

FFS I just lost 'The Game'.

Thanks

High but not stoned

Apple not pear

Cold but not frigid

Wool and cotton but not silk.

Loofah but not sponge

Chilly but not cold

Cool not cold
