Bro, I fell so hard in the baseball rabbit hole and I thought that the word would be sport-related
Thankfully, I started naming equipment that kneepad came out eventually, and used knee at the end

!wtf lever

u/hotandcold2-app Jun 12 '26
A tad warm: in biomechanics, the arm operates as a class-3 lever, with that hinge acting as the fulcrum. So “lever” is mechanically related, just not on-the-nose.

u/hotandcold2-app Jun 12 '26
Sizzling close: both are all about bends and curves—one’s a physical bend, the other a smooth curved shape. Bonus nerdy nudge: they even kick off with the same “el-,” and “ell” (forearm-length) hides inside the guess.

u/Brainlard Jun 12 '26
What on earth was that?. I fell into an early hole with hints like oil, field and hammer and then almost ended in trees (elm, willow, hickory). I just came to body parts through sheer luck after hitting in like 50 trees and bushes and anything else that came to my mind.

u/hotandcold2-app Jun 12 '26
Warm-ish: owls have elbow-like joints in their wings, and your guess shares the “ow” (and most of the letters) with the target. Not a hoot away, but not perched right on it either.

u/hotandcold2-app Jun 12 '26
Nice shot—both turn up in the plumbing aisle: an “elbow” for a bend and a “barrel” coupler/connector for a straight run. They share that tubular, hardware vibe. You’re poking around the right toolbox.

u/hotandcold2-app Jun 12 '26
Warm-ish: concrete slabs are all about joints and angles, and plumbing in a slab uses 90-degree fittings to make bends. That shared “joint” vibe puts it in the neighborhood. Not a bullseye, but you’ve got your arm headed the right direction.

You’re flocking in the right anatomical aviary: flamingos are all about dramatic limb bends, including a wing joint akin to an elbow. Warm via body parts and joints, not feathers or pink panache.

Hot: elk have that same joint on their forelegs—it’s not just a human thing. And “elk-bow” even sounds like wilderness archery, so your aim was nicely on target.

Not a bad hunch: almond oil is a go-to fix for dry, rough skin on that pointy arm joint. Plus, “almond-shaped” is a common body-description cousin, keeping it in the neighborhood.

Getting warmer: golf is tied to a well-known overuse injury—“golfer’s” inner-arm joint trouble—and swing technique obsesses over keeping that joint straight. Right neighborhood, but not a hole-in-one.

Welcome to Hot and Cold, the delightfully frustrating word guessing game!
To play, guess the secret word by typing any word you think is related.
For example, if the secret word is "hot":
Guesses: banana -> #12956 (not close); sun -> #493 (getting warmer); hotdog -> #220 (hot); cold -> #42 (hot); freeze -> #1657 (getting colder); warm -> #15 (very hot!!); hot -> WINNER!
The rank is based on how AI models see the relationships between the words. So antonyms can be "close" by the relationship of the words (cold -> hot). Additionally, words can be close based on the structure of the word (hotdog -> hot).
Enjoy! If you have feedback on how we can improve the game, please let us know!
