hey guys, if you're drawing any conclusions (like "it's not number of vowels"), post your thoughts-- it'll save us from wasting our guesses testing the same hypothesis.

Discussion is allowed, but only about what DOES NOT meet the criteria. If you think you've figured it out, you should show that by MAKING 5 CORRECT GUESSES IN A ROW.

I think the most interesting clue is that bottle openers are yes, but bottle openers for wine bottles are no. If we can figure out the difference between these two things, we'll have it.

ETA: I'm curious to see if bottles makes it in!

[Cuddlefish]

There are yellow crystals, but no yellow jewels.

There are cars, trucks and bikes, but no vehicles with wheels.

There is a pie with apples, but no pastry or orchard fruit.
