I was recently introduced to this type of puzzle, and they are quite a bit of fun, so I wanted to share the idea on this forum. A "Why Me Rhyme" is a pair of words or phrases wherein the second phrase is spelled exactly like the first, except for the first letter of each phrase. The caveat is that they cannot rhyme. Spaces and hyphens are permissible. Therefore, the name, "Why me Rhyme" is an example, wherein the "W" is exchanged for an "R," and a space is taken away.

To answer a Why Me Rhyme, you get one clue, and you must find an answer that fits the parameters defined above. For example:

"Desires trousers" yields "wants pants."

So what are the answers to the following clues?

1) The Knightly Element

2) Demonstrate incorrectness

3) Induces results

4) Ineffectual stringed instrument

5) Amazing aisle

Please note that the answers aren't always synonyms of the clues. Also, please come up with your own Why Me Rhymes and post them here or in a new thread!

I'm glad I made you try hard, because that's right!

You might want to re-read the OP. While your answers fit the clues, they don't fit the puzzle, because the words you chose have dissimilar spellings.

Ha! I finally got one right.

The puzzle asks that only the first letter is different for both words.

Oops. I just realized my answer won't work, the words can't rhyme... Guess I'll keep working on them then...

They can't rhyme...

[Guest]

What's a figurative way to demonstrate your own incorrectness. What about when you lose a bet?

[Guest]

give five??

like giving the guy who was right a high five? I'm really stretching here.

is display misplay considered rhyming? the accents are on different syllables.

[Guest]

I guess I'll give the answer...

eat hat. As in, "if you prove me wrong, I'll eat my hat!"
