[Zxor]

Ok I fely like making a riddle Topic, I think they are awesome.


Ok the first one.



Two cents equal 55 cents,

One of them is not a nickel,

What are the two cents?

[gsninja]

It took me a couple of minutes, but I think I got it:

A nickel and a half dollar. It says that one coin was not a nickel, so the other one was a nickel!

[Silo STATIC]

Eh, I don't think this belongs here, so I'll send it to the Off-Topic forum. Another moderator will pick it up if it's been placed in the wrong forum.

Oh, and by the way, I'm not really good with riddles ... so I won't try. :joy:;;;

||MOVED||

[Mallick]

That is an immpossible riddle. two cents is cannot be fifty cents.

[Echo_djinn]

No he means "cents" like pnnies and nickels and quarters and stuff. Thats the point of the riddle mind games.

[Linear]

Mind games can be confusing if you dont get it at all. :D

[Echo_djinn]

Very I hate the pictures that tell you which person is closer and the two pictures in one portrait.(you may see and old lady but I see a young man instead)

[Linear]

Yeah, I know that. One time when I was in 7th grade, my science teacher began lifting pictures up. Picture of a old man, and someway she said it was a lady. The nose. I dont see it....I see a girl, but not good. :D

[Echo_djinn]

Hate those pictures. I also hate spiral pictures, they give me a head ache.

[Linear]

Those pictures can be so annoying. Not knowing what they are, just thinking it's nothing but a blob.

[gsninja]

Yup. I think the same thing too...

[Echo_djinn]

Ok heres I riddle Whats cold in the inside but warm on the outside.

[Dullahan]

me!

what gets wetter as it dries?

[Ravenblade]

um maybe a towel? thats a tricky one 0.o

I got one too - a house has four south facing walls - a bear walks past - what colour is the bear? (its easy but its the only one i know)

[Zxor]

The answer is white.

For the riddle I said, I meant , what two coins.

Here's another one.

It has no locks,,
No keys,,
No cracks,,
No lid,,
And has golden treasure inside,,

What is it??

[Mallick]

Dunno, I have a ton of riddles, but they only work if you hear them verbally.

[Zxor]

Yeah, I know, but anyone know mine yet?



It has no locks,,
No keys,,
No cracks,,

What is it??

[Mallick]

I have no clue.

Gimme a hint. :)

[Zxor]

You can eat it.

[Kikuichimonji]

an egg?

my lame answers

[Zxor]

lame answers are correct, GOOD JOB, the yok yoke....however it is spelled, the yellow thing, can produce life, that is why it is treasure.

[Mallick]

Good one.

(This is supposed to be asked verbally, otherwise it's easy)

A rooster lays an egg on a roof, the wind is blowing east. What way does the egg roll?

[Zxor]

Roosters dont lay eggs, a classic.

[Linear]

O.O What about that toung twister (sorta) "How much wood would a wood chuck chuck would a wood chuck wood chuck wood?"

I said before "ANSWER THE QUESTION!"

Then people said "26!"

I'm amazed they actually answered. O O;; A bit...yeah.

[Echo_djinn]

Riddles are ok I guess they help the mind grow but it can get fustrating when you try an answer them.

[Zxor]

I thought it was, how much wood could a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck would

[Linear]

another one: you a trapped in a circuler room with no doors no windows the roof is too far away to reach and the floor is made of steel, all you have is a table and a saw, how do you get out? (really lame answer)

[Zxor]

You cut the hole in the room????

[el_Sethro]

you are lost in the woods, when you come across a small hut. inside is a woodstove (w/ wood), a kerosine lamp (fully fueled) and a candle. you have one match. which do you light first?

[Zxor]

This one is good, the match

[Arkarian]

I have three please answer, if you can.
First'n:
I can run but can't walk,
Have a mouth but can't talk,
Have a bed but do not sleep,
Have a head yet do not weep,
what am I?

Second'n: (a classic)
As I was walking to St. Ives, I met a man with seven wives,
Each wife had seven sacks,
Each sack had seven cats,
Each cat had seven kittens,
Kittens, cats, sacks, wives; how many where going to St. Ives?

Third'n:
What is the shore that fears the sea?

[Echo_djinn]

OK i have no clue what the first 2 riddles are but Iam guessing that the thrid riddle is a beach?(I jhave no clue why I gave that answer)

either 2403 (7 wives x 7 sacs x 7 cats x 7 kittens + the man himself + the narrator himself), or two (The narrator and the man), as the question didn't speciffically say that the man was taking all of those things with him, or one (just the narrator), because the question didn't speciffically say that the man he met was going to St. Ives.

[kate]

for the second, one. it's "as I was walking to St. Ives" and along the way that one person met the man with the wives and such, but he wasn't going to St. Ives, this person just met him along the way. so one person is going to St. Ives (watch me be wrong ^_^ )

[Ravenblade]

they're all really hard...i have no idea im afraid...look forward to knowing what though...

and yes kate that may very well be it...but it still doesnt definately state where the other guy with the wives is going...but its better logic then anything that i can come up with

[Mallick]

Zxor, you just revived a topic with a post that is spam. How stupid.

-Reported-

Anyways.

RB said:

No, Zxor just spelt it wrong, I believe it is spelt "burried".

That was a stupid riddle, by the way.

[Venus dude 21]

I have 3 good ones.

It cannot be seen, cannot be felt
cannot be heard, cannot be smelt,
It lies behind stars and under hill.
And empty holes it fills.
It comes first follows after
Ends life, kills laughter.

Alive without breath,
As cold as death,
never thirsty, everdrinking
All in mail, never clinking

This thing all things devours
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers,
Gnaws Iron, bites steel,
Grinds hard stones to meal.
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down. Good Luck!

i am stuck in a circular room with 1million foot high brickwalls and 1million feet of steel under me. all i have is a table and a saw, how do i get out?

There has allready been that riddle, watch. Anyhow, you cut a hole in the wall.

Edited: Wait! No!! the walls are brick and this isnt a dupe riddle. But you said how do you get out, but in your answer, you clearly said that you cut the table and put it together to make a whole and that has nothing to do with getting out.So your riddle doesnt make sense

anyways the answer is: saw the table in half and put it back together again to make a whole

Heres one:
If a lion a goat and a yam are all wanting to get across a river, and the goat eats the yam if the two are left alone, and the lion eats the goat if the two are left alone, how can you bring them all across safely.
NOTES:
They don't eat each other if they are all together.
There is only one boat.
You can only put 2 on the boat.
If two predators are left on the boat they WILL eat eachother.
HINT:
You can take them back and forth as long as they all get across.

Don't say its wierd my grandpa made it up.:(

THINK!!! FOOLS THINK!!!!

[Ivan is my name]

I love this one!!!
First you take the Yam across
The nyou take the Goat across, but bring back the goat
Then you take the lion across and come back for the goat. Simple!!
Is it right?!?!?!?!?!

[Manning sucks]

but was the point of bringing the goat there and back. Ivan is my name, the lion would eat the goat when you take the yam over so think your wrong.

since the lion doesn't eat the yam you send them over first. then you send the goat over.

A will come around the house because B called him

Here is an old one:

[l3lueMage]

hey :agitated:

Answer(1): You ask a a door - "If I were to ask the other door which door leads to the city of truth, what would he say". And then you pick the opposite door of what he tells you.
Answer(2): Ask the door - "If I asked you which door leads to the city of truth before, which door would you have told me?" (negative and negative = positive, positive and positive = positive). and you choose the door that it directs you to.

There is a man walking but there is someone who keeps following him wherever he is outside, but when he goes inside he is for the most part safe, until he turns on a light, who is following him?

but was the point of bringing the goat there and back. Ivan is my name, the lion would eat the goat when you take the yam over so think your wrong.

since the lion doesn't eat the yam you send them over first. then you send the goat over.

a guy has 7 kids, half are boys

How is this possible??

[Ravenblade]

one of them is a goat?

x.x;; thats a stupid answer really..

alternatively it could include the guy making the overall tally 8 thus allowing it to be divisible by 4. I hate Math.

[Manning sucks]

the answer is obious but stuoid you almost had it so i will give it to you. ALL of the kids are boys making half of the Boys. Its stupid but hard.

I have to come up with another.

You ask who is not not telling the truth?
OR
You ask who does not not know who tells the lies?
OR
You ask who doen't not tell the truth?
OR
Take a guess and ask one do you lie and ask the other the same question. The answers should be converted.

He can't drop any of the melons, he has to get all of them over the bridge, in ONE trip without leaving anything behind.

Keep guessing.

[Ivan is my name]

He eats one?
he rolls them across?
Oh i know, it's a pun!!
He trips over?

[My Best Wishes]

No, he has to get to the other side with all three melons in one trip.

[Ivan is my name]

Uummmm......He doesnt go over the bridge? He goes home another way?

[My Best Wishes]

Ok Ok Ok

He HAS to cross the bridge, He MUST do it in ONE trip with ALL the Melons.

[Ivan is my name]

I've heard it before, but I cant remember the answer!! Tell me!!

[My Best Wishes]

I've decided to post the answer since Ivan has been bugging me for the last twenty minutes with totally illogical answers, The answer is, He juggles them across, so one of them is always in the air never exceding the 10kg supports.

A new one now: Janice was the best at her job, but one day she walked though the door and forgot to count, ten seconds later she's dead.

What did Janice do for a living?

[Ivan is my name]

She is a bank robber?

[My Best Wishes]

No, her job is not anything illegal or anything like that.

[Zxor]

mathematition????

Give us a hint!!

[Ivan is my name]

A bomb technition? A window cleaner?

[cyberRoll]

I agree with the last tow ones IIMN posyed but then again she could be a railroad worker!

[Ravenblade]

An Astronaut >.o;;

like she missed the countdown or something...gaah thats hard x.x;;

[l3lueMage]

Hmmm, she worked at high security place, has to count to 10 to make sure security clearence goes through but she forgot, and every secruty lazer killed her ?

[Isaac13]

That one mekes sense.
but she could be an engineer working with a big press and she forgot it stopped working ofter the ten count?
gah i don't know.

Yes, Raven you have gussed correctly, she jumped out of a plane and forgot to count when to pull her parachute. So she pummlted to her death.

I have no more riddles.

[Ravenblade]

wow that was a good one though! Im no good at riddles, nor have any to contribute really. I enjoy them though as they are a good test of the mind.

[gsninja]

Yeah, riddles can be mind-boggling, but they're fun. Some of them require lots of thought.

[Ivan is my name]

Ok, why dont you post any then? You have to hand it to him, Watch's riddles were good

[My Best Wishes]

lol i try, but i'm all out. I'll look for some, or try to remember, anyone else have any?

Ok i have two more. But i'll post one for now.

A person is murded. There is one witness and they go to court. The witness testifys that the person is guilty, and the person admits to comitting murder. But becuase of the witness the person can't go to jail.

What is special about the witness that allows someone to walk free from murder?

The above statement is false

which one is true?

Um, that was a biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig revive, but to stay on topic;

none of them are true OR false, are they? It's very mind-messing, so I might not be right

They both counter each other so I'm either gonna go with there is no answer or the bottom statement.

[golden_djiin]

yeah,its niether.heres one:
there is a farmer and his son,and they need to carry 5 sacks to a barn.the farmer carries 3 sacks of flour,so how many sacks of flour did the son carry?
((this is actuelly tougher then you might think it.and no,the anwser isn't 2.))

[Nobody]

I've no idea if this is right, but is the answer "none"? If you want me to, I'll tell you how I came up with that.

[golden_djiin]

yes indeed,it is none.
the farmer carried 3 sacks of flour,but who says all 5 sacks had flour in them?for all we know,the son carried 2 EMPTY sacks.

[Nobody]

That was very similar to what I was thinking...
What is grey, has a trunk, and small?

[Manning sucks]

A gray car

[TobiasMar]

Errr....well...I think his riddle is trying to trick you into saying a gray car...so I say a baby elephant.

I'm gonna have to agree with you that it is a baby elepant.

[Nobody]

Every one of you got it wrong. I said small, otherwise you could've been right.
The answer is: A mouse on vacation. (don't ask me where it came from; I know it's lame. :angry:)

[My Best Wishes]

*SIGH* that is LAME.

I got another tricky one.

A person is murded. There is one witness and they go to court. The witness testifys that the person is guilty, and the person admits to comitting murder. But becuase of the witness the person can't go to jail.

What is special about the witness that allows someone to walk free from murder?

[Venus_Man1]

The witness was the victim?

[Yokutai]

He can't go to jail because the murderer is also the murder victim; I know this because they just use the word person throughout the story. This would only make sense if we know who this person is and thats the victim. The person killed himself and there was a witness who saw him do so, and because of that testimony the person (murderer) goes free because he is dead.

[Nobody]

Is the witness the jury?

[My Best Wishes]

Uh no not quite.

Remember the Murder tesetifed guitly. And the witness comfirmed. So they can't be dead. Think about the witness.

[Kubjelle]

Caus the witness is a priest?
I've got no idea..

[Venus_Man1]

I have one that makes no sense IMO.

A egypt, rich, father died. He had two sons.
They were going to race around the pyramid with camels.
The one who came in SECOND place wins
the fathers treasures and such.
So they sat by the pyramid with their camels all day,
but then a old man came by and whispered something in their ears.
And then the two sons starts racing around the pyramid.

What did the old man say?

[Kewne]

Wasn't it the camel who came second who won, Venus man? I've heard it that way before. If so, the old man said that they should switch camels.

[Nobody]

The old man must've told them the one who gets first place will win. That's the only logical conclusion I can come up with...

The only other logical explanation would be that the witness is also the murderer and since the 5th amendment doesn't allow the accused to testify against themselves. He goes free because there is no other witnesses.

[Omega]

I have yet another one.

If a hen and a half can lay an egg and a half in a day and a half, at this rate how many eggs can be laid by two dozen hens in two dozen days?

Hehe try to figure THAT one out...

Since we have so many at once now i'll just put the answer:

The murder and witness were simense twins, so they couldn't go to jail becuase then the witness who was innoccent would be punished for nothing.

:agitated: I think that riddle has one to many answers don't you think?

Gohan Duo - Is it 25 days?

[GohanDuo]

Nope it was 49, Nobody was right.
When the plant is halfway the moon it needs to grow 1 day
before it reaches the moon. (half of the lenght x 2 = the whole lenght ^^)

What is dangerous, cone-shaped (usually), and spits out fire and ash?

[Venus_Man1]

A Volcano. No, that's too easy. Meh, Volcano is my answer.

I would think that riddle is kinda easy, but tries to make you be so general as to say "volcano", so I'll be specific. Erupting volcano.
(that was EASY)

[GohanDuo]

ehm yeah I would say Volcano to.
Mine was 'is' btw ^^

That's almost exactly the riddle I was gonna post before I saw that....
The answer is: It is an electric train. There is no smoke.

[l3lueMage]

good good, okay here is one:

It's more powerful than God.
It's more evil than the devil.
The poor have it.
The rich need it.
If you eat it, you'll die.
What am I?

[Zxor]

That one is sort of easy, (well I have heard it), nothing is the answer.

[Nobody]

I was thinking the same thing as Zxor. "It (nothing) is more powerful than God" is what made me think that, and it makes sense for the other phrases. The riddle just tried to trick you into thinking of something else by suggesting that the answer was something we didn't think about.
Darn, that reminds me of my username. Oh well.

[Manning sucks]

I am think more of money because the rich need and it is all of the discriptions.
