Riddle Me This/Riddle Me That

[MuGen]

Riddle me this, riddle me that... this thread is for posting riddles, and not for your cat.

Answer me this, GT members:

"It opens doors, but it cannot make a fist"

What is it?

Answer me this, GT members:

"A woman has 7 children, half of them are boys...How is this possible?"

Answer me this, GT members:

"A farmer and his hired help gather grain one day. The farmer is carrying one sack of gain and the hired help is carrying 2 sacks. Who is carrying the heavier load?"

Answer me this, GT members:

" A boy was at a carnival and went to a booth where a man said to the boy, "If I write your exact weight on this piece of paper then you have to give me $50, but if I cannot, I will pay you $50."

The boy looked around and saw no scale so he agrees, thinking no matter what the carny writes he'll just say he weighs more or less.

In the end the boy ended up paying the man $50. How did the man win the bet?"

" The word CANDY can be spelled using just 2 letters. Can you figure out how?"

"A man was born in 1955. He's alive and well today at age 33. How is this possible?"

FOUR is HALF of FIVE.
Is this statement True or False?

I soar without wings, I see without eyes.
I've traveled the universe to and fro.
I've conquered the world, yet I've never been anywhere but home.
Who am I?

[Dark Samurai]

An oppertunity?

I have no riddles as of yet, so i'll just leave like a...jet?

[Stray_Bullet]

"It opens doors, but it cannot make a fist"

What is it?


doorknob, crowbar, battering ram, axe, dynamite, key...

sledge hammer, security panel, motion (if automatic door)...

The will of mankind and the persistance of such good will! (if a door to the future)

But I like doorknob.

"A woman has 7 children, half of them are boys...How is this possible?"

"Them" includes the woman. She has four male children.

"A farmer and his hired help gather grain one day. The farmer is carrying one sack of gain and the hired help is carrying 2 sacks. Who is carrying the heavier load?"

I assume the hired help is carrying two sacks rather than two sacks of grain... and I also assume that a sack of grain weighs more than two empty sacks. So, the farmer carries a heavier load.

" A boy was at a carnival and went to a booth where a man said to the boy, "If I write your exact weight on this piece of paper then you have to give me $50, but if I cannot, I will pay you $50."

The boy looked around and saw no scale so he agrees, thinking no matter what the carny writes he'll just say he weighs more or less.

In the end the boy ended up paying the man $50. How did the man win the bet?"

The carny wrote a weight (i.e. 120 lbs) and the boy must have exlaimed "O! My weight is not that of 120 lbs. I weigh but only 115!" When the carny, as trickey as he may be, wrote "115" on his paper, having not explained that he could write the weight before or after the kid revealed the value, but that he had to write it on the paper at all.


"A man was born in 1955. He's alive and well today at age 33. How is this possible?"

Assuming today is not 1988? What if 1955 was a town, or a hospital? Suppose Age 33 was also a location.

[MuGen]

simple enough, but incorrect. You need to make a fist to use the doorknob. You or it cannot make a fist, but it still opens doors.

[Happydude]

Answer me this, GT members:

"A farmer and his hired help gather grain one day. The farmer is carrying one sack of gain and the hired help is carrying 2 sacks. Who is carrying the heavier load?"



depends on how much grain is in each sack.


Answer me this, GT members:

" A boy was at a carnival and went to a booth where a man said to the boy, "If I write your exact weight on this piece of paper then you have to give me $50, but if I cannot, I will pay you $50."

The boy looked around and saw no scale so he agrees, thinking no matter what the carny writes he'll just say he weighs more or less.

In the end the boy ended up paying the man $50. How did the man win the bet?"

the man wrote "your exact weight" on the peice of paper.

[Vampyr]

simple enough, but incorrect. You need to make a fist to use the doorknob. You or it cannot make a fist, but it still opens doors.

Are you saying all of his answers are incorrect, or just the doorknob?

And you don't technically make a fest to open a doorknob. I could do it with two fingers, or use both hands or my foot.

[ulala06]

the government could kill off every one of this animal, and yet it would continue to be reproduced... what is it?

the government could kill off every one of this animal, and yet it would continue to be reproduced... what is it?

"Brothers and sisters, I have none. But this man's father is my father's son."

"A man is walking and comes to a fork in the road. He's heard a tale that one path leads to a city of truth, in which no man can lie. The other path, of course, leads to a city of farce, in which no man can speak the truth. At the fork of the road, however, is a man from one of the cities. Being foreign to the area, the traveller cannot identify whether the man was from the city of truth or farce, so he had to ask a question. He doesn't have much time, unfortunately, so he can only ask one question. Which question must he ask to get to the city of truth?"

[MuGen]

doorknob, crowbar, battering ram, axe, dynamite, key...

sledge hammer, security panel, motion (if automatic door)...

The will of mankind and the persistance of such good will! (if a door to the future)

But I like doorknob.

incorrect

"Them" includes the woman. She has four male children.

All of them are boys. But simply stating that half are boys.

I assume the hired help is carrying two sacks rather than two sacks of grain... and I also assume that a sack of grain weighs more than two empty sacks. So, the farmer carries a heavier load.

Correct

The carny wrote a weight (i.e. 120 lbs) and the boy must have exlaimed "O! My weight is not that of 120 lbs. I weigh but only 115!" When the carny, as trickey as he may be, wrote "115" on his paper, having not explained that he could write the weight before or after the kid revealed the value, but that he had to write it on the paper at all.

He wrote "your exact weight."

Assuming today is not 1988? What if 1955 was a town, or a hospital? Suppose Age 33 was also a location.

He was born in Room 1988

Brothers and Sisters I have none, but this man's father is my father's son

this man's father is the person speaking.

THE FOLLOWING RIDDLES HAVEN"T BEEN SOLVED:


" The word CANDY can be spelled using just 2 letters. Can you figure out how?"

FOUR is HALF of FIVE.
Is this statement True or False?

[Happydude]

hey! this isn't fair! i wrote those answers and then he edited his post! GRRR! i should be compensated! compensated i say!

[MuGen]

Yes Happydude, you got the sacks of grain and the carnival weight riddle correct. Go you! now answer the other riddles :beerchug:

[Canyarion]

Hey! "Brothers and Sisters I have none, but this man's father is my father's son." this man's father is the person speaking. SO 'this man' is the son of the one telling. Right?

And I'll just say that 4 is not the half of 5. But it probably has to do with FOUR and HALF and FIVE.

And do you mean the man was born in room 1955? Cause you said 1988. :)

"half of them are boys"--> I thought of that explenation, but it would be too stupid. :(

[BreakABone]

FOUR is HALF of FIVE.
Is this statement True or False?

Gonna go with true... but eh

" The word CANDY can be spelled using just 2 letters. Can you figure out how?"
The letters C and Y or candy spaced out.

And just because the batman fan inside of me won't let it go...

"Riddle me this
Riddle me that
Who's afraid of the big black bat?"

[Canyarion]

" The word CANDY can be spelled using just 2 letters. Can you figure out how?"Write CAN in one letter and DY in the second letter. (letter can be the thing you put in an envelope [no, not The One Ring!]). :)

[ulala06]

"A man is walking and comes to a fork in the road. He's heard a tale that one path leads to a city of truth, in which no man can lie. The other path, of course, leads to a city of farce, in which no man can speak the truth. At the fork of the road, however, is a man from one of the cities. Being foreign to the area, the traveller cannot identify whether the man was from the city of truth or farce, so he had to ask a question. He doesn't have much time, unfortunately, so he can only ask one question. Which question must he ask to get to the city of truth?"

this reminds me of "labyrinth"...

"would a man from the other town tell me that this way leads to the city of truth?"

[GameMaster]

Hint: To defeat Kyuzo, the evil riddler, simply insert a piece of any of his riddles between quotation marks and enter it into Google. The answers to his and other trickster's riddles will soon become apparent.

[The Germanator]

this reminds me of "labyrinth"...

"would a man from the other town tell me that this way leads to the city of truth?"

Yeah, totally from Labyrinth, well maybe not originally, but still...

"Chilly Down with the Fire Gang!"

[MuGen]

The Riddle of CANDY Has been solved....although a good guess the letters C and Y is the correct answer.

Answer this paradigm...

If a tree falls, and no one is around to hear it, does it still make a sound?

and this one,

What would be the next sequence of numbers:
11
21
1211
11221
212211
12112221
1112213211
312211131221
1311334113112211
11132123142113212221
........

And no googling! GameMaster! :mad:

[Stray_Bullet]

this reminds me of "labyrinth"...

"would a man from the other town tell me that this way leads to the city of truth?"

If honest and the path leads to truth the man would say "no"
If honest and the path leads to false the man would say "yes"
If a liar and the path leads to truth the man would say "no"
If a liar and the path leads to false the man would say "yes"

but while you are correct, I forgot a very important detail that set this apart from the labyrinth :unsure:.

The ammendment to the riddle is as follows:
Suppose neither of the two villages know of the other's existance nor their abilities to tell truth or not.

You gain credit for giving an answer to the original question. However, I did indeed leave a part out. Mah bad,

[Seth]

Just a suggestion but imo it would be better if one person posted a riddle and whoever answers it correctly gets to post the next riddle. Not everyone just throwing them out whenever. That way it's kind of like a more guidelined competition.

So yeah, someone post a riddle!

[Typhoid]

*rolls eyes* This ones super easy:


"A man and his son are driving in a car, They get into a fatal accident, the man dies, and the boy is hospitalized.

When rushed in, the nurse says to the doctor "Doctor, this boy was in a serious car accident, and needs to be operated on right away."

The Doctor says "I can't operate on him, He is my son."


How is this possible?




Again, its super easy, I dont know why im bothering...someone else probably put it already.



"I have no legs, Yet I can run, What Am I?"

[MuGen]

The man died, and the boy was hospitalized, but the other driver on the other side of the accident is the Doctor's son.

[Typhoid]

The man died, and the boy was hospitalized, but the other driver on the other side of the accident is the Doctor's son.


Nope, you're thinking too hard.

[Seth]

The doctor is the boy's grandfather?

kind of offshot but it's a try.

[Typhoid]

The doctor is the boy's grandfather?

kind of offshot but it's a try.



Nope, considering the doctor says "He is my son."


You guys are lame, and your thinking WAY too hard.



One more wrong answer and I'll just say it, I can't wait for this lameness to stop. :p

[Blackmane]

"I have no legs, Yet I can run, What Am I?"

water

[ulala06]

water

or a refrigerator.

[Canyarion]

If honest and the path leads to truth the man would say "no"
If honest and the path leads to false the man would say "yes"
If a liar and the path leads to truth the man would say "no"
If a liar and the path leads to false the man would say "yes"

but while you are correct, I forgot a very important detail that set this apart from the labyrinth :unsure:.

You gain credit for giving an answer to the original question. However, I did indeed leave a part out. Mah bad,
"What would you answer if I asked you what way the City of Truth is?"
If he lies, it will be a double lie, thus telling the truth. :)
"A man and his son are driving in a car, They get into a fatal accident, the man dies, and the boy is hospitalized.
When rushed in, the nurse says to the doctor "Doctor, this boy was in a serious car accident, and needs to be operated on right away."
The Doctor says "I can't operate on him, He is my son."
How is this possible?
The docter is A WOMAN. The mother of te boy. :) I've heard it before, probably here.
"I have no legs, Yet I can run, What Am I?"
Or time. "Time's running up!"

What would be the next sequence of numbers:
11
21
1211
11221
212211
12112221
1112213211
312211131221
1311334113112211
11132123142113212221I've heard that little kids solve that with no problem at all. We're thinking too hard, too mathemetic perhaps.
But I don't know the answer. :(

It ends with 11. :unsure:

[Stray_Bullet]

The answer I for my labyrinth style question, assuming the man knows nothing of either city, is "which way, of these two paths, did you come from?" He will point you to the truth.

[MuGen]

It ends with 11. :unsure:

11
21
1211
11221
212211
12112221
1112213211
312211131221
1311334113112211
11132123142113212221
the next line would be
311312111213111412211312113211

Each next line is describing the line above....
11
21 - two ones
1211 - ^ one two, one one
11221 - ^ one one, one two, two ones

so on and so forth... the last two lines...

11132123142113212221
311312111213111412211312113211 - ^ three ones, one three, one two, one one, one two, one three, one one, one four, one two, two ones, one three, one two, one one, three two, one one

[Bube]

Hey! The
11
12
1211
...
thing was asked before.

Edit: Oops. Didn't see Cany answer the doctor one.

[Canyarion]

1211 - ^ one two, one one
11221 - ^ one one, one two, two ones
Wouldn't that be 111221 then? Instead of 11221?

[MuGen]

missed a number..... my mistake

it doesn't effect the outcome of the rest of the sequence.... because the next line only describes the above line....

[Blackmane]

or a refrigerator.

Or anything electric :D

Ill throw out a riddle:

First one going to guess, your breath.

Second one I know is suicide. Heard it before as well.

[Canyarion]

and the last two were pretty easy.

two men walk up a hill each day. one day they walk up the hill and find a cabin which hadn't been there the day before. they look in the window of the cabin and see two dead men. the cause of death is apparent, and obviously unnatural, although there are no signs of physical harm to the men other than some scrapes and bruises. how can they know how the men died?

Riddle time:



Here on earth it is true, yesterday is always before today; but there is a place where yesterday always follows today. Where?

[Crash]

yep...

here's more

1. A woman shoots her husband.Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both
go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?

2. There are two plastic jugs filled with water. How could you put all of this water into a barrel, without using the jugs or any
dividers, and still tell which water came from which jug?

3. What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and gray when you throw it away?

4. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?

5. This is an unusual paragraph.
I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it! In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it,
and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out! Try to do so without any
coaching!


1. If you have it, you want to share it. If you share it, you don't have it. What is it?

2. The more you have of it, the less you see. What is it?

3. What book was once owned by only the wealthy, but now everyone can have it? You can't buy it in a bookstore or take it from a library.

4. What gets whiter the dirtier that it gets?

5. What happened in the middle of the twentieth century that will not happen again for 4,000 years?

6. What has no beginning, end, or middle?

7. What has to be broken before it can be used?

8. What does no man want, yet no man wants to lose?

9. How many bricks does it take to complete a building made of brick?

10. Big as a biscuit, deep as a cup, even a river can't fill it up. What is it?

[Canyarion]

Here on earth it is true, yesterday is always before today; but there is a place where yesterday always follows today. Where?The Day After Tomorrow?

And Crash, it doesn't really add to the atmosphere when you quote it right ffrom another site. :(


2. There are two plastic jugs filled with water. How could you put all of this water into a barrel, without using the jugs or any
dividers, and still tell which water came from which jug? Freeze the water of 1 jug. :)
4. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday? Easy: yesterday, today, tomorrow

1. If you have it, you want to share it. If you share it, you don't have it. What is it? A secret.
2. The more you have of it, the less you see. What is it? Darkness? Or something else that obstructs sight.
4. What gets whiter the dirtier that it gets? A roof with snow on it? Or basicly anything that gets white stuff on it... like a plate with powder sugar...
6. What has no beginning, end, or middle? Time...?
7. What has to be broken before it can be used? ehm.. I was thinking about glue, but then the sentence wouldn't make sense. Bread. You can't eat bread before you cut/break it...:unsure:

[Bube]

Batch 1, 1: She shoots a photograph of him.

Batch 1, 5: No letter "e" in the whole paragraph.

Batch 2, 2: Alcohol :D

Batch 2, 7: An egg.

Batch 2, 8: A job, probably.

That's all from me. No idea about the other ones, and I really want to know the answer to the one Typhoid asked.

[Typhoid]

The Day After Tomorrow?



Nope.



4. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?


This is a complete guess, but the Easter long Weekend? Haha.



9. How many bricks does it take to complete a building made of brick?

You're saying I'm right? Sweet.

I think Ligers (not the fantasy creatures) are also in the same category as mules... well, except they're obviously not as common.

Not to mention "Beefalo," "Zeedonks," and "Wholphins"

Three + Two, is Five and there are fewer letters, then in three.


The rest are good, but I was looking for something else in this one, although your answer works too.

Can you think of the answer I'm looking for?

[MuGen]

Thats impossible...

A word of letters THREE - self explanatory.
ADD two - THREETWO or THREE + TWO?
Fewer it will be - THREE + TWO = FIVE having one fewer letter.

It's not a word that can be written three times over saying the same thing.

in response to the empty... answer

EDIT: Few is three letters and if you add two letters, Fewer it will be.....

The word is few...... thats pretty tricky.

[ulala06]

the fewer one was EASy.

AND FOR THE LAST TIME:

it can't be a pig because dead pigs smell AWFUL!!!!!!!111one!!!

[MuGen]

It is a pig, my lovely beauty, for my biology teacher taught us that riddle ages ago.

And they do smell better then they do when living, as he tought it while we were dissecting it.

In any case... thats the answer no doubt about it.

the only way it could be a pig is if you were talking about how when a pig dies you cook it as pork... they smell just like any other animal that's dead.

[Canyarion]

Riddle me this!

Whoever makes it, tells it not.
Whoever takes it, knows it not.
And whoever knows it wants it not.

What is it?A fart! :sneaky:

And Crash, you never said if my and Bubes answers to your riddles were correct. :(

[Blackmane]

A fart! :sneaky:

It's already been answered, its counterfeit money.


And yes, you got it Kyuzo. Pretty tricky indeed.

Ever thought maybe your teacher was one of those pricks that twisted riddles to fit a situation? Ever also thought that just about all of these riddles have multiple answers, including the ones in which you first posted that I answered "incorrectly?"

[ulala06]

a man walks into a bar and orders a glass of water. the bartender pulls out a gun and points at him, and the man says thank you and leaves. why?

and this one's just funny so i'm going to post it AND it's answer because there's NO WAY that anyone would get it:

A man goes to a restaurant, orders albatross, takes one bite, leaves the restaurant and shoots himself. Why?

ANSWER: The man was stranded on a desert island with himself, his wife and a stranger. One day, the stranger came to him telling him his wife had been killed by wild animals on the other side of the island. That evening, the stranger made dinner for the man out of an albatross that he had found. After the man was rescued, on suspicion, he went to a restaurant and ordered albatross, tasted it, realized that he had eaten his wife on the island and committed suicide.

[Crash]

WTF????

the first one = the man had hiccups and by scaring him, he got rid of em

[BreakABone]

[COLOR=Sienna]It's already been answered, its counterfeit money.


And yes, you got it Kyuzo. Pretty tricky indeed.

Did we completely skip my post where I got it long before Kyuzo? :(

[Canyarion]

He had hick-ups! Or what are they called?

Edit: too late. :(

[MuGen]

I actually answered Counterfeit way while back, and he completely missed it and posted the riddle again. Is when I answered Counterfeit AGAIN, and thats probably when you answered BreakAbone...

Look at the previous posts at the first time he asked the question.

He's a riddle

You can look at it and see yourself.
You can touch it and not see yourself.
What is it?

[Dark Samurai]

You can look at it and see yourself.
You can touch it and not see yourself.
What is it?

Water? If you dont touch it you can see yourself, and when you do your face gets distorted (sp?)... maybe?

[Crash]

Water? If you dont touch it you can see yourself, and when you do your face gets distorted (sp?)... maybe?
just what i was thinking

[MuGen]

Yes, thats correct.

Next riddle

It spins,
It plays music,
But it's not readable
What is it?

[Blackmane]

A CD/ Vinyl

[GameMaster]

Yes, thats correct.

Next riddle

It spins,
It plays music,
But it's not readable
What is it?

A merry-go-round. Final answer. It is 100% correct and there are other possibilities too.

[MuGen]

Cd/Vinyl still need to be read by magnetic laser or needle.

Merry-Go-Round is a good guess, and can work, but not the answer I'm looking for. But i'd imagine the music on the merry go round comes from a device that reads the music.

It's a music box. You open it up and the figure spins, and tuned platelets are hit by the turning gears inside to play a preprogrammed song. But it does not read something.

actually this could be a turntable too.

[MuGen]

Turntables read Vinyl with a magnetic needle.

New Riddle:

I'm in your pants,
I'm important to your life,
I satisfy many people,
But I am easily lost.
What am I?

[Canyarion]

Car keys? Keys? Tissues?

[ulala06]

ah, but you said IT wasn't readable... you cannot read a turntable, therefore it could be an answer.

oh and it's money.

[Vampyr]

New Riddle:

What am I?

An erection.

[Stray_Bullet]

An erection.
That goes really, really well with my condom answer.

Maybe it's money... because riddles LOVE to assume that EVERYBODY has money in their pants.

I'm losing faith in riddles.

EDIT: Woops, Ulala already answered money.

[Canyarion]

I wish I would have answered Super Monkey Balls. :(

[MuGen]

Ulala was correct in a sense. The answer was a wallet. Because It's important to your life, considering you carry your ID in there and such. This Riddle thread has gotten huuuuge.

New Riddle:

I'm the source of your hearing, but am very quiet.
I am not a part of your body.
What am I?

[Dark Samurai]

Hearing Aid?

[MuGen]

That answer could work.... but not the answer I'm looking for. It's a riddle and they have several solutions but riddles usually have ONE solution they are looking for.

So, that's incorrect technically.

Let me rephrase it:

I play music, but everyone else can't hear me.
I am not a part of your body, but I go with you.
What am I?

[Bube]

Whistle?

[MuGen]

Incorrect, no one can hear it.

I play music, but everyone else can't hear me.
I am not part of your body, But I go with you,
What am I?

[Bube]

Ok then, a walkman/discman/iPod/whatever?

[MuGen]

Your on the right track.... but no.

[Canyarion]

Ear plugs? :( Not really an interesting riddle actually. But I don't have any better, so.... :)

[MuGen]

more like headphones.... i need people to post there OWN riddles.

[ulala06]

Well Danny got them both right.

I was watching an episode of Batman: The Animated Series and The Batman, you could probably guess who the villian was.

According to Wikipedia:

In 2005, a new Riddler debuted in The Batman animated series. In this version, the Riddler has a very Gothic look, apparently inspired by Marilyn Manson, and is voiced by Robert Englund (best known for his role as a supernatural serial killer in A Nightmare On Elm Street).


Of course ruining classic cartoon images seems to be the trend these days. :(

My favorite renditions for all the characters can be seen here:

I hope you agree with me, since you're the ultimate Batman fan.

It depends.
I like the look of the original cartoons, when they made the switch I didn't really care for some of the new desgins.

~Edit~
Just to keep the thread on topic.. Well, I'm not sure if the answer I'm looking for works here either...

A house is built with all 4 sides facing south. A bear walks by. What colour is the bear?

[Bube]

The bear is white. And the house is built at the North Pole.
