Does anyone have any good riddles? I have 2.
Maybe.
Here’s one:
“If I start a terrible topic about riddles on a Tuesday in July, how many replies will it get?”


The other one is about stone statues and I’m not going to take the time to type it out unless someone actually wants to answer.

You’re driving a car and the wheels fall off, how many pancakes can fit in a doghouse?

Ace July 6, 2010, 5:45 AM EST.

Comment ID #55331

The answer is 27.Relf
These are far too easy.

HERE’S ANOTHER:
I had a dollar.
Then I ate it.
How many biscuits do I have left?

Mallow July 6, 2010, 5:50 AM EST.

Comment ID #55339

Sorry, answer is 12, because hamsters don’t wear shoes. Gotta try harder man.

And the answer to your question lies in this one, “how many biscuits can you juggle?”

Ace July 6, 2010, 5:53 AM EST.

Comment ID #55347

Darn, I thought I had you for sure…

And as for the question,
I can juggle as many as Wednesday, if only not spinning in a reverse square motion.

Mallow July 6, 2010, 6:01 AM EST.

Comment ID #55348

Oh, then you have 4 biscuits.

Ace July 6, 2010, 6:03 AM EST.

Comment ID #55349

Exactly. Because 4 biscuits is what all true warriors strive for.

Several people are found dead in a cabin on the side of a mountain. Why?

Mallow July 6, 2010, 6:04 AM EST.

Comment ID #55351

Sorry, my fault entirely.

Comment ID #55355

Plane crashed due to ninja star in the fuselage

Ace July 6, 2010, 6:24 AM EST.

Comment ID #55356

With a Ninja Bazooka, good eyesight, nothing better to do, and a plane flying over a mountain.

That’s how.

Comment ID #55444

@Maverik
That’s pretty cool.

@MiwAuturu
I still can’t figure that one out. It’s just too confusing.

@Leaving a riddle
What?

Mallow July 6, 2010, 2:28 PM EST.

Comment ID #55450

Oh sorry, typed that with out my contacts in.

When is a door not a door?

Leaving a riddle July 6, 2010, 2:40 PM EST.

Comment ID #55452

I love riddles! Why didn’t I think of a thread like this sooner?

@Leaving a riddle: Hmm. Toughie. When it’s a wall? (Like a broken automatic door that won’t open?) IDK.

Here’s one of my favorites: You are walking along, and you see something on the ground. It is a man dressed in red. He has a sword lodged in his head. You pick him up and continue walking as if nothing happened.

Why?

Nope, when it is a jar.

I have no tounge and yet i roar
I have no legs and yet i run

(i have no idea about Lost Carols one)

Goldwulf Q. Triplsexy July 6, 2010, 2:57 PM EST.

Comment ID #55459

You’re lost in the woods.
You come to a fork in the path. In the middle of the fork are two stone statues, who are alike in EVERY way EXCEPT for one:
One always lies.
One always tells the truth.
You do not know which is which.
One path leads to rescue, and the other path leads to despair and death.

What ONE question could you ask both statues where they would give you the same answer and you would know which path to take?

Mallow July 6, 2010, 2:58 PM EST.

Comment ID #55469

@Leaving a riddle
When it’s a conquistador?

@The Lost Carol
It’s a red man-shaped lollipop?

Fizmat July 6, 2010, 3:06 PM EST.

Comment ID #55506

@Goldwulf
Is it a car?

Mallow July 6, 2010, 4:07 PM EST.

Comment ID #55507

Nope good guess though

@Leaving a riddle: When its a jar EDIT: Ahhh….it was already answered

This is light as a feather, yet no man can hold it for long what is it?

(nameless) July 6, 2010, 9:24 PM EST.

Comment ID #55746

Lucy. She is white (which is light) and if you try holding her…

Also, a breath.

Fizmat July 6, 2010, 9:28 PM EST.

Comment ID #55749

@Fizmat: Breath is correct, on further thought Lucy is also acceptable, in fact I thinks it’s a much better answer

Man walks over man walks under, in time of war he burns asunder what is it?

(nameless) July 6, 2010, 9:34 PM EST.

Comment ID #55761

@Mallow.

You ask the other statue which road the other statue would tell you is the safe road and take the opposite one of that. If you’re talking to the statue that only tells the truth he would naturally tell you the road the lying statue would make you go (thus making it the wrong path) and if you were talking to the lying statue he would lie about which road the truth-telling statue would tell you to take again pointing you towards the wrong road.

@Nameless.

A bridge

Here’s a riddle for you guys:

You’ve been sentenced to death but before your execution you’re allowed to make one statement. If this statement is true you will be hanged and if it’s false you will be drowned. Due to the way riddles work the execution party will instantly know whether or not your statement is true or not.

What do you need to say to escape your fate?

Pixelnator July 6, 2010, 10:14 PM EST.

Comment ID #55781

This statement is false.

Radial July 6, 2010, 10:49 PM EST.

Comment ID #55783

Yep. For cool points you could also say “I will be drowned” creating the same result.

Here’s a classic before I go to bed. Probably easily solved by Google magic because of that.

Greater than God,
More evil than the Devil,
The poor have it,
The rich want it,
But if you eat me,
You’ll die.

What am I?

Pixelnator July 6, 2010, 10:51 PM EST.

Comment ID #55785

Nothing. Didn’t even need Google.

Hannibal July 6, 2010, 10:59 PM EST.

Comment ID #55786

Right’o.

And in before someone links to that freaking blue eyes riddle by the xkcd guy. Meanwhile, I’ll be heading to bed now.

Pixelnator July 6, 2010, 11:00 PM EST.

Comment ID #55787

Alright, this riddle has 2 answers, one for each question.

What falls, but never breaks? And what breaks, but never falls?

This one’s a classic, so someone must have heard it before.

Hannibal July 6, 2010, 11:00 PM EST.

Comment ID #55792

Night and Day,
I haven’t heard that one exactly, but I’ve heard similar ones.

@Mallow, did you even get past the “Thisisnottom” homepage?

MiwAuturu July 6, 2010, 11:06 PM EST.

Comment ID #55796

Here’s one of my own;

I am the greatest weapon in the world
yet can mean nothing at the same time.
In fact I am another weapon
but its beginning is my end.
What am I?

Leaving a Riddle July 6, 2010, 11:18 PM EST.

Comment ID #55801

Time?
And @Miw: the order’s wrong, but correct. The traditional answer is daybreak and nightfall, but yours is the “true” answer.

Hannibal July 6, 2010, 11:36 PM EST.

Comment ID #55806

Alright, fine, but I’m not good:
How many times can you subtract 5 from 25?

Also: Before Mount Everest was discovered, what was the tallest mountain on earth?

Obsidian July 6, 2010, 11:51 PM EST.

Comment ID #55807

Infinitely?

Hannibal July 6, 2010, 11:51 PM EST.

Comment ID #55808

Nope try again.

Leaving a Riddle July 6, 2010, 11:52 PM EST.

Comment ID #55809

@Obsidian, it was still Mount Everest, we just didn’t know it yet

Austin St. James July 6, 2010, 11:55 PM EST.

Comment ID #55810

Grats to Austin St. James. That is correct.

Other riddle still stands. Any takers?

Obsidian July 6, 2010, 11:56 PM EST.

Comment ID #55811

I want to say 5, but it seems to obvious.

Edit: oh wait I just got it, once, then you’re not substracting it from 25 anymore
