|
bobert

here's another:
Jack and Jill were have ing a wierd horse race. The last person to reach the finish line won. after 7 hours, they had moved 4feet. Jim came down, told them to get off thier horses and whispered something in thier ears. Immediatly they jumped back on the horses and raced to the finis line as fast as they could. Jim swears he didn't change the rules or call off the race, so what did he say?
|
plokkey
|
I need a clue (i got the other one because it wondered why it was a clown lol)
|
bobert
|
sorry maybe after 5 people guess. you can ask questions.
|
plokkey
|
Ok fine.... you so mean : (
|
bobert
|
Ok heres a small one: Make sure you read the riddle very closely, noting where I use more general words where I could use specific ones. Help any?
|
plokkey
|
Nope im still clueless
|
Gman1000
|
I am totally clueless. I noticed it is the first person though. Not the first person on a horse.
|
bobert
|
take some guesses buddy.
|
Gman1000
|
He told them that their horses were crazy?
|
bobert
|
Actuall it was the last horse to cross the finish line. I may have wrote it wrong.
@gman
Nope, keep guessing.
|
Gman1000
|
I need a hint.
|
bobert
|
hmmm. hard to do ith out giving it away. here, re read this sentence.
then they got back on the horses
|
Gman1000
|
I'm not very good at riddles.
|
bobert
|
I have more, so do you want the answer?
|
Gman1000
|
Give me another one but don't give me the answer. I'll let someone else figure it out.
|
bobert
|
Okey dokey
5 men are leaving a church togehter when it begins to rain. 4 of them get wet, but the fifth who didn't move, did not. How did this happen?
|
Gman1000
|
He did not come out of the church.
|
bobert
|
yes he did, since they all left together.
|
Gman1000
|
Am I right or wrong? You just said they were leaving the church. Not that they left.
|
bobert
|
@gman
No they left the church, ur wrong.
|
bobert
|
ok I'm now accepting answers to either riddle. The horse one, or the church one.
|
Gman1000
|
Try this one:
"What has four legs in the morning, two legs in the afternoon, and three legs at night?"
|
bobert
|
hmmm. never heard this one. uhhh alien that gets 2 legs cut off them regenerates one?
|
Apocalypse
|
Ive heard this before but I cant remeber the answer.
|
justin
|
the fifth man did not leave the church!
|
plokkey
|
Horse: they rode together so there wasn't a last one?
Church: was he next to the other ones?
|
justin
|
ur this is hard!!!!!!!!!
|
bobert
|
@gman
Horse: no
Church: yes Hint: Its a CHURCH
Do you want a hint 4 the church that will give it away?
|
plokkey
|
Can you give like small hints?
|
plokkey
|
Can you give like small hints?
|
bobert
|
OK two small hints
Church: one of them didn't move as in he didn't walk or anything. like he was being carried out of a church
Horse: There were two people that I said got onto the horses. But which ones did they get on, since it was the last horse to cross to cros the finish wins. (thier horse, not the one they're riding)
|
Gman1000
|
The man told them that it was the first horse, not the first person.
|
bobert
|
no. I'm going to give this away if the next guess is wrong.
|
plokkey
|
The horses werent theirs when they crossed? i dunno
the guy was being carried in the thing
|
bobert
|
Really close on both
He told them to get on each others horses,
and the one who didn't get wet was in a coffin (a funeral at a church)
|
Gman1000
|
Oh, now someone guess about my riddle on page 3.
|
bobert
|
Can we ask questions if we can:
Are they legs as if on a body?
|
Gman1000
|
Yes, they are.
|
plokkey
|
Isn t that the man riddle? as a metaphor?
|
Gman1000
|
Maybe it is, maybe it isn't.
|
plokkey
|
Is it the sphinx riddle?
|
Danstant
|
I am clueless also. Very hard!
|
Gman1000
|
The riddle is a metaphor. There, a hint.
|
plokkey
|
Answer is man most classic riddle ever
|
Gman1000
|
Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner! Care to explain, plokkey?
|
plokkey
|
Ok the metaphor is:
the day stand for a persons life
the morning is the begninng etc
The beginning of your life is babyhood, since you cant walk you crawl, (4legs)
now you are grown, you can walk with (2 legs)
as a old man you start to lose balance and become fragile, youll need a cane (3 legs)
|
Gman1000
|
That is correct. Good job plokkey.
|
plokkey
|
Yay! I dont have a riddle right now, anyone wanna do one?
|
Gman1000
|
I don't have one either. I'll find one though.
|
Gman1000
|
Here:
Pronounced as one letter,
And written with three,
Two letters there are,
And two only in me.
I'm double, I'm single,
I'm black, blue, and gray,
I'm read from both ends,
And the same either way.
What am I?
|
plokkey
|

an educated guess lol
|
Gman1000
|
Nope. I won't give any hints either.
|
plokkey
|
The black blue and gray maade me think harder lol
Edit: Made this blue for you
|
bobert
|
Hmm...I think I've heard this before...Its a letter that is also a word. Its a palindrome too. different colors...OH!!! is it an eye?
|
bobert
|
Ok heres another, if that ones right.
A bus full of people are traveling over a bridge to Las Vegas. On the trip, no one gets on or off, but when the bus reaches the other side, there is not a single person on the bus. What happened?
|
Gman1000
|
Bobert,
That answer is correct.
Hmmm... That riddle is going to make me think.
|
Gman1000
|
Umm... You said there isn't one person on the bus. There are several people on the bus! I have no clue. Hint?
|
plokkey
|

|
bobert
|
No gman, but good guess. (kinda on the right track) Remember I said not a Single person on the bus. and it was going to Vegas!
|
plokkey
|

Gman1000
|
They get married on the bus, therefore no longer "single".

bobert
