Riddles by Fuzzles on 04-17-2006 at 08:00 AM
Hi,
I thought i would add some more FUN to this forum.
I am gonna post some riddles. Yes, it is possible to cheat, just google it. But thats no fun for you or anyone else so i am just saying dont cheat unless you wanna wreck it.
Have Fun!!!!!!!
1. A man walks into a bar and asks for a glass of water. The bartender pulls out a shotgun and points it at him. The man says, thank you and leaves.
2.You approach two talking doors. One door leads to the City of Truth, while the other door leads to the City of Liars. You do not know which door is which. You are able to ask only one question to determine which door is which. The door that leads to the City of Liars always speaks lies, while the door that leads to the City of Truth always speaks the truth. You want to go to the City of Truth. What question do you ask to determine which door leads to the City of Truth
3.A man is lying dead with a backpack on, face down in the desert. What happened
If u need help post, or if u know the answer post

this is old but i just had to post because of how ridiculous the real answer is (google the question )
when you could just ask "How many doors are there?" if the one you ask says one, go through the other one, if it says two go through it

the dude asked for a drink of water becuase he had the hiccups and when the guy pulled out a shotgun the guy was taken by surprise therefore no longer had hiccups

The answer is no... Well I think so. See, because the last line is a question, "can you guess the riddle?" so kids would just say no, because they couldn't, but older people would ignore that as part of the riddle.

What is grey has very large ears and a trunk?
RE: Riddles by Reaper on 04-18-2006 at 01:45 PM
3 people go to a hotel, and pay £30 for a room. They split the bill equally, so each pays £10. An hour later, the manager goes to their room, and says that there is a discount on that room tonight because of a faulty lightbulb. They only have to pay £25. Each of the customers take £1 back, and they let the manager keep the other £2.
Now, they paid £9 each, and 9x3=27. The manager got £2, so that makes £29. Where's the other pound gone?

the £2 the manager got is part of the £27 because they only paid £25 altogether for the room, therefore there is £3 remaining, and they all had £1 each
RE: Riddles by Reaper on 04-18-2006 at 01:57 PM
Damn you >.<
[Edit] to put it in another perpesctive:
Originally they had paid £30 for a bill of £30. Now they've paid £27 for a bill of £25, so the manager pocketed the remaining £2. The remaining £3 (not £1, as the £2 should be subtracted from their payment not added) is shared between the customers as they've taken £1 refund each.
So original situation:
HOTEL: £30
New situation:
HOTEL: £25
Manager: £2
Customers: £3
So their payment of £27 includes the manager's slice, and there's £3 "missing" in their wallets.

In correct way of counting
one of them has it since 8*3=24
But they got 25 pounds meaning one of the three has it

Each number describes the previous number, so:

One one
Two ones
One two and one one
One one, one two and two ones
Three ones, two twos and one one
One three, one one, two twos and two ones
So the next number would be:
One one, one three, two ones, three twos and one one

Roosters don't lay eggs. Hens do. However, a rooster could be in possesion of eggs so in which case they'd go south.

Thats pretty much the lamest math question ive heard Anyone who has common sence can solve it. If it was between more people or something then simply use variables
You got $x. Your friend got $(x-2)
Total = $20
x+x-2 = 20
2(x-1) = 20
x = 11
You got $11 and your friend got $9
I know you can just say it out but eh .... math > *

Igor went on his yearly holiday to Lake Balaton. What with the postal services being what they are in these rather uncertain times, the chances of any letter posted to Igor by Dr Acula, his master, reaching Igor are only 2/3. The chances of any letter Igor posts to Acula reaching Acula are 3/4. What are the chances if Acula writes and posts a letter to Igor that he receives a reply? Naturally Igor would never write off his own bat (no pun intended) but he always diligently answers any letter he receives.
This is a hard one ;p

This is amazing!!!!
The paragraph below is most unusual. How quickly can you find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so ordinary you'd think nothing was wrong with it - and in fact, nothing is wrong with it. It is unusual though. Why?
"Gatsby was walking back from a visit down in Branton Hill's manufacturing district on a Saturday night. A busy day's traffic had had its noisy run; and with not many folks in sight, His Honor got along without having to stop to grasp a hand, or talk; for a mayor out of City Hall is a shining mark for any politician. And so, coming to Broadway, a booming bass drum and sounds of singing, told of a small Salvation Army unit carrying on amidst Broadway's night shopping crowds. Gatsby, walking towards that group, saw a young girl, back toward him, just finishing a long, soulful oration ... "
The above passage is taken from the book "Gatsby" written by Ernest Vincent Wright in the late 1930's
What is unusual about the paragraph above ?

If you had a fox, a chicken and some corn to be transported across a river on a boat, how would you take them all across?
NB: You can only take one of each at a time on the boat across.
Clue: Fox eat chicken and chicken eat corn.
Hi All...
RE: Riddles by Fuzzles on 04-23-2006 at 06:03 AM
bring the chicken over
Go back
Bring the fox over
Bring the Chicken back
Bring the fox over
Bring the chicken back to where they all are
