I have two arms, but fingers none. I have two feet, but cannot run. I carry well but I have found, I carry best with my feet OFF the ground. What am I?

(If the first person to reply solves it, I am officially dead.)

Ok, another one. Hopefully this will actually be A THING TO FIGURE OUT!!! lol

Tom and his younger sister were fighting. Their mother was tired of the fighting, and decided to punish them by making them stand on the same piece of newspaper in such a way that they couldn't touch each other.
How did she accomplish this?

Did she put the newspaper under a door with Tom and his sis standing on the opposite side of it?

*sigh* I GIVE UP WITH THIS!

I wanted to find a HARD riddle and have people actually discussing about what could be the answer!!! I mean that's what every other riddle got...

Gah! Someone else post a riddle already!

Oh that's a good one! Is it a chain? Cuz that sounds perfect.

Too funny DLCS that you got that right answer without even realizing it.

I still don't get the "D" part as the answer but hey it works for me!

Here we go... I have a hard one.... hopefully.

I turn polar bears white
And I will make you cry.
I make guys have to pee
And girls comb their hair.
I make celebrities look stupid
And normal people look like celebrities.
I turn pancakes brown
And make your champagne bubble.
If you squeeze me, I'll pop.
If you look at me, you'll pop.

I'm sorry Matt. The first one...the chain was obvious, that one was to easy and the second I cheated...I googled the first part of it.

dlcs18 · Post by **dlcs18** » Thu Jul 31, 2008 11:21 pm

Well, it's not anyone's fault that they were the first person and got it right... It's just a bit annoying.

Has someone a good riddle which is a little story involved like the baseball player, the elevator(too easy), the ashes of the cremated man, the green rock (that was on the edge

for it was not really real

) the arm, (too hard and tedious

), the parachute (also too easy).

But a little story or situation where are questions needed to find out what exactly happened.

Edit:
Robyn and Monica, you know websites with such puzzles though? Please post one of them.

But not that easy that Lutz knows at once

There must be several good questions needed.

Ok then.

Two men enter a bar. They both order identical drinks. One lives; the other dies.

Ask Yes or No questions to find out why...

One drank too much and the other one didn't!

No. They both drank the same amount.

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Thu Jul 31, 2008 11:48 pm

1. Did they get exactly the same drink?

2. Is the drink the reason that one of the two dies?

3. Are they both normal people?

Yes to all of your questions.

Drank too fast and choked lol!?!

No. None of them choked.

1. So, although they are both normal, there must be difference between them, some kind of difference that causes that one of them dies, and the other one not, by drinking the same drink. Right?

2. Is it a drink what most people (let's say 30% or more of all people) drink? (Instead of something pretty special)

3. Has one of them some allergy?

4. Was alcohol in the drink?

5. If 4=true does that matter to this story?

rescuefire · Post by **rescuefire** » Fri Aug 01, 2008 12:11 am

Yeah I'm thinking allergy or poison.

Did the one man kill the other man?

Did the person who gave them the drinks kill the one man?

Was he murdered?

Was it an allergic reaction?
(Marinus asked this already but I'm just thinking/typing outloud)

1. No, they are as normal as each other
2. What the drink is doesn't matter, so let's just say they were drinking water

3. No
4. No, but that's not relevant anyway

rescuefire · Post by **rescuefire** » Fri Aug 01, 2008 12:12 am

Was there poison involved?

Yes.

You said the drinks are the same though? So there is poison in both drinks! For the one person the poison doesn't matter so that person I don't call normal as each other.

Yep. Poison in both drinks.

The two people are still the same as each other, they are exactly the same, no matter what.
