riddles.. NLSC Style

Fri Aug 20, 2004 3:03 pm

just jumping on the "nlsc style" bandwagon :)
don't know if this has been done before but anyways here we go

Two cops walked into a room with no windows and found a dead man who obviously hung himself from the ceiling, though they couldn't figure out how. There was no chair beneath him that he might have jumped off of, or a table. Just a puddle of water. How'd he do it ?

and another one..

A man wanted to enter an exclusive club but did not know the password that was required. He waited by the door and listened. A club member knocked on the door and the doorman said, "twelve." The member replied, "six " and was let in. A second member came to the door and the doorman said, "six." The member replied, "three" and was let in. The man thought he had heard enough and walked up to the door. The doorman said ,"ten" and the man replied, "five." But he was not let in.

What should have he said?

feel free to post your own riddles

Mike's right on both.

While exploring the wilds of Canada, Wild Man Dave was captured by hostile wood fairies. Brad, the powerful chief of the fairies told him he could make one final statement which would determine how he would die. If the statement he made was false, he would be boiled in water. If the statement were true, he would be fried in oil. Wild Man Dave found neither of this options too his liking, so he made a statement that got him out of this seemingly impossible situation. What is the one statement he could have made?

he called Brad a liar.

If it is true, then Brad will let him go.

If it is false, then Brad was telling the truth and Dave will be fried.

No, he said "You will boil me in water" like BikeMibby said.

why did the guy getting into the club have to say 3?

I don't know any good riddles.

Sat Aug 21, 2004 7:44 am

he had to count the letters of the actual word

six has three letters in it :wink:

Sat Aug 21, 2004 4:53 pm

This one isn't very good, but the only one that comes to mind at the moment.

The person who made it didn't want it, the person who bought it didn't use it, and the person who used it didn't know it. What is it?

Sat Aug 21, 2004 7:44 pm

nothing? :?

Sun Aug 22, 2004 12:04 am

No, it is something. ;)

Sun Aug 22, 2004 1:13 am

A coffin.

Sun Aug 22, 2004 6:22 am

here's another one, similar to andrews but not quite..

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

j. 23: poison?

A man lives on the top floor of a skyscraper. He always uses the elevator to go up and down except that when he goes down he uses it all the way to 1rst floor but when he goes up he stops at the 40th level and finishes with the stairs.
Why?

Another one...
Here's the scene: Romeo and Juliette are in a room, both dead. Romeo is lying on the bed, dead. Juliette is lying on the ground, dead. On the ground you have broken glass and water. In the room there is a desk near the window and the window is opened.
What happen?

Why?

Perhaps he lives on the roof and elevators dont go over the 40th level because that is the maximum.

If Jackal is right and they are fish, maybe a baseball or something got thrown in and broke the fish tank and it also hit 'Romeo' and sent him flying onto the bed. Or maybe Juliet landed on the bed too but squirmed off.

edit: If J.23 is right about the fish. Not Jackal.

Correct. (Y)

Sun Aug 22, 2004 6:05 pm

heres a few

1. What row of numbers comes next?
1
11
21
1211
111221
312211
13112221

2. My first is in endurance but not in health
My second is in richer but never in wealth
my third is in beggarwood but not in oak
my fourth is in neighbour but not in folk
my fifth is like a ring, going where it came
and my sixth is the second, exactly the same.

3. When there is fire in me then I am still cold.When I own your true love's face then you will not see me.To all things I give no more than I am given.In time I may have all things, and yet I can keep nothing.What am I?

4. A man weighing 190lbs. carrying three bowling balls weighing 5 lbs. each approaches a large ravine. The only way to cross the ravine is a bridge with a weight limit of 200 lbs. The ravine is too far to throw, roll, or float the balls across. How can the man cross the ravine in one trip, with all three bowling balls?

5. "When the music stops, the girl dies."
P.S. Its not a music box.
