It's green:
It's green, big and not a tank.

Nope, not a building…

It's really a tank… haha I made a funny!


Fathers and sons
Two fathers and two sons went to a fancy restaurant. Each of them ordered a plate of eggs and some orange juice. The waitress came back with their order and put three plates of eggs and three glasses of orange juice on the table.
Did the make a mistake?

Yep, grandfather father and son, the waitress didn't make a mistake.

Eggs:
an orange is as big as two eggs. A basket has enough room for 12 oranges. how many eggs can you put in an empty basket?

Yep only one, the whole oranges thing is a distraction!

Who am I:
I am weightless but you can see me, put me in a bucket and I'll make the bucket lighter.

Yep, two answers are possible. Light and a hole!

What am I:
When you have me you want to share me, when you share me you won't have me anymore.

Nope not a story… a secret!

Divers:
Why do divers fall backwards into the water?

Because if they fall forward they hit their face on the deck!





Now onto PP's riddles…

A: No clue…
A: He didn't want to wake the sleeping tablets?
A: When it's ajar!

You're right and right.

And the answer to the first question is a clumsy nun.
Those were my two cents.

Heh, I was thinking my avatar but that would be a very bad one.

Here's some more:
Question:
Which question can never be answered with yes?

Up:
What goes up and never down?

Barrel:
A barrel weighs 40 kg. what needs to be added to make it weigh 15 kg?

Agh a secret, I thought it'd be something abstract!

Question:
Which question can never be answered with yes?

^This one.
(If that's not the right answer, I propose the answer is “yes” )

Up:
What goes up and never down?

Age

Barrel:
A barrel weighs 40 kg. what needs to be added to make it weigh 15 kg?

it already weighs 15kg, adding anything else would be pointless!

Going to throw a little philosophy at you guys.

Is this a question?

There's no right or wrong to this but I happen to know what I consider to be the ultimate answer to it. I'll post it once I've seen some reaction from you guys.
Those were my two cents.

Here are my correct answer:

Question:
Which question can never be answered with yes?
Are you dead?

Up:
What goes up and never down?
Age.

Barrel:
A barrel weighs 40 kg. what needs to be added to make it weigh 15 kg?
Holes…





Here's some new riddles:

Mom:
A mom has seven children, half of the children are boys. How is this possible?

Fish:
Where can you find the most fish?

Food:
Give me food and I shall live, give me water and I shall die, Who am I?

Who am I:
You can find me on a summersday,
But when night comes I go away,
If you stare me in the eye,
Say to sight goodbye.
Who am I?

Mom:

I'm going to skip the obvious transsexual answer and go for saying that there are 4 boys, and 3 girls. And the mother is clearly underage.

Food:
Give me food and I shall live, give me water and I shall die, Who am I?

Oh let's see….Perhaps some form of illness that gets worse with food…
Uhh, no wait…..Maybe…Jesus!
Yes. Jesus.

Who am I:
You can find me on a summersday,
But when night comes I go away,
If you stare me in the eye,
Say to sight goodbye.
Who am I?

The sun


Incidentally:
Person 1: Oh I'm playing this video game and–Oh no!
Person 2: Are you dead?
Person 1: Yes :(

Okay okay, even though I didn't answer the fish riddle I guess that's okay.

Figured this out:
Food:
Give me food and I shall live, give me water and I shall die, Who am I?

A starving gentleman, who does not need a glass of water, but instead needs food, or he will die in seventeen seconds. Failure to give him food will result in him dying. Giving him water will also cause him to die anyway, as he is still starving to death.

The other ones are boys as well?

Fish:
Where can you find the most fish?

A book…about…fish?

Alright I've got one.

The buyer doesn't want it. The maker doesn't use it. and the user it doesn't know they're using it. What is it?

@Hippievan
D'oooh….
I still like my idea that the mother is underage and thus a child herself. :(


The buyer doesn't want it. The maker doesn't use it. and the user it doesn't know they're using it. What is it?

Buyer = Unhappy cheating husband
Maker = Prostitute with STD
User = Husband who is now unknowingly using an STD

The answer is an STD.

I was gonna say a coffin!

And yes, the other half are boys too!
And Where can you find the most fish?
Between the head and the tail!

Here's a real hard riddle:

Brothers:

Name every brothers age:

- A man is 20 years old, he has four younger brothers.

- The youngest brother is half as old as the middle brother will be in two years.

- the second youngest brother is 3 years younger than the second oldest brother.

- the difference between the oldest brother and the youngest brother is 11 years.

- the difference between the third oldest brother and the oldest brother is one year bigger than the difference between the second oldest brother and the oldest brother.

Here's one of mine own:

Suppose you have ten coins including one counterfeit coin weighing less than the real ones. Using a two-sided weighing scale, what is the least amount of weighings you must perform in order to pick out the counterfeit coin?

Billy vs. Tree – The epic struggle of boy versus tree.
Sonic Colores – It looks like it's going to be a good game because I love how the way it makes me grow.

4?
Weigh 5 and 5.
Then split the light pile and add another 1 so you can weigh 3 and 3.
Split the light three and add another 1 so it's 2 and 2.
Then weigh the last 2: 1 and 1 and there you have it.

3 times…
Weigh 5 and 5.
Split the light one three ways, put one away,and weigh the 2s. if one of those piles is lighter than the other one then you have to weigh that one one last time, if both piles are the same weight then the one coin you put away is the one!
Oz was so close!

I think a variation of this one was in professor layton and the curious village…
Here's the riddle that started all other riddles!

Legs:
In the morning it walks on four legs, at midday it walks on two legs and in the evening it walks on four legs. What is it?

The way:
While on your way to the castle of a great king that totally invited you you come across a fork in the road. next to the road is a little house wherein two brothers live. You know that one of the brothers always lies and the other brother always speaks the truth.
One of the brothers comes to the door.
You can only ask him one question, what question do you need to ask in order to find the road you need to travel?

Coin:
In an antiques store you find a coin that says: 32 Before Christ.
How old is this coin?

It's a me:
It's red and annoying, and not mario.

Well I already answered the first one. I assumed it was a typo :B

You can only ask him one question, what question do you need to ask in order to find the road you need to travel?

If you asked “Is left the way to the castle?”
Then you would have your answer. You never said they were twins so they should be perfectly distinguishable.

Coin:
In an antiques store you find a coin that says: 32 Before Christ.
How old is this coin?

Well it's definitely not BC. Otherwise it wouldn't say it on the coin. \_(O_o)_/

It's a me:
It's red and annoying, and not mario.

I stick by my original answer, as I doubt this is actually an old riddle!

Gonna drop this one post in here that will probably result in a flood of Chuck Norris facts.

If you have 5 dollars and Chuck Norris has 5 dollars, Chuck Norris will soon have 10 dollars and you will be a bloody mess.

Although if you only know one lies from a story, and thus don't know which is which, then shit, I give up.
