I have a few riddles. I don't know if some of these have already been used or not, but I like them.

1. What has roots as nobody sees, is taller than trees, up it goes, yet never it grows.

spoiler:

A mountain


2. A man is lying dead in a cabin on a mountain, it is snowing outside. The cabin has only one door, it is locked and there is no one else for miles. The man lies next to a pool of water, how did he die?

spoiler:

He stabbed himself with an icicle


3. What do you never eat for breakfast?

spoiler:

Lunch and dinner


4. What runs but never walks, has a mouth but never talks, has a bed but never sleeps?

spoiler:

A river


I have one riddle that is quite famous via a computer game. It has many answers, but the trick was that the asker was hoping for the answer of the person answering; as in, they always answered what they thought she would answer.

What can change the nature of a man?

The "answer"?

spoiler:

"If there's one thing I've learnt; its that anything can change the nature of a man. Whether regret or love or revenge or fear. Whatever you believe can change the nature of a man, can."

There are 3 answers to this riddle,
War,
A large robot killing mahcine,
Time.


It is a hurter and a healer,
A teacher and a murderer,
There's too much when you don't want it,
and too little when you do.

spoiler:


Time, again.




Dragonman -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (10/10/2010 21:18:33)

Ok you are in a room with two doors one door has a giant dragon that will eat you and the other has a giant magnifing glass that will fry you from the rays of the sun how do you get out (I will post the answer when someone gets it right) congrats to superemo for guessing correctly

spoiler:

Wait until night than go through the magnifiyng glass door




Age100 -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (10/10/2010 21:23:58)

@Dragon: Politely ask the dragon to open the other door, because it has some ketchup in it.




Dragonman -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (10/10/2010 21:29:37)

@age:No
@ below: No!




Age100 -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (10/10/2010 21:33:14)

@Dragon: Mustard?




Superemo -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (10/10/2010 21:54:55)

spoiler:

Wait until night, then go through the magnifying glass door.




Dragonman -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (10/10/2010 21:56:45)

@Superemo: that was quick spoiler your response so others can guess it




Age100 -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (10/10/2010 22:10:52)

@Supremo: I still think mines made more sense. I mean, if you only have two doors, you probably don't have any windows. So why take the chance that it's sunny when you could just eliminate the dragon?




idkaname -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (10/13/2010 22:51:20)

@Age100's riddle
quote:

What has 4 legs in the morning, 2 in the afternoon, and 3 at night?


spoiler:

A person, In their early life(morning) they crawl on 4 legs(well 2 legs and 2 arms anyway) later in life (afternoon) they walk on two legs,
and finally at old age(night) they use a cane




Age100 -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (10/13/2010 23:08:21)

@idkaname: Wrong.
spoiler:

A baby. They start off with crawling with 4 legs, then you cut off his/her's legs and make it learn how to walk on two, then give it a cane to help it at night.

There once was a wizard who visited a tavern where a local woman worked, she annoyed the wizard with her constant yelling and complaining, so he transformed a woman into a Rose- When her husband came, begging to have her back, the Wizard replied that he would release the woman if the man could select her out of a garden of roses. The man looked all throughout the garden and finally settles on one- He picks it and the Wizard says that he chose correctly. How did the man know which rose was the correct one?

spoiler:

She was the one with the most thorns in the side.

twinArmageddons -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (10/25/2010 23:08:06)

Classic riddle, but with a twist. May be easy for some.

There are two doors. One door leads to freedom, the other leads to justice (flames). Standing in front one door is a guard who always tells the truth, in front the other is one who always lies. You have no idea which door is which, nor any idea which guard is which. You may ask ONLY ONE question to a SINGLE guard. What do you ask to pick the right door?


spoiler:

"What would the other person tell me if I asked him which door leads to freedom?" (No matter which guard you ask, always choose the door opposite to where he pointed)


The answer to this riddle is a very obvious one. I am easy to know, but some people never think of me. Others still think of me, but only because of the previous statement. What am I?

spoiler:

A very obvious answer




Age100 -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (10/25/2010 23:43:53)

Learned this one today, I was too lazy to think and the person just gave me an answer.

How do you make 100 out of 9999?




Episteme -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (10/25/2010 23:49:33)

quote:

How do you make 100 out of 9999?


By subtracting 9899? I wager there is some sort of a percentage type answer. [8|]


Moving on:

A man builds a house with all four windows facing south. A bear walks past the window. What color is the lawn gnome?
