Hey, I couldn't find any other topics like this. We should have a riddle topic. Anyone can make a riddle. Start posting. I guess I'll start: Whoever buys it doesn't use it. Whoever makes it, makes it to sell. Whoever uses it doesn't know they are. What am I? It's not very hard, but I had to start with something. Posts: 22 | Registered: Tuesday, March 1 2005 08:00 |

You know, if you have a prepaid funeral plan, it's entirely possible to buy a coffin for yourself. -------------------- My BoE Page Bandwagons are fun! Roots Hunted! Posts: 9973 | Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00 |

And if you're a coffin maker, I don't see why you wouldn't make yourself a coffin. Maybe a really fancy one with extra nails or something! —Alorael, who thinks this may be looking for too much reality in a riddle. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

There might be more than one answer to this. I thought it up myself, and any relation to another riddle is purely coincidence: I am always around you. You cannot run from me and you cannot hide from me. You can't do anything without me. You need me, and I will be there. But eventually, I will be your doom. What am I? It's kind of hard, isn't it? -------------------- *Blue screen error* NONEXISTANT WINDOWS ERROR Windows detects no current errors, so Windows has decided to screw around with the files until one occurs.

Up until the doom part, I was going to say air. Is it air? -------------------- —Zxquez Zolohahni I eat blueberries in pie square. Xerch'de/Rate. I miss you, but I haven't met you yet. So special, but it hasn't happened yet. Posts: 549 | Registered: Thursday, October 17 2002 07:00 |

Is it air? I guess the part about the doom would be running out of air (as in stop breathing)? Edit: You should at least tell us if we're right or wrong, and we can have more than one riddle going at a time.

No, it is not air. Air is not always there. Close, but no triple fudge brownie sundae. Let the confusion commence!

Is it something like your brain or heart or some necessary body part that will eventually die? Or is it supposed to be some supernatural answer like God? [ Saturday, March 26, 2005 17:40: Message edited by: CJVonex ] Posts: 22 | Registered: Tuesday, March 1 2005 08:00 |

There are 2 twins. One celebrated his birthday 2 days before the other. How is this possible? Here's another: A man is vacationing in South America near the Amazon. He starts peeling potatoes, but gets a cut. He then puts his finger in water for 30 seconds and the cut disappears. How did this happen?

1) They're not twins with one another. 2) They separate things to make each twin feel special. Or, less feasibly... 3) The mother went in the guinness book of world records for worst two days ever. EDIT: For the other one... 1) The man's finger with the cut was bitten off by a pirrhana. 2) The blood washed away, making the cut virtually invisible. Or, less feasibly... 3) Magic.

They're born just before and just after midnight between February 28 and March 1. On a leap year, their birthdays are two days apart. —Alorael, who has no idea on the second one. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

You did not dictate that these things were cause and effect. After he put his finger in water for 30 seconds, he removed it and bandaged the cut as one is supposed to. In a few days, the cut had, in fact, disappeared permanently. Posts: 3234 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

Ok, fine... Revised: A man is vacationing in South America near the Amazon. He starts peeling potatoes, but gets a cut. He then puts his finger in water for 30 seconds and when he takes his finger out of the water he finds that the cut has dissapeared. How did this happen? Edit: I don't know who...
