Um.. You don't measure paper in numbers. Plus, this leads to me thinking why you eat paper...?

Lol its so simple i wanna see how long it takes for you guys to guess


RE: Riddles! - Wildt4lon - 04-27-2013 07:11 AM

Okay, heres a riddle that makes more sense

I don't have lungs but i need air
I don't have a mouth but i eat away
I don't have venom but i can kill
I don't have limbs but i can move in any direction
I can make water but water kills me
I can come in all sorts of colors
I can dance around as long as i am fed
I can give you comfort as long as i am under control
I grow and die and come to life
Your life might depend on me, or your death

What am i?

Fire.

Ooooh very good. Lets have less hints now.

I come in multiple colors
I can engulf you completely
I have a great potential
I can be deadly to your enemies
But at my expense you might fall instead
What am i?

My first reaction was 'skin' - but I don't get how that I could fall at its expense...

Anyway, I wanted to post this one - it's less of a riddle and even though you might moan at the beginning of it you should read it entirely and then complain ;-)

The mother is 21 years older than the daughter. In 6 years, the mother will be 5 times as old as the daughter.
Where is the father?


And yes, this can be solved.

he ran away cause the mother got pregnant with the daughter

*Warning* Sexual content...

Well.. the math gives me this:
Mother = 20.25 (20 years and 3 months)
Daughter = -.75 (-9 months)

So, um, the father is currently having sex with the mother to conceive said daughter. (Given that the typical pregnancy will last 9 months.)

If you're wondering, there are two equations and two unknowns. So, just make two equations, solve for an unknown, then plug it into the other.
M - 21 = D
and
(M + 6) = (D + 6) * 5
