#1 seems to be DEAD. Am I right?

Stupot · Fri 12/07/2013 22:48:57

3 is a farrier

#1 is wrong it's chansey but not deadly. #3 is right.

Just to let the new players know. This thread is also for posting your own riddles up. They aren't just for me to post up mine.

A simple riddle with multiple possible answers.

What has an eye, but can't see?

Stupot · Sun 14/07/2013 08:58:06

A storm, a needle... errrm... someone with his eyes closed?

mkennedy · Sun 14/07/2013 15:29:52

Those all work, but the last one is kind of iffy. Actually I was thinking more hurricane than storm, but it's close enough.

1. (4 letter word)
You can count on them, though
Some would rather curse them.
You can speak dear to them,
Though we all know 'tis just in vain.

Spoiler

Gods?

Glad you took the gamble but no it's not gods.

I was thinking that it was a little ostentatious a claim for a riddle to make.

Here's a riddle / joke from some place.

Why should you never commit a crime on the farm?

Harvester · Sat 20/07/2013 10:55:58

Because the farmer will rape you and shoot you? (not necessarily in that order)

Renodox · Sun 21/07/2013 20:07:38

Because the Potatoes have eyes, the corn has ears and the beanstalk (beans talk).

Renal Shutdown · Mon 22/07/2013 01:09:48

2. Bets.

Renodox · Mon 22/07/2013 05:00:54

Your answer is closer to number 1 but still doesn't answer it. You need to branch out a bit more for #2.

That's correct! (Though I didn't know about the talking beans part of the riddle)

Self.

You can count on yourself. Some people curse themselves, and speaking dearly of oneself is vain. And in vain, too, since you already know what you're going to say.

Sorry, but you'll have to try another roll at it.

CaptainD · Wed 24/07/2013 08:39:26

For 1 I would say LIFE, though the reference to "them" infers that it could be a plural?

Stupot · Wed 24/07/2013 09:33:15

Idol?
