I have a little poser that may just fit this thread.

Slippers? or Shoes?

Sorry Atelier.

I'll change it to " before you get into bed " Any easier?

one of my feet from the ground?

[Tinytim]

I thought that change would give it away.Selmiak is close enough:) It's feet off the floor.

Here's another one that may be a bit anglo for some.
There are four flies on a door, which one is; a)wet b)sick c)sticky d)angry.

[Renodox]

Light bulb is correct

[Tinytim]

Was it something I said?

[CaptainD]

Was it something I said?

Yes - I think it was when you said "There are four flies on a door, which one is; a)wet b)sick c)sticky d)angry." - and no-one had any idea about what the answer was!!

Um... maybe a small hint?  Dunno if it's "too Anglo"; I'm English but that's not helping with working it out.

[TheBitPriest]

I was trying to figure out an answer using the anatomy of a door ala Anglo lingo.

... but I'm either not creative enough to see how this fits together, or I'm just on the wrong track.

[Tinytim]

TheBitPriest is correct about the anatomy of a door but any clues would give the answer. I'll give you one answer but I don't see that it will help with the rest.
The answer to b) is " the one on the panel " It's an old term for being absent from work through sickness.

[TheBitPriest]

Was the angry fly "off the handle?"

[Tinytim]

TheBitPriest is correctomundo The one that fleww off the handle. I thought they were probably the hardest two. Any more guesses?

[Stupot]

was (a) the fly in the ointment?

[TheBitPriest]

I might guess that the sticky fly was "on the jamb," but that's relying only on the sound of the word.  Some people call the side of the door the "sticking."  I guess he could be there.  The wet one might be on the mullion.
