And a poorly-done riddle in the form of a poorly-done recipe.

Ingredients
Water, flour, perhaps a pinch of salt.
Strips of black and white, as long as Dad's done with it.

Steps
1. Around and around, layer upon layer.
2. Now a bit of color, if you please.
3. Dry it out.
4. And cut it open.
5. And fill it up.
6. And patch it up.
7. And string it up.
8. And bash it up.
9. And pick it up.
10. Rinse and repeat the same time next year.

What did we just do?
 
A bus driver was heading down a big long urban street
He went right past a stop sign, and it was real real real real neat

And then he turned left where there was a no left turn sign

Signs signs every where are signs breaking up the scenery and blocking our minds do this don't do that can't you read the signs

Then he went the wrong way on a one-way street, a fools bode
Then he went on the left side of the road .....past a cop oh no

Still - he didn't break any traffic laws -today
Tell me why and you will have a
- my big hooray!

Signs signs every where are signs breaking up the scenery and blocking our minds do this don't do that can't you read the signs

Read twice if necessary. This might help with the tune

Bam! Gil you got it right - he was walking. But today can only be today, today not yesterday or tomorrow
[emoji3]
 
Damn I forgot about the rhyme. Concentrating on the answer at the time. I thank you for time in considering my verse. I'll try and keep my answer terse. I rescind my previous view of the timeline agreeing swiftly his walking is just fine.
 
It may not be Fibonacci play
But at the end find two and a true to display
0123581347112358134711

Come one come all here is some distraction
This is a game of mind satisfaction
Or not [emoji18]

If that was cheesy and this riddle peasy
Continue the number sequence,
it is truly easy [emoji1]

Ps. Every riddle is easy once you know the answer... Says my dog Prancer

2358134711235813471123...
I think that's right.
 
But I think the leading zero in the initial sequence should not be there, as 0+1≠2.

Edit: Or it should be 011235...
 
My sequence does seem to have a flaw
Now that question on my mind will naw
Not sure why I put a zero in the first spot
I wasn't boozing or high on pot
To me it made sense at the time
Maybe it was just for rhyme
I think GillSwills was on my track
But AlphaOmega got it exact
 
Whew. I'll give it a shot[emoji4]
Probably get it wrong
But I do care not (a lie)

The answer is false, you are not lying
You answered the question on that I'm relying

Or another thought
True = You didn't hear from the cow
Or
False = You did
But to the stated question
here is my humble suggestion

The answer is random
Neither here nor there
You didn't answer the question
And I'm kind of a square[emoji1]

So maybe that makes the answer false
How does one live without a pulse?
 
Hahaha. There is still life in this thread!


I once was naked in an empty sealed room if not for three doors
There wasn't even a trapdoor disguised in the floor
Three doors do you say? The room is sealed in no way!
Ha, ha you fool
Doorknobs are your tool

But wait a minute I have not let you know this
Each door opened is a risk not to dismiss

Door one opens to 10,000F degree heat, so before you take a breath your lungs be afire; a smoky treat is not your desire

Door number two is filled with sneaky assassins in black. True Ninjas with invisible death star arrows true into to your back

Door number three you will experience three hungry man eating lions. They ain't ate in three months and that ain't no lying.

So what would you do in the situation to survive it?
Who ever answers it true; all others will get it

Door number one, two or three?
Take it from me
There is truly a correct answer
I verified it with my dog Prancer
(And he is never wrong
that's my true song)


Cheers
Dan
 
Death lurks all around
Which door should I choose

My brain is addled
Fogged from the booze

I'd walk through the fourth wall
Though I get the feeling

I'd be much better off
Climbing through the ceiling


:mug:
 
This is a hint to the riddle above
A little glint with riddling love

There are no Emperor Penguins, camels, frogs or rabbit hutch spiders in the riddle

What is the clue in these four creatures ,
Does that not make it simple?[emoji12]
 
Whew...

Last hint for this
Words from Genesis

"I'll bring some food for you, and after that you may continue your journey..."
 
A fool I am; that's nothing new
Let me please make it up to you
I made an error in the riddle word play
With it there this riddle might stay
But here I am to right my wrong
So listen please and play along ;)
The lions I described as hungry
It's wrong; mostly my dumb buggery
So with this question reading a little clearer
Bring forth the answer I'll next time drink less beer-ER [emoji12]
When trying to riddle with my broken fiddle

Cheers
Dan
 
I check this thread nightly in awaiting an answer
My little dog Dasher says wait for an advancer
Easy words for him to say
No not really, barking is his way [emoji10]
 
Well if a is e as in if

Door number three you will experience three hungry man eating lions. They ain't ate in three months and that ain't no lying.

be actually

Door number three you will experience three hungry men eating lions. They ain't ate in three months and that ain't no lying.

I'd open Door # three...

(or just stay at home in my room w/3 doors becaz I'm a farmer & well, uh, I gotta pea)
 
New Years all to the riddle thread
Shame on you if you think it dead
For your brains to get a little peaked
Let me give you a simple riddle tweak


Stronger than any beast,
,Rougher than any sea.
Steadier than a favorable wind,
and of me none shall be free


. My answer it might not be right
I'll give mine
the first person who gives me their insight

It's a fair commitment
For your heart do you extent it,
Son?!
 
Below I can go more than one hundred feet
Through earth, through rock, but my feet don't sink.
Nothing to do with this riddle though
Words got caught in a magic flow
Put a not line above the words before
Otherwise you'll go for the wrong door
Is this a riddle or just lousy rhyme
Probably both but so sublime
There is only one answer it will not vary
You're not picking out a pink canary
Put your mind to the question asked
And in peacefulness just chill, relax
Weirdest riddle I ever came up with
It's not a riddle to measure brain-width
Answer the question that I ask
It is a simple observance task
Who am I?
 
"Words got caught in a magic flow"
Gave me the answer to the question, though

Through the interwebs
The response I send
The simple answer is
"Be water, my friend."

My friend that truly is a good answer
Says I and my little dog Prancer
But not correct let me interject
Possibly I alluded wrong
I edited a little to my song
read it again, my friend
