Anybody up for a riddle?

[Dan]

Late to reply
I’ll blame work and a stye


This riddle is going to be cheesy
That’s not a clue to make it easy
When I was a sailor man
I saw a boat filled with people
And then I looked once again
There was not a single person on board
Could they all have fallen on top of their swords
What did I see
Please tell me

The disappearance isnt scary,
All the people were married.
No need to mingle
Not one was single.

 

[Dan]

You got that right Jack
Jaymosbeershack
The next one is yours
What’s your plan of attack [emoji3]

 

[jaymosbeershack]

If someone else would like to tyou ke the next turn, feel free. I am better at answering that riddling.

 

[Dan]

I feel the same way at many times.

 

[AZCoolerBrewer]

Three old fashioned bulbs for light
Three switches out of view turn them bright
The switches are all outside the room
You have one chance to divine to whom
Which switch goes to what bulb to thwart the gloom.

 

[FatDragon]

Turn one on for minutes: ten.
Flip it off and don't stop then.
Turn on another and enter the room
And you'll find which switch flips whom.
One switch on, one light on.
Two dark bulbs that aren't turned on.
Touch the bulbs; one is hot.
Now you know the answer you sought.

 

[AZCoolerBrewer]

That’s just great.
You’re a real riddle snatcher.
Don’t be late
With the next head scratcher.

 

[FatDragon]

If you're wise, you'll try to keep me.
If economical, you might drive me.
You always want your shoes to do me.
And if your answer doesn't do me, then
I'd suggest you better try again.

Break

Not going to riddle today. Want to tell you about my day

I was bird watching down by a mountain stream earlier today

On the stream I saw a fly swimming and under the fly there was a fish

The fish thought; if this fly goes down six more inches I’ll carch him and eat him

A bear was behind them sitting on the edge of the creek. He says,if the fly goes down six inches and fish comes up to eat him..I’ll eat the fish

Behind the bear stood a hunter
He said, if the fly goes down 6 inches, the fish eats the fly, the bear eats the fish,I’ll shoot the bear

Behind the hunter is a mouse. The mouse says

If the fly goes down six inches, the fish eats the the fly the bear eats the fish and the hunter shoots the bear then I’ll run and startle the hunter

The hunter will drop his Sandwich and I’ll eat it

Behind the mouse there was a cat
The cat thinks

If the fly goes down six inches
The fish eats the fly
The bear eats the fish
The hunter shoots the bear
The mouse eats the sand which and I eat the mouse

So the cat makes a big leap for the mouse but misses and lands in the water

So what is the moral of the story?

When the fly goes down six inches the pussy gets wet

 

[Dan]

If you're wise, you'll try to keep me.
If economical, you might drive me.
You always want your shoes to do me.
And if your answer doesn't do me, then
I'd suggest you better try again.

Time time is our friend and enemy
Probably wrong answer, my stupidity

 

[FatDragon]

I'm afraid you're off the mark.
But try again, don't leave us in the dark.

And if your answer doesn't do me, then

Your fine riddle is tough
And i found the solution rough
I believe the solution is a deal
If I am right the bells will peal

 

[FatDragon]

I don't mean to come off sounding gruff,
My appreciation for your guess is real,
But this time 'round you haven't got the stuff.
The answer to the riddle is not 'deal'.

 

[Dan]

In not ignoring FatDragon your riddle
Still rolling it in my head while playing my fiddle

 

[FatDragon]

To keep the train rolling, I offer up a hint:
Three letters, none the same, just one a vowel,
Noun, adjective, and verb, none will come up foul.
Perhaps with those few clues you'll find out what is meant.

 

[Dan]

I’m going to give this one another go
Please forgive I probably have it wrong bro
Now I forgot what I was going to say

Oh ya

 

[Dan]

I have a one word answer
Makes no since says my dog Prancer
Now,? Is the time I give my answer

 

[Dan]

And I do know the above post is not right. I try to solve riddles it keep my mind bright
I don’t always lose and do sometimes win
That is me; how I am

 

[Gnomebrewer]

"Fit" fits the bill, once I found it was a car
A 'Jazz' it is called, in this land of afar
A small Honda car, won't cost much to run
Maybe the answer to this bit of fun

 

[FatDragon]

@Gnomebrewer, you've got it!
The answer to this riddle: Fit.
Since you've dug us out of this pit
It's time for us to match your wit.

Random numbers I think not
This question is a rhyme riddle. And is not a math plot

When, what, and where is sometimes useful
Sometimes that info will not make you a fool.

Some riddles are ridiculously unclear
This is truly one of them my friends here

It will take some history to know
And with it your awareness might grow

So I put forward these numbers again
I do so with a smile and a little chagrin

Hello there Riddle Thread here you go
Let’s get silly and let our minds grow



Cheers!

[Dan]

By the way if you figure the answer
You must rhyme answer for my fallen dog Dasher

 

[GilSwillBasementBrews]

I’m not good at rhyming, so not sure what to say, are you perhaps searching for Fathers Day?

 

[Dan]

No Gil it’s not Father’s Day
But the numbers are In June like you say
To others these are just arbitrary numbers
But not for
Me. I wasn’t a slumber

Mix the sanitizer and prepare that weizen, there's an anniversary on the horizon!
Lets raise a glass from coast to coast, a decade has passed with our diligent host!
Thousands of entries over thousands of days, a dedication most worthy of praise.
For most OP's would have abandoned in time, except for Dan, a purveyor of rhyme.

 

[Dan]

Mr Vern your your detective skills and rhyme answer

So my salutations and congratulations go to Mister Vern

There was a little window I could see out
And what I saw without a shadow of doubt
An emperor penguin standing royal and stout!

But I walked out of this old wooden hut And was surrounded by white crystalline fog
A short distance away I saw a tied up dead dog

I looked above to the bright bright blue sky
A view made only by God and one you can’t buy

The sun above didn’t go east to west
But around in a circle and never sets

To help with the answer you might ask Scott
I tell you the truth a distraction that’s not

To the riddle there’s four questions to answer
So says my little fallen dog Dasher

Where?
It’s a land that isn’t always nice
A warm day just starts to melt ice

When?
Why does the sun not set but circle around. Does this have a familiar sound?

Specifically Where?
What’s with this dead dog, wood structure and cold fog?
give you a clue tHat could go utterly wrong

Who?
There are fewer and fewer OAEs
I am truly one oh don’t you see

Cheers!
Dan

 

[Dan]

Side note. I did a quick google search for OAE in case you were thinking about that
Booh boo please don’t yet hang up your hat

I’m not a teacher or medical test


Google doesnt always work,
real research is best. (That’s a hint)
