What did the blind man say as we walked by the fish market?

 

Donna Proctor

Good idea, Sydne. Now, I wish I knew riddles.

 

Sydne Archambault

9 Years Ago

Me too. I suck but I like to play....oh wait.....thats not a come on really, it came out wrong....oh boy!

 

Mario has begun the riddle thread with a somewhat ribald riddle (say that quickly, five times in a row)...so, the answer is likely to be, "Top of the mornin' to you, ladies!"

(I apologize...that answer - "Top of the mornin' to you, ladies!" - was a post edit, since the cringe factor caused me to stifle myself for a bit.)

 

Mario Carta

He said "good morning ladies"

you got it Patrick!hahaha

 

Donna Proctor

9 Years Ago

Hahahaa Sydne. ;)

So it seems, Patrick. And, having said it 5 times in a row, I sound like I'm speaking a foreign language. heh.

Gauche...

Mountainous Mystery
Before Mount Everest was discovered, what was the highest mountain in the world?

 

Mario Carta

9 Years Ago

Mount Everest,

 

Bob Galka

9 Years Ago

That is right... just because it hadn't been discovered it was still the highest

 

Sydne Archambault

9 Years Ago

Okay Mount Everest, it hadn't been discovered yet. Yeah was I close?
Calling it a night my friends!

A Black Cat

A black cat stepped out onto a black road where there were no street lights, and not even the faintest glimmer of light from the moon. A black car approached with its lights turned off, and yet the driver slowed down and allowed the cat to cross the road. How did he know the cat was there?

 

Mario Carta

9 Years Ago

The cat had a flash lite?

 

Mario Carta

9 Years Ago

or it was day time

 

Bob Galka

9 Years Ago

Yes..... Day time of course.. ;O)

 

Mario Carta

9 Years Ago

haha

 

Bob Galka

9 Years Ago

Not a riddle... but count the number of F's and post your answer


 

Mario Carta

9 Years Ago

4

 

Bob Galka

9 Years Ago

Mario... wrong and this is not a trick...

 

Mario Carta

9 Years Ago

5

 

Bob Galka

9 Years Ago

BUZZZZ wrong... but again this is not a trick...

 

Six. The brain tends to ignore the word, 'OF.'

 

Mario Carta

9 Years Ago

0 f's are letter not numbers

 

Mario Carta

9 Years Ago

ahhh

 

Bob Galka

9 Years Ago

YUP.. 6

it is thought to be because the F in OF sounds like a V OV

But has 4 legs like some of the animals

Edit.. it has 4 legs as all but one of the others.

 

Bob Galka

8 Years Ago

you don't think this is going to be obvious do you ;O)

 

Sydne Archambault

8 Years Ago

It wasn't obvious, but now I see the answer must be caterpillar, because it has more legs.

 

Bob Galka

8 Years Ago

Well no it ends with R like all but one of the others

 

Sydne Archambault

8 Years Ago

cat, and don't tell me it doesn't have a tail so it can't be cat!

 

Bob Galka

8 Years Ago

Cat begins with a C like all but one of the others

 

Ed Meredith

8 Years Ago

"Good job Ed!"

Sydne you meant Drew.. Drew and i get credit sometimes for each others posting... LOL

 

Sydne Archambault

8 Years Ago

No I meant you, because you got the sum, and Drew also because he got the combo. But it is funny how people mix you up, well you look so much alike you could be brothers! (;

 

Bob Galka

8 Years Ago

Yea they are both Yellow LOL

 

Sydne Archambault

8 Years Ago

Well yeah! Twins almost!

Okay then it is bear....wait are you giving me the business Mr. Bob?

 

Bob Galka

8 Years Ago

Bear ends in R like all but one of the others.... no there is a logical answer

The BEAR could be the odd one out because

IT DOES NOT BEGIN WITH C.
--------------------------------------------------------------
The CAT could be the odd one out because

IT DOES NOT END WITH R.
---------------------------------------------------------------
The CATERPILLAR could be the odd one out because

IT DOES NOT HAVE FOUR LEGS.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The CHAIR could be the odd one out because

IT IS NOT A MEMBER OF THE ANIMAL KINGDOM.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Therefore the COUGAR is the odd one out because

IT IS NEVER THE ODD ONE OUT.

 

Sydne Archambault

8 Years Ago

LOL! Logical.

Following words are meaningless. But if we add a few letters randomly on either sides, a meaningful dictionary word can be formed.

For example 'ogwo' can be changed into dogwood.

The words are:
ecalc
airb
roly
tibac
uidel
gorit
rosc
eyho

 

Bob Galka

8 Years Ago

pr-ecalc-ulus
h-airb-all
elect-roly-sis
an-tibac-terial
g-uidel-ine

 

Sydne Archambault

8 Years Ago

So far so good Bob. but precalculus is incorrect.

After this riddle I think I will close this one and start Riddles and Diddles 2, this one is becoming cumbersome to load....or is it my computer? Is that cool for everyone?

 

Ed Meredith

8 Years Ago

Yes good idea, start a new one...

 

Sydne Archambault

8 Years Ago

Thanks Drew....I mean Ed. (; Is it cumbersome for you to load as well?

 

Sydne Archambault

8 Years Ago

.
I know I dotted.

 

Patricia Strand

8 Years Ago

Yes, please. I like the word puzzles.

 

Ed Meredith

8 Years Ago

Yes it is... and the answer is; recalculate

 

Sydne Archambault

8 Years Ago

Bing, Bing and that is the word, recalculate!

 

Bob Galka

8 Years Ago

Aw.. I waz gyped... LOL

 

Bob Galka

8 Years Ago

so.. stop posting here.. right?

 

Sydne Archambault

8 Years Ago

There are more words, finish the riddle and we get the new thread, I think, instead of Riddles and Diddles 2, Riddles and Giggles 2, cause I have laughed out loud many times in this thread....but that is just me.

 
 
 

Sydne Archambault

8 Years Ago

I am closing this thread, refer to new thread, Riddles and Giggles 2. This has been a great thread and I thank all of you who have contributed to it! Thank you to the Riddle Man, Bob who thought it up.
