1. A cake and a pie are on a raft in the middle of a shark-infested ocean. Suddenly, the raft begins to sink. Who gets saved?
2. A panda reads a book about a Pandas Lifestyle. Upon finishing, he walks into a bar, and orders a burger. After finishing his meal, he shoots the bartender, and leaves. When in court, he says he was simply doing what the Panda Lifestyle book told him Pandas do. What did the book say that could justify what the Panda did?

Solve this riddle:
Suppose you have a cube, and you try to make it a circle by chopping perfectly uniform and straight sections off of the corners, all perfectly centered.
How long do you suppose it would take to chop off all the corners this way to make a sphere?
You would never have a sphere.Quote:

THis is a trick question this is what happened last time i tried to answer it and it was the closest answer.Quote:

I edited my above post with some riddles into it, take a look. :p
As ingenious as the answer may be, it in no way resembles a sphere...Quote:

If three cats catch three mice in three minutes how many cats would be needed to catch 100 mice in 100 minutes?
There are three switches downstairs. Each corresponds to one of the three light bulbs in the attic. You can turn the switches on and off and leave them in any position.
How would you identify which switch corresponds to which light bulb, if you are only allowed one trip upstairs?
throw all switches to the on position one at a time with a 1 minute increment between them, then check each bulb, the hottest bulb corresponds to the last switch you turned off and the cooldest bulb being the first switch you turned off leaving the last bulb as the 2nd switch you turned off.:cheer:Quote:

3. Walk upstairs and check which of the unlit lights is warm.
That will be the first switch, the lit bulb is the second switch and the cold bulb is the third switch.
Aww I was close :( I thought i had it for sure though, But I'll take half credit :D
Any mores?
The correct answer is: AMERICA.Quote:

What am I?
If three cats catch three mice in three minutes how many cats would be needed to catch 100 mice in 100 minutes?
^ I still have no takers on mine...
There is 7 fat chicks in my car. 2 fall out. 1 loses weight. 4 jump out, and 75% of them jump back in. 3 more run out to get ice cream. 33% come back. How many fat chicks are left in my car?
100 cats? Maybe??Quote:

Edit: My answer is wrong, I knew it as soon as I hit "submit." (feels foolish) :o
You have one in your car.Quote:

The same three cats would do. Since these three cats are averaging one mouse per minute given 100 minutes the cats could catch 100 mice.
Shoulda used your calculator on mine not crips as the answers to crips is easy its a trick question crip dont roll with fat chicks;)
Three cats catching 3 mice in 3 minutes means that each cat takes three minutes to catch one mouse. So, you would need a 4th to get under the 100 minute limit. :pQuote:

I was going to say 3 cats because it's about averages. If it takes 3 minutes for 3 cats to catch 3 mice, then it will take the same 3 cats 6 minutes to catch 6 mice and so on, up to the same 3 cats take 100 minutes to catch 100 mice.
You have two buckets, one has 5 litres of red wine in it and the other one has 5 litres of white wine in it. (1 litre ~ 1 quart)
You tip 2.5 litres of the bucket of red wine into the bucket of white wine and then mix it well, then you tip 2.5 litres of the bucket of white wine back into the bucket of red wine and mix it well.
How much red wine do you have in each bucket?
HOly Catz!!! Im never posting a riddle again in here i thought i had it understood and thought out well, now as per usual when Rota shows up IR DUMB again. I quit puzzle thread and now I know that i just need to put riddles in the Stump Rota section of "The Cult Of Rota" and keep my embarrassment private to 15-20 ppl not a quarter million...:o
I still thought it was a good effort...
I thought this too but now im not sure anymoreQuote:

Please solve x.
On the Catz riddle: We are assuming that said cats can keep up this rate for 100 minutes, when everone knows that they would take a good long nap in between.
x > 8.59Quote:

Or they would each catch one mouse and play with it for the whole 100 minutes, rather than catch another. :DQuote:

Well, obviously, three cats can catch a mouse per minute. Since the second part is on the same par, you would still only need 3 cats.Quote:

Wouldn't you have no red wine at all?
You would have two buckets of Rose blend.
The e in "rose" needs an accent mark, but I can't type those in these forums. It's pronounced (ro-say)
TO AXER;RODRI;ROTA; and ARU
I present these simple riddles:
"
- At night they come without being fetched, And by day they are lost without being stolen."
- "I never was, am always to be, No one ever saw me, nor ever will And yet I am the confidence of all To live and breathe on this terrestrial ball."*
- "The beginning of eternity The end of time and space The beginning of every end, And the end of every place."
- What lives on its own substance and dies when it devours itself?
- A farmer combined 2 compost heaps with 3 others. How many compost heaps does he have?
Rota is sort of right.
Once you mix that much red wine with white wine you don't have any white wine left any more, so you now have 5 litres of a red wine blend in each bucket. (or Rose, if you prefer, but with a higher % of red than most Rose)
