Bingo.
I knew I should have used the more confusing version.
You're thinking too literally

Nothing.
A headless man can write nothing.
A blind man can read nothing.
A mute man can say nothing.
A deaf man can hear nothing.
Bah.
I turn polar bears white
and I will make you cry.
I make guys have to pee
and girls comb their hair.
I make celebrities look stupid
and normal people look like celebrities.
I turn pancakes brown
and make your champane bubble.
If you sqeeze me, I'll pop.
If you look at me, you'll pop.
Can you solve this riddle?
My first thought was sunlight, or heat.. until I got to "squeeze me, and I pop"
Then I though about air pressure, but that doesn't make me pop if I look at it. Then I though of just "pressure" with it's multiple definitions, it could do the other things. But no pressure turns polar bears white... sunlight does.
Since the light is only thing that makes the clear fur of polar bears appear to be white, then "light" is the only possible answer. It must somehow apply to the other statements, but I just can't figure out how it pops if you squeeze it. Could you explain that, please?
My answer is light.
Well if you're just going to shut down and say every answer is wrong, then...
No
The answer for me is "no" I cannot solve the riddle. But, if that's right, then I just solved it, and the answer is "yes." :oops:
Well between you and Gnerph, the more straightforward ones don't pose a challenge, so I figured I'd try something sneakier.
Three guests check into a hotel room. The clerk says the bill is $30, so each guest pays $10. Later the clerk realizes the bill should only be $25. To rectify this, he gives the bellhop $5 to return to the guests. On the way to the room, the bellhop realizes that he cannot divide the money equally. As the guests didn?t know the total of the revised bill, the bellhop decides to just give each guest $1 and keep $2 for himself. Now that each of the guests has been given $1 back, each has paid $9, bringing the total paid to $27. The bellhop has $2. If the guests originally handed over $30, what happened to the remaining $1?
You are doing the math a bit wrong. They each paid 10 and got 1 back. So they have paid a total of $27.
$27 = $25 bill + $2 for belhop.
or
$30 paid = $25 bill + $2 bellhop + $3 refunded
There is no leftover $1.
"habit"?
I like "eyeball" or "brain" for the one Rota answered with "no". But then, I did sit next to eight-year-old boys at dinner.

Tough to argue with that one. But I will anyway.
It "hovers". ;o)
Alive without breath,
As cold as death;
Never thirsty, ever drinking,
All in mail never clinking
What am I?
Not sure what that is, just the only thing I can remember from the Hobbit. Here is another- What is broken every time it is spoken?
Silence I believe.
silence???
I suppose it could be either silence or a secret.
Silence is broken when someone speaks.
A secret is broken if someone speaks about it.

Let me give it a try: The person who makes it has no need for it. The person who purchases it does not use it. The person who does use it does not know he or she is. What is it?
Generally, I'd say a coffin.

you are trapped in a suzerians dungeon. this suzerian is very playful so you are expecting tricks and traps. you turn the corner and see 2 heavily armed swordsman. behind the swordsman are 2 doors. inbetween the 2 doors is a sign that says
"if you wish to leave this dungeon, you must pass through 1 of these 2 doors. one door leads to freedom, the other to certain death. you may ask each of the swordsman one question. that question must be the same for both of them. one of the swordsman will tell the truth and one will lie. you do not know which one is truthful and which one lies."
what question do you ask the swordsman that reveals without any doubt whatsoever which door is safe, and no you cannot fight them.
Classic riddle. ;)
You ask "If I asked the other swordsman which door will take me to freedom, what would he tell me?"
Let's assume the correct answer is the right door.
The lying swordsman will tell you his partner would say left.
The honest swordsman would tell you his partner will say left.
No matter what answer they give, the correct door is the other one.
right then i will get some more riddles.
heres one

Good point... edited, and fixed.
That one had me jotting all kinds of algebraic nonsense to find an equation that the first number could fit into, that would equal the second number. Then I realized what the connection was, and totally facepalmed myself.
The word seven has 5 letters in it.
The word six has 3 letters in it
The word eleven has 6 letters in it
The word nine has 4 letters in it
