Post up some good riddles or those brain-teaser scenario questions

Here are some to start off

I sit in a corner and travel all over the world...

What am I?

spring showers bring mayflowers, what do mayflowers bring?
 
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 champagne bubble.

If you squeeze me, I'll pop.

If you look at me, you'll pop.

Can you guess the riddle?
 
Julien, dave and kevin go to check into a hotel. The hotel

manager tells them there is only one room left, costing $30. They

decide to share that room for $10 each person. Later, the manager

realizes the room is only $25. He calls the bell boy and tells him to

give the $5 back. The bell boy decides since you cannot divide $5 by

three people, he’ll take $2 for himself and return $1 to each person.

So each person paid $9 and the bell boy has $2. That is 9X3=27, plus

the bell boy's $2 is $29. Where is the extra dollar?
 
thats some trippy shit... im going to say that it needs to be $30-$5=$25.. so they three of them spent $25, plus $1 each, plus the $2 the other guy took.... that makes 30
 
no it's the wording that's confusing
so think about it as who gets what
so in the beginning, the hotel got 30 bucks and the bellboy got nothing
after, the bellboy took 2 of those dollars, so that's only 28 bucks for the hotel
he gives the 3 back so that's 25 bucks that the hotel gets, 2 for the bellboy, and 1 back for each guy
so you add that up and it's 25+1+1+1+2=30
basically the guys unknowingly tipped the bellboy 2 dollars
 
jon and jeff were fishing one night.
they caught a huge fish that pulled jon in and, then jeff died.
who killed jeff ?
 
the man who makes it doesn't want it. the man who wants it doesn't use it. the man who uses it doesn't know he's using it.

i actually figured this one out on my own, it's tricky
 
yea
the man who makes a coffin doesn't want it, why would he?
the person who buys it isn't gonna use it, people don't buy their own coffins so it would be for a relative or friend who's died
and the person who's using it won't know because they're dead, people aren't aware of what they're using when they're dead
 
What is the answer to this question?

A) Neither B nor C

B) None of the above

C) All of the above

D) Both B and C
 
A?

I tried making my own

It’s one out of 26, but there are many of them, all

different sizes. It can be spelled with 1 letter or 3 in two different ways. Most

are able to do it, but there are some that can’t. It’s also a sound, but can

sometimes be flat.

 
don't just guess.

The answer to your riddle is either C (see or sea) or T (tea or tee). I'm not sure which is a musical note, but I think its C.

 
how'd you beat me to that? i didnt even see your post. it cant be T..."some people cant T?"...come on now...
 
whats the answer to this? I'll be really surprised if there is an answer that genuinely fits with all of those.
 
Oh ok. fair enough, and it is T that is not a musical note.

That was a decent riddle to just come up with, im gonna try oen i think...
 
the other ones a nickel!!!

but wait, then whats 20 cents piece????

i heard something like this but it was 15 cents, in which case the other coin is a nickel, and one is a dime...
 
Whats greater than God
More evil than the Devil
The rich need it
The poor have it
And if you eat it you'll die?

+++Karma to whoever gets it
 
i know the answer to this, but only because ive heard it before, I'm going to let someone who has never heard it before try and figure it out, unless some other idiot who has heard it before comes along and spoils it.
 
it's actually 9x3=$27 for the room, but it only costs $25, so $27 - $25 = $2 extra dollars, which the bell boy kept
 
assuming you believe in the judeo-christian concept of god and the devil as the ultimate opposites on the morality scale, the answer should be nothing. if its not nothing, i dont know what it is.
 
it was posted after i made that post...... .... ....

anyway, yeah, nothing is the right answer to that one. I think that's such a good riddle
 
There are 6 birds sitting on a powerline, a hunter comes by and shoots one of the birds. How many are left on the line?
 
the answer to the polar bear question is "nope" and the person right below the original poster said it.

it isnt really a riddle, its more like a trick question. you were totally right in doubting that there is anything that fits the requirements of the question, i just didnt want to ruin it for you cause you were very close to getting it on your own and it frustrated me so much the first time i heard it i was impressed.
