Oh the irony

Coolio · 2011-10-08 17:51:50

Okay, since you obviously can't figure these out...

A bored musician had music-block (0.o I guess that's what it is) when he looked out his window and saw something. He suddenly got inspiration. What did he see? It was something people see everyday.
He saw crows on electrical wires. The birds respresented the notes on a staff.

A fly flew into a girl's ear. After asking hundreds of specialists, they still had no idea how to get it out. Suddenly, the mother had an idea from a walk outside. What did she think of and why?
The mom went on a night walk. She saw moths flitting about the street lights. She put the girl in a dark room and turned on a flashlight. The fly flew right out.

You are in a single room. Your only chance to escape is ot find a real flower in a case of fake flowers. You get to make one move. Then you wait. And wiat until the answer comes. This is your only chance of escape. How do you find the real flower?
Your move? Open a window. A bee flies in, and lands on the real flower.

Hmm, first one not necessarily everyone see, tough one.
Second, I like that one, it is creative.
Third, will not necessarily work, they go more by color, but I like that one.

1. I haven't seen any birds sitting on electrical wires in so long. That doesn't make sense either.

2. Wow, nice.

3. Couldn't you just sniff them?

a3person · 2011-10-09 18:44:32

I haven't seen electric wires in a while, thought, I don't look up when there are some. When I look up I see clouds (and possibly a bird (or dragon can't be too sure).

Coolio · 2011-10-10 15:01:00

1. Okay, I should've said in suburban areas. I see them everyday.
2. I really liked that one too.
3. You get one move. One sniff will not tell you which one.

Slawthe · 2011-10-10 15:14:57

So you either get lucky that a bee will come in or you summon it?

More riddles plox? Ones that can be solved without needing hints like these ones or give hints if they do?

Coolio · 2011-10-10 17:50:38

Oh plz. Obviously the bee comes in because it smells you and wants to find the source of that HIDEOUS smell.

OKAY... let me consult my book. I'll post more in a sec..

Muffin · 2011-10-11 08:01:34

^Seems you've forgotten.

And what if this said bee never comes?

ultrasuperdude · 2011-10-11 20:34:20

I would not have thought of those for a long time

5 fail: ( this might have been used already ) Imagine you are in a room with ceilings caving you in. You are tied up to a chair, blindfolded, mouth covered, no technology. The chair is connected to the floor and it is strong. How do you get out?

You stay underneath the chair?

Coolio · 2011-10-12 15:42:35

Oops, sorry I didn't have much left in the book. It's small.

30 fails: Two twins were born two days apart. How?
10 fails: Name three consecutive days without using the words Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday.

OKay this one

It has roots that no one sees
It is higher than every tree
It stands up in the sky
But never grows taller

anobody knows?

Slawthe · 2011-10-12 17:35:32

30: Two twins from different families.

10: Yesterday, today, tomorrow.

OKay: The almighty creator of all?

cantfailLOL · 2011-10-12 18:02:34

No wrong

Slawthe · 2011-10-12 18:20:50

*Looks at sig for inspiration*

Oh hey that volcano is in the sky. Mountain?

Coolio · 2011-10-12 19:39:56

I'll give Slawthe the 10, give him half on the 30, and rephrase the 30 question.

Two twins from the same mother were born two days apart. How?

Slawthe · 2011-10-12 20:13:54

Physical predicaments such as this http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/artic … thday.html

Hmm...if it were one day I would say it was near midnight for the first one. Oh maybe similar setup as before, kind of. A year and two days later she was in labor and gave birth to another set of twins.

Yepp it is a mountain

ultrasuperdude · 2011-10-14 15:23:33

No one anserwed mine yet so it's raising to 3 fails.

For coolio's:

Easy 1 twin is 2 people so 1 of the twins was born 1 day and 2 days later another group of twins were born

Slawthe · 2011-10-14 16:14:10

Uhm ultrasuperdude...you know it takes 9 months for development right?

Also I answered but I guess you didn't see it. "You stay underneath the chair?"

ultrasuperdude · 2011-10-14 22:17:20

^ Wrong
raised to 5 fails

Another try for collio's: 4 kids came out 2 twins?

Coolio · 2011-10-15 20:04:28

Oops, no.

30 fails: A master forger copied a 100 dollar bill. His watermark, printing and paper were all perfect. Yet, he was still caught. How did they know?

This may be the closest anyone's gonna get on this. I'll release the answer tomorrow.

All avaalable questions:
30 fails: A master forger copied a 100 dollar bill. His watermark, printing and paper were all perfect. Yet, he was still caught. How did they know?
30 fails: half a pot was green beans, the other half was red beans. You were able to sort them all out by grabbing one with each hand. How?
30 fails: You have 9 peaches. Yet you must split them between 13 friends. You get 5 cuts with a knife. The pieces must all be equal. How do you split them?
30 fails: A farmer sold his 8 goats for 80 dollars. Then he bought 8 goats for 80 dollars. Why did he do this?
20 fails: Add something to nine to make it six. (No, you're not adding negatives)
25 fails: There is a book. Balance the book on the corner of a table with 2/3 over the side.
10 fails: Take four nines to make 100.
15 fails: In the park, how much corn can a monkey get and peel in 5 minutes?
15 fails: Someone asks you to nod up and down, and up, and down... You do as they say. Why?
20 fails: A person was trying to shoot hats with a gun. He made it everytime, however he was blindfolded. (No, the blindfold was not see-through, no he did not memorize the placement of the hats.) He was spun around 5 times before shooting. How'd he shoot the hat?
15 fails: An old man spent the entire day cleaning his table with a rag. There was color on his rag, but the color on the table would not come off. Why? (Yes, the color on the table was completely removable.)

As you can see, I'm being generous today.

Slawthe · 2011-10-17 14:31:16

1st 30: Wrong president I suppose
2nd 30: there was only one of each? This needs more explanation
3rd 30: ?
4th 30: 8 males for 4 males and 4 females
1st 20: ?
1st 25: ?
1st 10: 4 9's from 136 to make 100

2nd 20: hat on his head
3rd 15: stain needs bleach
