The Riddle thread

Savior2006 · Mar 10, 2013

Somebody make a riddle. Other people in the thread have to figure it out. The person who guesses correctly gets to make his/her own riddle for people to solve.

"I snip off the branches that grow in the class.
I turn the soft orbs into orbs of glass.

I pivot the world on a sluggish view.
I pivot the thoughts askew

The longer you're under, the less you see
You lie to yourself and say you need me

What am I?"

Some lines clue you in better than others. What makes a person's thought askew?

LOL, here's another clue. What kinds of things would make a person's perspective sluggish? Just make a big list.

drugs
yeast
denial
lies
deception
indulgences
boredom
tediousness
lack of sleep
mediocrity
drone-ing on and on and on...

The answer is alcohol, which falls under drugs. It kills brain cells with heavy abuse, and the brain and nervous system in many ways are like a branching tree. People who are "under" the addiction tend to be pretty myopic, ruining relationships in order to fulfill the addiction (the less you see). They convince themselves that they need the drug/booze when they really don't.

Make your riddle.

Not much of a poet, though I'm capable of making poems. If you want, you can Google search for riddles if you aren't comfortable making your own.

Here's another one just for fun.

I was lulled into my last sleep.
In the grip of a four-armed man.
(He made not a peep)
He was made from a man with twenty.
My head aches from stabbing fingers.
But I did not weep or cry.
And, in time, I emerged from beneath the solid rock sky.

What am I?

brinny · Mar 10, 2013

Savior2006 · Mar 10, 2013

a 4 armed man strangled somebody, they died, were buried, and rose from under a gravestone

(you should give classes to teach peoples to think outside the box)

LOL, it's Jesus Christ, of course.

Wait a minute, what's the 4 armed man? And what's the man with twenty?

Ok, now i get the stabbing fingers, and the solid rock sky...

The four armed man is the cross. The twenty armed man is the tree the cross was made from.

It's actually not too difficult. The idea for a really hard one is just to be as convoluted as possible. It's a cinch.

Savior2006 · Mar 13, 2013

Here's another very difficult one I learned today.

I am the beginning of eternity.
At the end of time and space.
At the beginning of every end.
And at the end of every place.

What am I?
