This is a joke in fact, I heard it on tv๐Ÿ˜ถ, shhh ๐Ÿค, I zipped it and let others answer๐Ÿ˜Š, it's quite funny.

@DarkWolf

Oh crap.

I got this one.

I'm beside myself now.

Thank you Ol' Serendipity Boat for giving us all a chance.laugh

I mean, the second line is quite obvious; and then you just need to think of the alternative word.

When you park like a fool, you get towed; and the thing that ribbits is a toad.

Good guess, but there's a better answer. Especially if you look at the third clue.

That's ok, don't worry.

The first hint isn't very obvious, so maybe someone can guess it with the help of only the other hints too.

DarkWolf OP April 11th, 2020

A bat and a ball cost $1.10. The bat costs one dollar more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?

1 reply
GCHJVB7978 April 11th, 2020

@DarkWolf

Well, it sounds like the ball is 5 cents. But that was easy to work out, so I must be missing something.

DarkWolf OP April 11th, 2020

@GCHJVB7978

You're not missing anything, it is 5 cents. It's just phrased to trick people into giving a wrong answer.

thoughtfulPillow12 April 11th, 2020

@DarkWolf

I feel like a lot of things would fit this description cheeky, as long as it is something beneficial but unpleasant, for example, school, doctor's visit.

@thoughtfulPillow12 // @GCHJVB7978

You are right, many answers would fit this riddle pretty well. I do think the original answer is pretty striking, which is 'sleep'. But both of your answers were good too, so we'll move on yes

One hand behind, no foot beneath.
Always has jaws, sometimes has teeth.
Might lean left, might lean right.
Poke through the eyes to make it bite.
Though it bites, it never eats.
Seldom near blankets, often near sheets.

Number of renown and infamy,

I am an odd multiple of three.

Change my orientation and I may stay the same.

Each time I'm referenced, the responses do not change.

@DarkWolf

666...

GreyMirror April 14th, 2020

@ButerfleeDreamer

Dorry it is not an odd number so that better suits 69 since you can change its orientation...

1 reply
thoughtfulPillow12 April 14th, 2020

@ButerfleeDreamer

This is tough. There's still that "number of renown and infamy" part which seems to fit more for the 666.

Where is @DarkWolf though? crying

GreyMirror April 14th, 2020

@thoughtfulPillow12

Yeah but it is not an odd number but an even number and if you flip it is 999 not itself...

69 is a harmonious number image of the Asian Yin Yang concept with the black a d white...of opposites merging together in harmony...
