This topic is about short riddles, because not everyone likes to do the larger logical puzzles. If you do like those, then click here.
If you've guessed the riddle, you can immediately post another one yourself. Let's keep it going.
I will start with this riddle:
What is easy to get into, but hard to get out of?
Made on a star, and blowing out flames. Prayer of heart, and a hope proclaimed. What am I?
@DarkWolf
Wish upon a falling star?🙄
@OldSerendipityBoat
Yes, it is a wish!
@DarkWolf (blowing out "flames" on the birthday cake😉)
You get me when you park in a place off limits.
I live in a swamp. I'm the one who ribbits.
@DarkWolf
This is a joke in fact, I heard it on tv😶, shhh 🤐, I zipped it and let others answer😊, 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.
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.
@thoughtfulPillow12 🐸 ribbit...ribbit...
I blacken your breath,
I spoil your grin,
I hunt in a pack,
And kill from within.
what am i?
@DarkWolf .cigarettes
@DarkWolf Cigarette! haha, I am pre-dental,.... easy!
Tjen it must be my pack of smokes again 😔yet they haven't killed me from within, kept me nice and "smoked" and preserved😂😂🚬
@OldSerendipityBoat
Sorry, forgot to reply to the riddle itself😶
@DarkWolf
@OldSerendipityBoat
Yes, you got it
@DarkWolf
Now I desrve a smoke😉😊
My first is a creature whose breeding is unclear. My second, a price you must pay. My whole can be found in the river of Time and refers to events of today.
@DarkWolf I like this one alot...
Seem to be several clues to this one I can't seem toake the first one fit so I'm not going to make a fool of myself by sneering it.
@lazyKatz
I'm not sure what went wrong with the spelling..... Sorry
@lazyKatz
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
I think it might be current.
@lazyKatz
Yes, it is current!
@DarkWolf
It gives me a thrill when I get one right.
@lazyKatz
That's why I liked it since I like currents😉, well done🤗😀😁❣
A bat and a ball cost $1.10. The bat costs one dollar more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?
@DarkWolf
Well, it sounds like the ball is 5 cents. But that was easy to work out, so I must be missing something.
@GCHJVB7978
You're not missing anything, it is 5 cents. It's just phrased to trick people into giving a wrong answer.
@DarkWolf ya got meeee
You do not want me to be permanent
But to avoid me is a mistake
You can let me help you
But precious time it will take
@DarkWolf
Vacation?
@DarkWolf
I feel like a lot of things would fit this description , as long as it is something beneficial but unpleasant, for example, school, doctor's visit.

@DarkWolf .therspist
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.
@DarkWolf Wow! This one's really good
You see me in water, but I never get wet.
What am I?
@AlexFox800
My reflection?...😊
@ButerfleeDreamer Yep!!
@AlexFox800
Yeeey🤗😀😁, I was also going to say Moon since the moon reflects in water😉😶...and gosh I like the moon...
@AlexFox800 (I hope your dog feels better...😶🤗😊)
@ButerfleeDreamer Thank you! He's getting there
@AlexFox800
I had confidence he will, nice treat game for him on Easter, creatively inventive fun😁
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...
@ButerfleeDreamer
Dorry it is not an odd number so that better suits 69 since you can change its orientation...
@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?
@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...
@GreyMirror also sign for pisces
@HappyHawk97
You aaaare sooo right to open up my closed mind, of course it is the horisontal sigh for pisces😀😀😀😁🤗
@GreyMirror i try... Lol. Also a pisces...
@ButerfleeDreamer
69 is the right answer
@DarkWolf
Yes it's 69
