Riddles!
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?
Two people are born at the same moment, but they don't have the same birthdays.
How could this be?
@DarkWolf different locations maybe idk, this is tricky? Different locations or different tiime zones??
@peacefulSoul8
They are born in different time zones Good answer!
@DarkWolf I like the mother answer better.
You are awoken at 6 A.M. by a knock on your door. Your parents call you to let you know that they are there for breakfast. You are confused but quickly think of what food you have. You have bread, jam, butter, and eggs. What do you open first?
Nope! The bottle of anti-anxiety pills you keep on hand for when your parents come knocking!!! hahahahahaha!
When do you go at red, but stop at green?

@ladylazarus1971
Yes, that's the answer :D
@DarkWolf I probably wouldn't have thought of it so quickly, but the red/green post above had it in my head already. You had must be virtually STUFFED with riddles and wordplay. You have any room in there for anything else? lmao
There was a window cleaner who was cleaning a window on the 25th floor of a skyscraper. He suddenly slips and falls. He has no safety equipment and nothing to soften his fall, but he is not hurt at all. How can you explain this?
@DarkWolf
Was he cleaning the window on the inside of the building, and so he simply just fell onto the floor?
@adamabinta
Yes, that's it! You are starting to get way too good at these riddles
@DarkWolf
The more riddles I read and see the answers to, the more my brain starts to think in new ways. I am otherwise a very literal person and quite terrible at riddles. That's why I think these games are a good idea, because they are good at teaching lateral thinking.
@adamabinta
Yes, you start to think out-of-the-box, but after some time, most riddles become almost too easy then :P Anyway, there are loads out there. So I will continue trying to find some good ones, and I will probably throw some more rebuses in it too, since they can be good for that kind of thinking too :)
