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?
I join you in battle, fist clenched tight.
We pound three times with all our might.
If my rival decides he will sign for peace;
I'll crush him, and the fight will cease.
But if he lays his hand down flat;
I'll suffer defeat, that is that.
What am I?

Red it is, while in use.

The Stairs
@AmalieAnne
That's a good attempt.
What's your other answer? I'm curious to know
@blackSnowflake25
It was a building, it has many floors that goes up and down but it does not move
I went into the woods and got it, I sat down to seek it, I brought it home with me because I couldn't find it
What is it?
@blackSnowflake25 peace maybe?
@blackSnowflake25
@Morgan101900
Peace does seem to meake sense, but there's a better answer : Thorn/ splinter
@blackSnowflake25 splinter
@allnaturalNight50
That's right!
What do you fill with empty hands?

@allnaturalNight50

I live above a star, but I do not burn.
I have 11 friends, but they do not turn.
I am visited in sequence: never, once, or repeatedly.
My initials are PQRS.
Now tell me, what do I mean?
@blackSnowflake25 the 7 on a phone number pad thing
@allnaturalNight50
That is correct! Good job
6 ants were walking in a line, one behind the other. The first ant turns back, looks and says " There are 5 ants behind me". The second ant turns back, looks and says. " There are 4 ants behind me. " Similarly, the third ant says, " There are 3 ants behind me". The fourth and fifth also follow suit and say, " There are 2 ants behind me" and " There is 1 ant behind me" respectively.
But, the sixth ant turns back, looks and says, " There are 6 ants behind me."
How is this possible?
@blackSnowflake25 because all the ants from behind now follows on the sixth ant. plus its shadow? (forgive my answer)
@mikhaela
There's a much simpler reason to this, Mik. A cheeky one, too
@blackSnowflake25
There are only 6 ants.. and if there would be 6 ants behind another one.. that would make the total 7. Which is obviously impossible.. so.. he's lying?
@DarkWolf
Yes! That's correct
Good job, Wolf !
What has a neck but no head?
