I turn polar bears white
and I will make you cry.
I make guys have to pee
and girls comb their hair.
I make celebrities look stupid
and normal people look like celebrities.
I turn pancakes brown
and make your champane bubble.
If you sqeeze me, I'll pop.
If you look at me, you'll pop.
Can you guess the riddle?

[e_h_b]

Hopefully no one has heard this before...

I can run but not walk. Wherever I go, thought follows close behind. What am I?

I'm still puzzling over this, hmm.

Hey Trypti!!

btw its a nose .



heres one..
Give me food, and I will live; give me water, and I will die. What am I?

[e_h_b]

Fire!

In case I'm right....

Of trees I am made,
But no plant am I.
Treasure I contain,
For the wise to spy.
Thought I provoke,
But don't take me for a soak!
What am I?

That would be paper, I believe. Now, allow me to take a bit to make up a new one.

Here:


Though dead I am mighty,
when to parchment I'm brought.
No minion, a pinion,
My blood becomes thought.

would it be a quill? If i'm right someone else can post a riddle, I'm no good at making them

It is indeed a quill. I would post another riddle except that I haven't been able to think of one yet.

Not quite a typical riddle, but it makes you think like one

You come to a trench that goes as far as you can see to either side. It is 50 feet deep, 50 feet wide, and there is *nothing* around to secure a rope to, yet all you have to get across with is an unlimited supply of rope. How do you get across?

OK, I don't know if this the real answer, but with an unlimited supply of rope, you could throw it down in the trench so it made a big ol' pile and then climb down the pile. Move it over or make another great big pile on the other side and climb up it.

Chew off your left leg and attach it to the bottom of the rope, throw it over and then try to hop across before it falls?

Well, if it's unlimited then you keep throwing rope into the trench until it fills up.

Considering its been more than a week since the creator posted im going to go ahead and pull out the old rusty riddle maker:

An endless cycle,
Twins like that of Hermes,
Snowmen's treasure
Finrod's Gift and
Aragorn's Heirloom


hmm definitely not as good as my first few but you can guess all the same

[LordRingz]

The Ring of Barahir, given to Barahir on the battlefields of the North by Finrod Felagund. Two snakes, one upholding while the other devours.

I forget the Snowman reference, did the Snowmen save it for Arvedui's heir?

I'm no good at making riddles, I'm only good at solving them! Someone who is better, please feel free!

Good Job, Arvedui gave the ring to the Lossoth for all the help that they had given him. The dunedain then bartered it from the Lossoth and held onto it until it was given to Aragorn

New riddle time!

From trees I am born
By machines I am formed
Through thought labored
In time delivered

From blankness to life
By pencil, pen, keyboard brought alive
Through poetry and prose illuminated
In fine words cumulated

What am I?
