It was a baseball! In baseball, I'm told, you run home!

No.

I've heard Leo's last one, but slightly differently. I think I got to ask yes or no questions though. That seems to be common with the lateral thinking ones.

31 is right. You are the genius here as far as I'm concerned Warb. It's clear I'm not from this page alone, but I didn't know it or look it up. I assumed knowing the answer already and posting it would be cheating.

Jeez... I hope I got Warb's right.

Is it storm clouds Leo?

Oops!

The ocean?

-I guess I should mention I'm answering ender's now, not Leo's.

The sky?

-I just had one of those weird moments where I wasn't sure if I spelled "sky" correctly, or if it was even a real word.

Is Mitt Romney really a Merman?

Leo - Does your response to "nipple" mean the answer refers to the "flock of red sheep" itself, rather than the "I" that has them?

Here's one that's pretty easy without any maths. I certainly don't want to encourage any more of those type of "riddles".

A man was on his way home. He saw a masked man standing in his path holding something in his hand. He turned and ran back the way he came. What did the masked man have in his hand?

My fascination with Pripyat compelled me to watch Chernobyl Diaries despite knowing it wasn't filmed there. Pretty meh, but watchable. 6/10

Bah! Am I Santa Claus?

:P

This is a basic maths riddle that baffled me for years when I was young (my mum would never tell me the answer):

A woman selling eggs stops at a house, where the occupant says "I'll have half your eggs, plus half an egg, and I don't want any broken ones". She stops at another 4 houses where the request is the same: "I'll have half your eggs plus half an egg, and I don't want any broken ones". After the fifth house, she has sold all her eggs and not sold any broken ones. How many eggs did she start with?

Pimples?

I was thinking the flock of red sheep was the areola. But it was definitely a stretch.

I have a flock of red sheep.
When they cry, they all weep.

 

A nipple?

for the record, I did not create this, I just found it on the web, and thought it was a good one.

 

What does man love more than life,
Fear more than death or mortal strife.
What the poor have, the rich require,
and what contented men desire.
What the miser spends and the spendthrift saves,
And all men carry to their graves?

Nothing.

Empires are built at my mercy
And in my rage they flee in a hurry
I am consumed, yet I can devour
I bring thunder when you feel my power
I am Heaven's vein to whom men pray
Yet I can bring you to the gates of Hell where Cerberus stays

Rain.

Can I have your watch when you are dead?

You cut my head without staining me red,
then cry over me when I am dead.

Flowers.

I nearly said "news" instead of rumour... would that have counted?

Cheer up T.

Damn I'm getting old. Someone asked me what super power I would choose the other day and I picked "the power to switch off my hearing".

Why can't we do this anyway? You can shut your damn eyes, why can't you shut your ears? I would totally go for some kind of audio line-in modification.

Is it a rumour?

He's pretty happy with this one. It's got his name on.
