Default Riddles

Post all your riddles in here, i love them.

Here is one i [surprisingly] didn't get. It's pretty easy though so only the dim ones won't get it.

Picture a square. Each with 4 sides, as they do. All the sides are the same length. A man walks around the square and it takes him 1 hour and 20 minutes to walk down each side except for one which took him 80 minutes. Why did it take him 1 hour and 20 mins to walk the other 3 but only 80 minutes for the other one?

He walks at the same speed, he doesn't magically develop wings nor does he get on a bus etc, etc.

(this one isn't as good to explain in writing, better when you draw it)

For Legend's original one:

Because 80 minutes is the same as 1 hour and 20 minutes?

A man. It's greek saying or something. Oedipus I think. A man crawls as a baby, walks as a man and walks with a stick when old. The morning, noon and evening are metaphors for ages.

Am I right?

I've heard of this one before, so I won't say the answer
It's pretty hard, I think.

I've just googled it and it didn't come up. Are you casting doubts on my morality?
