Yes its the Riddle of the Sphinx

In Greek mythology, the Sphinx sat outside of Thebes and asked this riddle of all travelers who passed by. If the traveler failed to solve the riddle, then the Sphinx killed him/her. And if the traveler answered the riddle correctly, then the Sphinx would destroy herself.
Oedipus solved the riddle, and the Sphinx destroyed herself.

I studied this at school...... very inserting play actually. Its where Freud got his Oedipus theory

Don't know if you've this one but...

A woman shoots her husband.
Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes.
Finally, she hangs him.
But 5 minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together.
How can this be?

I've pretty much heard all of them or got them so far, except the yellow and smells like paint one!

I'm normally crap at riddles as well..

So the yellow and smells like paint one.. yellow paint??

Because she photoshoots him? As in.. takes a picture. Then takes it to the developing room, holds the picture under water and hangs it. :laugh:

Then they go for dinner.

I'm probably talking rubbish though... but it was worth a go!

She took a picture of him then developed the photo

Haha yeah, yellow paint. :tongue:

HINT: Most of mine don't take much brain power, they're always stupid. :whistle:

the dulux dog's p***.

OMG I'm getting all these riddles.

Normally takes me ages!

Most would have probably heard this, and if you have - don't say the secret of it :hugesmile: It's not so much a riddle....


Scenario...At her mother's funeral, a woman meets a guy and falls in love with him instantly. However, she never got his name, number or any other information about him. A few days later, the woman kills her sister.

Question...Why did she kill her sister?

Because she was a Danielle Lloyd fan?

Got it in one :wink:

Haha, but there is another answer... :tongue: Lmao.

I think somebody is using my thread to practice their comedy skills.

Please don't when it involves Danielle, and Lauren, don't encourage him. :wink:

But... :sad: Fiiiiiine then.

No you're right Lauren - this isn't a riddle. I think I have heard it before, so I know the answer (shocker. :hugesmile:)

You don't want me to say though, do you?

There is a pond,and right dead in the middle of this pond is a frog on an island .The nearest land is 4ft. away but all frogs can only leap 3ft.and this frog can`t swim .What can he do???

ermm... hmm....

Haha, well no-ones guessing so go ahead :hugesmile:

Oh and by the way, I chose the right answer, therefore I'm a psychopath :sad:

Jump on a lily pad? :puzzled: Lmao.

I think the answer is she killed her sister because she wanted to see if the guy she liked turned up at her sister's funeral as well!

Not possible for this particular frog.

Napoleone di Buonaparte

Is the frog dead?
