which months have 28 days?
10 birds on a fence. a farmer shoots 3. how many are left?

February (except on leap years)
None, the rest flew away

  1. All of them do.
  2. 3

Nuse is right with #1 Ace is right with #2

The more of me there is, the less you see. What am I?

Oh I thought the 3 birds that were shot would be left behind?

Darkness?

Yeah, that’s it.

Okay, seems like we have little difficulty here, so try these:

  1. What’s in the middle of the Sea?
  2. What’s in the middle of The Sea? (and yes, these are two different riddles)
  3. The man who built me didn’t want me,
    the man who bought me didn’t use me,
    and the man who’s using me doesn’t know he’s using me.
    What am I?
  4. A train is doing 80 down the track when it approaches a turn. The train jumps off the track. The conductor orders everyone off the train. As he goes through checking everyone, one man falls off the bridge not 2 miles from the turn. The conductor notices that someone’s missing, checks the chart, and announces “________ is missing!”. Despite his multiple queries, no one seemed alarmed, and eventually the conductor gave it up as a lost cause. What was the guy’s name?
  5. A man is lying on the ground in a lovely field. The man is dead. There is a package nearby. It is obvious that this package would have saved his life. How did he die?

If you solve these, I have moar…

1 + 2: These riddles are too ambiguous to know for sure, but I’d say “e” or space (nothing) or water…

  1. Coffin

  2. No idea. Maybe Noah, as “Noah’s missing” could sound like “No-one’s missing”.

  3. Is the package an unopened parachute?

Wow. That…that was almost perfect.

For #4, the man’s name was Nobody.
EDIT: Okay, who messed with my sig again?

I don’t know who would name their child Nobody!
Also I don’t know what happened to your sig.

Well, I don’t either, but then again, I don’t know any talking coffins either.

Well, that’s good.

Here’s a tricky one:
Two trains are barreling down a track towards each other. One is going 80 mph, and the other is going 94 mph. Assuming that there is no reason to slow down, like tunnels or bends in the track, and they start 200 miles from each other, how long until the trains collide?

I know it’s probably a riddle, but I worked it out to 1 hour, 57 minutes and 23.5 seconds. (Assuming that the question was asked when they were 200 miles apart.)

That’s not the correct riddle answer, but props to you for working it out.

They won’t collide. They’re on different tracks.

Uuh…no. I implied one.

Approximately 1 hour 9 minutes?

Nope. That’s not even close.

You don’t know how far apart they are when they’re 80 an 94 mph. All you know is that when the trains started, they were 200 miles apart. Thus, this question lacks sufficient information to give an answer.
