Riddles

[Pedro-ologist]

grrrr I actually worked the answers out to both of those! why did you have to tell us the answers!

I've got a classic riddle - one of you will probably know it, if you do, don't just blurt it out please...let the people think!

You come up to 2 doors. One door leads to the ultimate Paradise, the other to the worst place ever imagined. You do not know which is which.

Next to the doors are 2 people. One of them always tells the truth and one of them always lies. You do not know which one tells the truth and which one lies.

You are permitted to ask ONE question of each of them so you can work out which door you should go through to find ultimate Paradise.

What question must you ask each of them so you can get to the ultimate paradice?

er....."where's the ultimate paradise?" i know that's probably not it, but mabye, by chance......

gah i hatethis riddle...its soo annoying... i've heard it so many times... i wont say the answer though. Let some one else figure it out

[stewie]

i'm stumped......how about where is the paradise to the liar and where isnt the paradise to the truthful guy?

[Rayray. M]

yuo dont know who is the liar and who is the truthfull one

[blondebaka]

Ask which door they would go through... Assuming they want paradise.

[navman]

you probably kill them both

[stewie]

i must know the answer! i give up!!!! whaaaaaa!
( what a horrible sport, you're probably thinking)
EDIT//: in the past hour, no one responded, so i cheated and asked my mom. *blush*
i think i'll wait until pedro types up the answer, since, afterall, he did post it.
meanwhile, i'll laugh at your agony of not knowing! mwahahahahah!
( now youre probably thinking about how i can be so evil! XD)

Ask which door they would go through... Assuming they want paradise.

nope thats wrong! haha one will always lie! and one will always tell the truth

[Pedro-ologist]

okay, here is the answer.

You ask each of them "If I asked the OTHER person which door led to the ultimate paridise what would they say?"

so lets say ultimate paridice is the door on the left.

the person who always tells the truth would say "The door on the right" and the person who always tells lies would say "The door on the right" so you go through the door on the left

[stewie]

thought so. my mom says that she heard it befoe, execpt with heaven and erm....the opposite. if that really happened to, me i'd just pick the left door and be done with, since i figured all my bad karma will get to me anyway. but, now i have it confirmed. heven/paradise here i come! that is, when i die.
does anyone know any others?

Bit of a long'un. xD

One day, a high-powered businesswoman hires a secratary. She required someone competent; however, she got Mrs. Gormless. After one day on the job, and one phone call, Mrs. Gormless was fired. FRom the phone call transcript, can you tell why Mrs. Gormless was -- finally -- revealed to be gormless, and was fired.

Dude: Hello, my name is Harp.
Mrs. Gormless: Harp? How do you spell that?
Dude: H for Hippo. A for Ant. R for Rhinocerous. P for -
Mrs. Gormless: I'm sorry; R for what?

Why was she fired?

Also, this is a little one, easy as heck...

"A slight inclination of the cranium is as adequate a a spasmodic movement of one optic to an equine quadruped utterly devoid of any visionary capacity."

Translate?

[stewie]

no idea for the answer....doesnt gomless mean stupid?

[gypolord]

was she fired because she couldn't spell harp?

and the translation is i think "a nod is the same as a blink to a blind horse"

[Pedro-ologist]

she was fired becuase she said "R for what?"

when knowing that R was for Rhinoserous was not necisary in the spelling of Harp. and she knew that the letter was R
