Ayren wrote:This Topic is awesome! :o Alright here's the riddle.......

A man is on Death Row, the executioner says to him, "I'll give you a choice of how you can die" he then says, "You will say a statement, if the statement is true I will give you a lethal injection if the statement is false you will be electrocuted." What did the man say to the executioner that confused him so much that he had to let him go?


Can we still answer Ayren's riddle?

the man said said, "this statement is true" (at least that's what I would say)

Um Ayren did give the answer, silly people. Look at the bottom of page 8.

Yeah I suck at riddles. I would have said June too except I've seen that one before.

Or he could have told the executioner "God is real" and then the executioner would have to release him or else be suued over issues of separation of church and state. So yeah, post a new riddle!

Lol, ok. ~*looks around to see if EBM is anywhere.*~ 8-[ 8-[

Ok, The polic are called up to investigate a crime scene. When they enter the room, they find a man lying on the floor next to a table laying on it's side, and there are fifty-three bicycles scattered across the floor. The man had obviously been shot, seeing as there was a bullet in his forehead, but WHY had they shot him?

The answer is:

There was a bet made by two friends who were very drunk. One said that if the other could do bak flips over exactly 53 bicycles exactly, he'd give him a gun. The man successfuly flipped himself over them. The other man tried to give him the gun but it slipped and shot his friend in the head.

YOU KNOW I'M RIGHT. :wink: :lol: :roll:

I know the answer, or at least I think I do. I mean, I've heard this riddle before, so should I answer, or let someone figure it out?
