I have two weirder ones. The first one is about time travel, and the second one involves a little math, but I love it because the answer's so wacky.

A time traveler is standing between two gates. Gate One takes him 12 hours into the future, and Gate Two takes him 24 hours into the past. He stays where he is for twelve hours, and then walks through Gate One. After another twelve hours, he walks through Gate Two. How long does the time traveler live?

You go to the store and buy 100 pounds of cucumbers. They are 99% water. You let them sit for a few days, and they dry out to 98% water. How much do they weigh?

You are right, omniyus.

Or are you left?? XD

For SidereaAquila's second one, 99 pounds?
And the first one, he ends up when he began, but he lives for possibly 70-80 years. It's not really distinguishable from his choices or possible accidents for how long he lives. Maybe even forever?

SidereaAquila
For number 1
You never said he died.

Clarification for number one--how long does he live from an outsider's (non-time-traveler's) perspective?

And Noninjas--it's not 99 pounds.

100 Pounds then?

Nope, not a hundred pounds. It's weirder than that.

50 pounds?

Right ninja.

Siderea-
98lb?

wow I'm lost....

Ninja is right with 50 lbs.

I have one! ^^

What breaks, but never falls? What falls, but never breaks?

DAWN, DUSK? night, day? (something along those lines)

I'm saying Dawn.

Oh! I have one!

A man is running home one day, he met a guy in a mask and never made it home. What happened?

Was he playing baseball?


Here's a simple one: I have one bed and one foot. but for some reason I can not walk nor think? What am I

Ummm... I'm guessing, a cliff, a waterfall, a river, or someone who lost a leg.

Anyway, I have one!(I didn't read all the other entries so I don't know if it's already been done).

A woman shoots her husband, drowns him, then hangs him. She also eats dinner with him the next day. How is this possible?

hint: They're both alive.
