you may pick one guard to ask one question before you pick a door to go through ... what is it you ask??

You say "If I ask the other guard which room will kill me, what would he say?"

You say "If I ask the other guard which room will kill me, what would he say? So if you ask the person who is the truth teller, he would say "this room" and then if you ask the liar he would say the same thing. therefore just go in the opposite door they tell you"

Anyone figure out the chess puzzle yet??

I just remembered another good riddle

"You are in a concrete room, with a concrete roof and concrete floor. The door is made of steel, and locked. The windows have steel bars on them, and there's no way you can fit through them. The only things in the room besides yourself is a wooden table, and a large mirror. How do you get out of the room?"

There is a rich couple who live in a round house. They go out one night and leave their son and all their servants at home. They return to find out that all of their valubles are missing. They decide to investigate. They go to the cook first. They say, "what were you doing while we were out?" the cook answers, "I was at the store buying Parmesan Cheese." They go to their son. They ask him the same question. He says, "I was playing with my toys." They go to the maid. They ask her the same question. SHe says, "I was sweeping this corner." Who took the valubles?

The maid. There are no corners in a round house!

There is a boy at school on the playground. A bully comes up to him and whispers a word in his ear. He says, "what's that word mean?" the bully says, "I'm not going to tell you!" so he goes up to a playground monitor. He tells her the word and asks what it means. She says, "Inside! Now!! Go see your teacher!!" So he goes inside, and the teacher says, "Charlie! What are you doing in so early?" He says, "Well, I got in trouble because this bully told me this word." He tells her the word and asks what it means. She says, "Go see the principal!!! I never want to see you in this classroom again!" So he goes to the principal's office. The principal says, "Charlie, what are you doing? You're supposed to be out at recess!!" He says, "Well, I got sent to my teacher who sent me here because a bully whispered a word in my ear." He tells the principal the word. The principal expells him from school and sends him home. His parents want to know why he's home so early. He says, "Well, I got expelled from school by the principal, who I got sent to by my teacher, who I got sent to by the playground monitor, because someone whispered a word in my ear." He tells his parents the word and wants to know what it means. His parents say, "GET OUT OF THIS HOUSE!! WE'RE DISOWNING YOU!! WE NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN!!!!!!!!" So he leaves, very sad. As he's walking, he sees a homeless man. He goes through the same routine. The man chases him with a broken bottle. As he's crossing the street, he gets hit by a bus. What is the moral of this story?

I combined two riddles together, one my sister told me and one my friend told me. The one my sister told me is a lot longer, I just didn't feel like typing that much.

Answer: The moral of this story is look both ways before crossing the street!!! I know I'm evil.

Edit: Fweddie, Um...jump through the mirror?

You could try that, but then you'd only be hitting your head against the concrete wall. And breaking the mirror!

Lol, thats a good one! But pretty easy: Corners? What corners? XD

Lots of these probably work better if they're verbal and not typed out.

Answer: Break the mirror with the table, and use the shards to cut yourself out?
