Try, old buddy. You know I don't like to argue, so I won't go into the absurdity of using an early 1900's definition in order to support your case.


Sounds like you did. LOL.

I came over here for a respite from the bullshyt that goes on in the Political and Philosphy threads...and what do I find.

More bullshyt.

Here's a riddle for yez:

Why is there so much bullshyt in Internet forums?

Your question is probably rhetorical, but there's more than one answer to that riddle:

- On the Internet, one is not accountable for one's statements.
- Just about every idiot has access.
- Some people have too much time on their hands.
- There is a limited number of people to bullshyt with that we meet face-to-face on a daily basis. Internet forums increase that number greatly.

Of course, none of this applies to the folks in the Riddles forum. Wink

Where's Try? I haven't had my riddle fix for the day, and I'm sure he has some thoughts on Frank's riddle.

Using cosmic logic and reasoning, what is the next number in this sequence?

1 - 4 - 7 -

By amazing coincidence, the following words link the numbers. What is the next word?

HAT - LIFE - HEAVEN -


Now, using reverse cosmic reasoning:

5 - 9 - 10 -




From four pages back, spoil please.

They were the only set of questions that defied the logic of Mark the Magnificent, as I understand he now wishes to be known.

Ok Whim, listen up; this is the deal, right. I give you the answers, and you tell me why. I do so only because your eye for detail and quest for the unknown is most praiseworthy. Oh! And ten bucks. :wink:

Using cosmic logic and reasoning, what is the next number in this sequence?
1 - 4 - 7 - 11 - (Then any number...that?)

By amazing coincidence, the following words link the numbers. What is the next word?
HAT - FISH - HEAVEN - ELEVEN - (Or any word thatÂ…?)

Now, using reverse cosmic reasoning:
5 - 9 - 10 - 15 - (Then any number...that?)

I noticed the straight lines in the words. I was trying to relate the numbers to vertical, horizontal, and/or diagonal lines.

Now you're in for it; you talked about it.

Now I'm taking about it.

Nee!
