first riddle, winners declared by first correct answer.

Riddle one:

I am bacterial waste, oh yes,
But just what type, can you guess?
Some put me on their fish and chips,
Others on floors to prevent slips.
Some put me on salads, some in stews,
Some on windows, even shoes.
So I'm bacterial waste, oh yes,
But my name can you guess?

jake297. i'm sorry to say that you have the incorrect answer, though that would definitely be a close second for me

as far as your riddle goes... that one has stumped me. it seems we are at a match. my riddle is still up however, as well as jakes (can i call you jake?).

In olden days you are a clever thief charged with treason against the king and sentenced to death. But the king decided to be a little lenient and lets you choose your own way to die. What way should you choose?

Theives are tried for theft not treason.

Theives are tried for theft not treason.


if they are caught thieving they are charged with theft, if they are caught committing treason, they are charged with treason. lets not try to disprove the realistic-ness of the story line, just concentrate on the riddle.

that being said, any thoughts on jakes or afterburner's riddles'?

-Answer #1: "The same thing Arkansas."

-Answer #2: "I don't know. Alaska."


this one is difficult, but we need to figure it out. hint?

new riddle.


There's a body lying dead on a bed and on the floor beside it is a pair of scissors. The scissors were instrumental in his death yet there"s no trace of blood. The body reveals no signs of any cuts or bruises. How could the person have been murdered with the pair of scissors?"

Ah... they're just puns. Say the answers out loud. P.S. both the answers are the correct answers. So I kinda gave you the answers in the same post as the riddle. Sorry for unclear communication on my part.

Dangit. I wish I were encyclopedia brown. But I'm bet that it has something to do with how the body was on the bed and how the scissors were on the floor.

oh oh, you silly. i love those kinds, simple, bite you in the head if it was a snake type word play.

But I'm bet that it has something to do with how the body was on the bed and how the scissors were on the floor.


ok ok, hint time. the scissors were not directly involved with his death, and the body and the scissors orientation is not related to the answer, however the bed is.
