"Nothing."
Potter, you can't guess the next one.
What's big on the bottom, small on the top, and has ears?
Well, okay, you can answer if no one else gets it for a while.

The problem with fairies !
-
While exploring the wild highlands of Scotland, Crazy Rob was captured by hostile wood fairies.
Smazze, the powerful chief of the fairies told him he could make one final statement which would determine how he would die.
If the statement he made was false, he would be boiled in water.
If the statement were true, he would be fried in oil.
Crazy Rob found neither of this options too his liking, so he made a statement that got him out of this seemingly impossible situation.
What is the one statement he could make to save himself?

Hey, try this on for size.
If you add zero it means no motion,
If you add value it's a mathematical notion,
As an adverb it means affermation,
And given power will corrupt a nation.
What is it?
To those slightly weeker of heart:
If I were in the sun,
and you were out of the sun,
What would the sun be?

How do they smoke? Have an argument? Erm, no, I think the phrase I'm trying to pun off of is, "steam coming out his ears", so that's a no-go. Were the cigarrettes already alight? Potter's riddle.... I keep getting hung up in the grammar of the thing. "If I were IN the sun" -image of a hydrogen atom. "and you were out of the sun" -image of a solar flare. "What would the sun be" -well, it'd still be the sun, obviously. Whether you or I were in or out of it wouldn't change it in the slightest, it's like the "St. Ives" riddle. So I'd say it's hint time. What, exactly, is that darn riddle really asking, anyway? Lol they throw one cigarette overboard and make the boat a cigarette lighter...Robin got it easy |

Three quick ones for ya-
What animal doesn't play fair?
You use it between your head and your toes, the more it works the thinner it grows. What is it?
It is in a rock but not in a stone, it is in marrow but not in a bone. It is in a bolster but not in a bed, it is not living, nor is it dead.

Cheetah and the letter "R" are correct. Very good, Doom.
"Teeth" is the wrong answer.
